Yelp has delivered again! I was looking for a new hair stylist after using the same one for 6 years. I wanted someone who had expertise in blond highlights that stay blonde and fresh. My hair can sometimes get an orange tint to it when it is highlighted and I was tired of that happening and spending time to get it fixed. Not to mention, my hair was fried and frizzy. I found this salon and booked a hair appt with Kevin. Kevin is super personable, listened to what I wanted, was realistic in what we could achieve, and told me it would take 2-3 times to get my hair to the place I wanted it. Well, I just finished my third appt and I am in LOVE with my hair. It is as healthy as it has been in years and is a vibrant, beautiful blond color. He recommended products which I use religiously, which has really helped my hair healing process. Kevin is always on time for appts, easy to book with, and works quickly and efficiently. What used to take upwards of 3.5 hours, now takes 2.5 at the most. He prices are on par with an upscale salon, which I am fine paying, since he does such a great job. Turns out, a lot of people I know go to him. It is worth the drive to Yelm from Olympia, for sure. The salon is beautiful inside, with a nice ambiance, music, and fun chatter throughout. They carry an excellent selection of quality products. Easy parking as well. I am a fan and am so thankful I found Kevin. read more

Saw Marcela for a foil and small haircut. My ends are bleach blonde but my roots grow out dirty blonde. I explained my goal is to be completely bleach blonde but I damaged my hair by doing it myself. I explained what I've been doing at my regular salon is just foil my grow out. The top is always a bit darker but I do like my hair bleach blonde. I even said my natural color makes my hair look dirty. She was careful with the processing of the foils, however, we never discussed toning my hair. I do not tone my hair. She toned my hair, the ends, the fresh foils everything. So what I ended up with is an all over darker color that covered up the new bleached foils. Now why would I bleach my hair to then in the same 10 minutes go darker? Not a lot I can do to fix it because my hair is already damaged. I've stripped it with a clarifying shampoo about 8x, used purple shampoo and considered a bleach wash. I was getting my hair done for a trip to Vegas in 2wks. Not enough time to get it redone and risk losing hair. She did do a good haircut. Overall I paid for what I did not want, darker toned hair. I was quite upset and a little frantic when I got out of the darker salon lights and saw the color. Inside I thought it was just the darker lights, at first I was pleased with the result but I hadn't realized it was muted and darker. The golden hair that comes thru with a foil, was covered up and dull. I called to ask what could I do and no one ever called me back. I paid $350 and the stress of trying to get the toner out of my hair. read more

I just love this salon in Yelm! It is truly worth the drive from Tacoma. Greg is a phenomenal hair colorist & stylist. His hair coloring skills create rich shades with such depth & highlights that strangers stop me to ask where I get my hair done! Recent salon upgrades truly enhanced my visits The salon experience starts when you step inside. It is visually beautiful, welcoming & friendly all at the same time. A real stress buster! The recent addition of candles, soaps and other self-pampering items for sale even lets you take some Salon Nouveau home! Highly recommend Greg & the Salon Nouveau experience! read more

Greg is the best he always has me feeling like a brand new woman when I leave the shop. Greg is so easy to talk to and he is very knowledgeable. read more

This is a great salon! The owners are very friendly and professional. They gave me the exact color and cut I wanted. I would highly recommend going here. read more

Gregory, the owner, took me right in as a walk-in. I'm so happy I found Salon Nouveau. My sister is getting married and I needed to get a really good haircut and he did a perfect styling of my hair. He studied the cow licks on my head, of which I have a lot! He figured out how to tame my mane! It was so good that I put another appointment down in the books 3 weeks from today. A fun, neat, clean environment where lots of conversation and laughs were to be had! I even bought some Gibbs® Voodoo beard, hair, tattoo oil. I'm sans tattoos, but it'll be good for everything else! read more

Salon Nouveau - Hair Salons Near Me - Yelm, Washington

This is the best salon I've been to! Super friendly and knowledgeable, I highly recommend any stylist that works here. The Salon is very clean, pricing is fair, and their work is amazing! I was able to be seen as a walk-in, immediately. I walked out with a hair-cut that was perfect! As well as product that was recommended based off of being an actual good fit, and not just a sales tactic. I will be a repeat customer, and will encourage everyone I know to do the same! read more

