Nieko is such a solid dude. He agreed to take me on a walk-in and went a bit overtime on a long term client that he cut for the whole family. I got a bit impatient, which I feel bad about, but Nieko was cool as a cucumber and funny, too. Nothing but good vibes. I could tell that his clients love him, and trust him. He's the kinda dude to know the entire City and treat them all like royalty. About the haircut: Flawless execution. Not a hair out of place. I'm now annoyed because I won't be able to find this quality of cut back down where I live, so I suppose I have to fly back up here, to my true "home", to get my next one. read more

Always an amazing experience getting a cut from Nieko. It's always welcoming, casual, and a phenomenal cut. I dont trust anyone other than Nieko to do consistent and quality cuts. read more

consistently giving me the best haircuts I've ever had. Cristina is who I usually have and she always executes what I'm looking for.

I was looking for a new barber for my very shy 5 year old. After asking around a friend recommended Olympian Barbershop. I was able to make an appointment very quickly online. Johnny was so kind and was able to chat up my little dude. A very cool, chill atmosphere. His hair looked so good and he is very happy with it. As we were walking out he asked me if it could be the only place we went from now on. read more

Place has no hours of operation and are always closed and they are not a one $ price. Way to expensive for a five minute haircut, that must be why there never open, they don't need the money. read more

My boy Mike is awesome! He does the best skin fades. He is prompt in his response during text message exchanges. Beautiful environment, Sanitized, and accessible. He expects perfection in his haircuts. Really cool in conversation as well. Five stars all the way!!! Awesome place to visit when you want to look your best. read more

I've had many bad experiences with my hubby coming home with a butchered haircut. Found this place on yelp and so glad we did! This is the first haircut he's had that I'm super happy about!

See all

5/5...'nough said really. I've been everywhere looking for a go to spot for years now - East to West coast. Read the other reviews and you get it. Quality work, quality people, quality spot. I don't plan on going anywhere else for the foreseeable future. read more

A great little barbershop tucked away in downtown Olympia. No frills, no gimmicks, just good conversation and a good cut. The store is fairly minimal and looks exactly like you'd expect an old, small-ish town barbershop to look. Staff are friendly and easy to talk to and don't spend too long futzing about with their job. The perfect place for Greener men to get a quick trim. read more

I get my hair cut by Rudy. He is by far the best barber and hair stylist I have ever had. His passion to give you the best haircuts for your face and personality shows after every visit. He takes pride in his work and wants to make sure your hair looks the best it can. Much thanks Rudy read more

Excellent news: Rudy is awesome! By far the best haircut you can get in town. Bad news: I made an appointment once with Rudy and when I went in he wasn't there. The other barber there that day said I could get my hair cut by them. The other barber did an okay job, but I could have used less of the barber's "I know everything" conversation. I couldn't get a word in, at all. A month later I decided to stop by right when the shop was supposed to open and it was not open. I truly appreciate Rudy's skills, but be open when you say you're going to be open and be there when you booked an appointment.... read more

Worst haircut I have ever had. Blonde lady was nice enough but she clearly rushed. I asked for a fade and she gave me a bowl cut in the back and didn't shape it at all on the top. read more

This is a quintessential small town barber shop. It's a great place to get a good cut at a reasonable price. Zach was my barber and did a good job. read more

My husband had his hair cut by "the male barber" and he did such an awesome job that I wanted to go give him an extra tip! This gentleman knows how to do an impeccable fade. I have never seen my husband in a haircut quite that sexy. "The female barber" does a great job too, just slightly less sexy. But absolutely no complaints. Recommended for men with very short hair. read more

Rudy is excellent as far as price and professionalism. Came in for suavecito pomade ( the best out there by far) he was super helpful. I got my hair cut earlier by a female barber that In my mind did a great job but Rudy was able to point out flaws right away when I walked in and even showed them to me In the mirror. I was upset and will be going to him from now on for all my hair cuts and pomade purchases. Honest, helpful, and happy business practice. Doesn't get any better than that. Super confused as to why this business doesn't have more reviews on yelp. But hopefully I can help change that. read more

