ABOUT US
Hey there! I’m Rachel, a laid-back stylist who loves a good laugh, lived-in haircolor, and creating a space that feels like your favorite cozy escape. I’m currently at Etherea Beauty, which is tucked just outside the heart of downtown Olympia and designed with a chill, dark academia aesthetic that’s equal parts moody and welcoming. I specialize in natural-looking, low-maintenance color that grows out beautifully and fits effortlessly into your everyday life. Whether you're here to unwind or switch things up, I'm all about making you feel at home, and leaving with hair you love! If this sounds like your type of hairstylist, book an appointment today!! I’m excited to meet you already ❤️ My experience: I started beauty school in Centralia my senior year of high school and earned my cosmetology license in 2018, since then I have completed numerous classes about advanced coloring, cutting, and extension techniques. A few to highlight: -Complete Extension Certification from The Hair Shop -Masters of Balayage Course Completion -Advanced Event Hair and Updo Techniques -Precision Cutting and Advanced Layering Techniques I worked at a corporate salon and left right before the pandemic, then moved into a local salon, LoneStar, in 2021. After a lot of personal life changes, I decided to pursue a business degree and stepped away from the salon to focus on school. I graduated from the University of Washington with my Bachelor’s of Business Administration in June 2025, and am ready to return to the salon! I am located inside Etherea Beauty Sanctuary at 326 5th Ave SE Olympia, WA 98501. There is lots of street parking, along with a few nearby lots. You can also park at Pet Works across the street, which is a first-come, first-serve space. Etherea is a shared space, with Artes Tenebris Chiropractic and After Dark Pole & Aerial Movement. You may see dancers come and go throughout your appointment, but the dance studio is behind a closed wall. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to contact me! I strive to create a space where everyone is welcome and comfortable.