I was late after getting the time wrong. She was so understanding, and still cut my hair. She also listened, and didn't chop my hair like most stylists when they see long hair. I will be back... at the RIGHT time. read more

Worst customer service ever. Kevin made my wife feel so horrible about her hair saying it was damaged. Which is not the case my wife uses Olaplex hair treatment due to her hair being damaged from previous salons. She has not touched her hair in over a year and religiously did her hair treatments. She was looking forward to her appointment that she booked 3 months ago. Instead of being professional and giving some tips as it is a hair salon. He just told her he wouldn't touch it and didn't give any alternative advice or options. Worst experience for her will never come back or recommend this place. read more

When was the last time you walked in to a salon and they listened to you? Ever go to a salon and not have them push product on you or tell you how dry and damaged your hair is? For me, never. Until Gregory. I was so nervous, as I've had awful experiences in the past. But I had nothing to worry about. I walked out with exactly what I asked for (better even!). I have found my new salon! Thank you Greg! read more

Salon Nouveau - Sun kissed by Greg! Just in time for my wedding!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Yelm, Washington

I am very picky about my haircut and moved to the area recently from out of state, so I needed to find a new hair stylist. I went to see Jade and she did an amazing job (better than my old hair stylist I'd had for about 10 years). And the prices were really reasonable. A great bonus was the products they use to wash and style your hair are great quality. I have very sensitive skin and used to have to wash my hair shortly after my appts. with my old stylist because my head would itch, but my scalp was not irritated at all after this appt. I highly recommend this salon and Jade! read more

I'm SO excited that Kevin and his team are 'home' again;-) Talent so worthy of 'big city' kudos, choosing to run their business and call Yelm their home instead:-) Expect nothing but the best and the latest in styling technique and trends, as well as great customer service and styling tools and products. All offered with a smile and warm welcome that is just to rare these days:-) read more

Got in the dame day I called for a cut. I asked for the best and was given Jade. She was so so so professional and sweet. She really listened to what I wanted. She didn't push products which I love that and she rocked my hair. This place is a must. It's like walking into a New York Salon only in yelm. read more

Best Salon around hands down!! Came into Salon Nouveau after having my hair absolutely destroyed by so called "blonde specialists" and Greg saved my hair! He is a true miracle worker, my hair is now back to the bright blonde I wanted and my hair is actually healthy again.

I had been wanting to try Salon Nouveau for quite awhile but I have a hard time changing stylists. I made an appointment with Karli and I was not disappointed. She was personable and kept the conversation light and fun. She enlisted the help of Kevin and Gregory to help us decide on the right color for my hair and they nailed it. The cut and color were perfect and my hair even feels healthier. This is definitely a salon I will go back to. read more

It was my first time here and when I came in the receptionist didn't greet or say hi she just looked at me and went back to what she was doing. I waited over 5 mins until the someone asked if I had an appointment. I had made a comment that she looked familar, she told me she was the owner but the way she was responded was prude as if I wasn't good enough to know her. This was about 5 years ago and I'm writing it now because I'm looking for a new hair dresser and although the hair dresser who did my was friendly and did an almost perfect job I won't come back here because of the owner's attitude. read more

I have been a client of Kevins for a little over two years, and I have never been disappointed. I can walk in without knowing what I want, he works his magic and I leave feeling beautiful. He is creative, honest and willing to do whatever it takes to make his clients happy. The other stylists in the salon are equally as skilled and dedicated to quality work! I HIGHLY recommend this salon and Kevin!! Best atmosphere, great products, and amazing services. Also I should add that I get compliments on my hair almost daily! read more

I love Salon Nouveau! I look forward to my appointments because this place is like home. Everyone here is so friendly and they treat me like family. Kevin is the most amazing stylist, an artist really. I always leave feeling and looking beautiful. I get more compliments on my hair since I've been going to Kevin. I'm almost afraid to tell people who does my hair because I want to keep him all to myself. read more

Thirty years in the making, and FINALLY a stylist gets my hair truly blonde, Crystal is PHENOMENAL don't wait run to see her you'll be thrilled with the experience and RESULTS! read more