You can spend more, but you won't get better than Rudy. He is an artist, one of those people who puts his soul into his work, someone who sees the completed haircut before he starts. The quality of work is really, really excellent, but you don't get the sense he's an undiscovered talent hidden away. You get the sense this is how he wants to roll, doing it his way, treating everyone in the chair like he'd want to be treated. Highly recommend. read more

There is a new guy, who came over from another shop down the street. He is really friendly and offered just the right amount of chit chat. However, don't ask him to "leave a little on top" because he'll leave a lot. He'll leave it all! For $12 I can't complain. read more

Man, Rudy is great! I will give him 5 stars all day long! Tony read more

By far the worst haircut I have received. I have an executive contour cut and she not only messed up my hard part, but she failed to even trim completely around my ears and get the same length throughout the style. THEN I was told that if I had come at a different time that the other barber would have done a much better job than her for this specific style... Couldn't have told me before? One star for local, one star for old school atmosphere. read more

I heard a lot of good things about Rudy the barber here in this salon. Great prices that's affordable for awesome service and fresh cuts! He also has men hair products here for a really really cheap price than other local barber shops around. It's located in a cute cozy street downtown Olympia with cute pastries and chocolate shops around if you ever decide your sweet tooth needs satisfactory read more

Stopped in for my first time today. I was a little skeptical, as I am with most barbers for the first time. However, I was extremely impressed with the cleanliness and quality of work. The attention to detail was of sorts seldom found these days. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend making this your next stop for a haircut/styling. read more

Rudy is friendly and know what he is doing. Highly recommended. I was looking for a certain cut to suit my style. He took his time to figure out my type of hair and didn't just dive into cutting it like most places I have been to. I'm super happy with my hair cuts and I will never let anyone else touch it. read more

If you know how to ask for what you want, this is the place to go. Honestly, most of the barbershops in Olympia are pretty great, but the barbers here are low profile and rough cut. Being inside feels a little like being a part of a Paul Thomas Anderson movie, and the whole experience might feel surreal, but you'll walk out looking great if you know what you want. Cash preferred. I believe Tommie takes card, but I've had the new guy give me haircuts. read more

This is an old school barbershop. I've had both Tommie and Zach cut my hair, and they both do a decent job. For $12, it's a heck of a deal.

Zach, the male barber, is one of the best barbers in town as far as i am concerned. He offers good, clean conversation during and after the haircut and is always very attentive to your needs during the cut. Never had any problems with my cuts. Also, $12 is an incredible deal. Cant go wrong. read more

Tommie is as good as you can get! I've been having my hair cut by her for nearly 20 years and nary a problem. What an icon of Olympia! You CANNOT do better than Tommie! read more

I was searching for a good place to get my hair did in olympia and man did I pick the wrong place. I would have rather gone to great clips. My usual cut is really simple and she managed to really mess it up. Good thing hair grows back. I've done much better for $12. And to top it off, they only accept cash and check. read more

I have been getting my hair cut here for the last 6 years, the best cut of my life and always good. If you are looking for someone to cut your hair old school this is the place to come. I do not have another place I would go and for $12.00 wow! read more

First, now open at 10 not 9. Second, not even open at 10. Out of habit for 20 yrs. of cuts by Tommie, I stopped back by even knowing she was no longer there. Basic haircut shorn on the sides and thinning hair left a bit longer on the top. Took three requests to get the sides cut down. Fiddling and fussing instead of simply cutting. Add to this the male barber, unoccupied with a client, was talking with the woman cutting my hair (laboriously) about how to puff up a charge by simply using more tools. Unprofessional, ya think? When done, instead of folding up the cutting apron she used a hair dryer to blow the cuttings off of my shoulders all over my shoes and the counter. Unsanitary and just plain lazy, ya think? For $25 I'm leaving NO tip. These people should understand that taking more time for a simple haircut does not impress those who know how simple it can be and what is a fair price. Retain one of Tommie's customers? NO. Lose a long-standing customer of Tommie's? YES. read more

My favorite barber used to work there and I really liked it. He left and is at a shop in Tumwater now once a week by appointment.