Typically I think people with bad experiences post reviews more then Good experiences but I'm not that type of person. I'm going to lay out what was good of my experience along with the million things that went wrong. Good The salon was really decorated neat and they were very friendly. Offered beverages to clients and they also have waxing on site. Cut was ok according to what I asked. Bad My stylist in particular, Jade, chemical burned my forehead from the color. I had color on my forehead and on the sides of my face and she didn't get it off...I left the salon looking like I just died my own hair and got it everywhere. I asked for chunky blonde highlights in my dark brown hair and got really thin highlights. My roots are orange now and my under layers blondes are orange. Very amature color job. And it took 3 hours! !!! There were very willing to do what they could to make this right after I left I called because I hadn't noticed any of this until I was closer to a mirror and realized how terrible it looked. The highlights were in some spots and then I have some spots with none. The highlights also don't go to the roots they start further down. read more

I went here for a cut, because my normal stylist was out of town and I needed something with later hours. I was 5 minutes early for my appointment, and was told by my stylist that she was running about 20 minutes behind... That should have been my first red flag. Then when she finally sat me in her chair she did a piss poor consultation. Asked me what I wanted, when I explained I just need my layers blended, since my niece decided to cut a chunk out of my layers, but I wanted to keep the length. She then said o.k and begun to tell me how she's really great with long hair and that her Dad owns the salon so she's "got this", she shampooed my hair really fast and got me in her chair again with water running down my back. she then sectioned my hair and began cutting. I knew she messed up the moment she turned me away from the mirror and wouldn't turn me back until My hair was dry. She chopped it, 6" gone. Yeah.... She is really good at long hair, at chopping it off! the layers were so heavy, she did no texturizing so I had blunt choppy layers. I should have just waited until my stylist was back in town. I wouldn't even let her "fix" in fear she'd destroy my hair even more. I went back to my normal salon in McKenna and I have learned my lesson! read more

A little late writing my review, but better late than never. I came in, and arrived on time, with a same day appointment to see Paige. The previous customer ended up taking an hour and a half longer passed her appointment, but the staff was all very courteous and apologetic. I get it, things sneak up on ya. Paige was very friendly, warm and personable. She did my hair exactly to the specifics I asked and even ran next door to grab me a snack while I was processing. Clean salon, warm faces and competitive prices. I will be back for sure. read more

I decided to stop in on the chance they'd have a spot available. They didn't, but Kevin (the owner) was waiting on a client who hadn't shown yet. He said to give it five minutes, and if she didn't show, he'd take me. Lucky for me she didn't show, and he took me right away and provided great service. He washed, cut, and styled my hair and made sure I was happy with the length, texture, and style. I am not only happy with the services I received, but also the professionalism of the entire salon. I'd highly recommend Salon Nouveau, and I will be back again. This time, I'll make sure I have an appointment! read more

I got my hair done by Traci. Cut & color was perfect. She does exactly what you ask for. I was very specific about getting more body in the front of my thin hair. She gave me long layers that made my hair feel & look fuller. Plus no more grays. read more

For 35 years every hair dresser I've ever been to has said my hair is the thickest and most challenging hair they've ever cut. I've had a few decent cuts over the years but Gregory gave me the best cut! Sure, any cut might look good the first day, but he cut my hair so that it went with the direction my hair naturally wants to go in... and if you've got curly or thick hair with crazy cowlicks you know you can't just get any cut unless you want to go back every week and wear a hat to bed! YAY!!! And it cost me half of what I'm used to paying. AWESOME!!! read more

I had my first appt with Jade at Salan Nouveau. She is amazing. I have had my hair ruined by so many and she listened to my needs and its absolutly perfect. The color ive been trying to get for 2 years. I hope she posts the before and after. The whole salon is awesome Thanks and Hugs Jade and Kevin Julie read more

I just went here for the first time, to get a hair cut. Let me say, i came in looking like a curly mess & i came out looking like a hot mess. I would recommend jade, she did my hair very well. I definitely be coming back. read more

I just moved to Washington and had to find a new hair stylist after going to the same one for over 25 years. I was really nervous about this but got lucky when I found Salon Nouveau. Karli was my stylist and she did an amazing job!! I love my haircut! She was so friendly and easy to talk to and really knew what she was doing. She spent extra time showing me different ways I can style my hair and just had lots of great ideas and tips. This will be my new forever salon. :) read more

Yep, I make that crazy commute for Mr. Reliable....its comforting knowing I'm in very good, talented hands and that my hair will always look good when I leave. His salon in Yelm is my favorite yet.

Good stylists are busy! read more
