About Opal & Ivy

An Elevated Hair Salon in Vancouver, WA

A Sanctuary For Your Self-Care

At Opal & Ivy, the client experience is rooted in intentionality. We designed our space as a restorative retreat from the noise of daily life, where you can settle into your hair service without chaos or stress. We take the time to listen and understand your unique goals, ensuring you leave with hair that feels natural and easy to live in. Our desire is for Opal & Ivy to be a place where you truly want to hang out; a welcoming environment in which you can prioritize your well-being while feeling connected to a supportive, thriving village.

Rooted In Community, Growing in Style

At Opal & Ivy, our dream was to cultivate a collaborative sanctuary in Vancouver, Washington, where guests can escape the chaos and settle into a restorative hair experience. We believe that a thriving business takes a village, which is why we’ve built a space that supports independent stylists while fostering a deep-rooted team environment. Our name reflects this duality: Opal represents the multi-dimensional offerings and diverse clientele we host, while Ivy symbolizes the growth of the individuals and community partners who call our salon home.

Just checked out this new hair salon and wow—what a gem. The space is stunning - modern, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, so you feel relaxed the moment you walk in. Even better, the stylists are truly top notch. They’re skilled, attentive, and really take the time to understand what you want. I walked out loving my hair and already looking forward to my next appointment. Highly recommend if you’re looking for both great vibes and great results.

I've been going to Wendy for years and Emelia for several years as well. Both are excellent stylists! The new salon looks beautiful and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Opal & Ivy.

The shop has an open and airy feel to it. The hair professionals have space to work in and not feel like they are competing for air space. Love the vibe!!! Heidi has been cutting my hair for many years. She is awesome!! Wendy, is the best hair color expert! Together they made an unbeatable team. Thank you for the experience!

Great salon! Very welcoming, open and bright! Great sitting area! Comfortable chairs and wash stations. Lots of beverage offerings and snacks. Heidi is amazing! Been with her for 25 years!

Emelia gives AMAZING cuts!! Have been seeing her for a couple of years and always leave feeling fresh and like she really heard what I wanted. The new salon is inviting and clean. Already looking forward to next time!!

Beautiful salon. So relaxing and calming. Emelia has always given me a great short and spunky haircut. Stylist know what they are doing! Very talanted. Looking forward to my next appointment.

Amazing place and had a great experience there! Heidi was amazing and loved my hair after it was all done. Got lots of good compliments about it!

I haven't loved my hair in a long time but I know I have found my new "hair home." Wendy did a beautiful job with my highlights and listened to all the things I said I wanted. She is a true scientist when it come to the highlighting process, as well as an artist! She is so knowledgeable and personable. Emelia cut my fine, thin hair in a way that left me shaking my hair with confidence. The true test is when I wash and style my hair myself. I can say, every day has been a good hair day.

This Salon is so beautiful! Emelia did an amazing job. She listened to what I wanted and I am so happy with the result! They have great products that smell amazing.

WOW! What an amazing space and vibe! 5+ stars! I was treated like a princess with multiple drink options when I arrived and a received a fabulous color treatment. The ladies here are knowledgeable and you will be well taken care of.

The space was light, open, welcoming, and beautifully done. My stylist is the BEST, have been with Heidi for over 20 years now, excited for her new chapter in this new space.

Such a pleasant and fun visit! The atmosphere was relaxing, the care was thoughtful, and I left feeling refreshed and beautiful. A truly lovely experience from start to finish.

My first time visiting this new salon. It is well designed and very charming.

I followed Wendy to her new salon and it's gorgeous! Could not recommend it more!

Such a beautiful salon with top notch talent! I feel pampered the minute I walk into their space.

Beautiful salon with a fresh and clean space. Client service and attentiveness exceptional!!

Every detail of the newly opened Opal and Ivy is meticulously designed to give the client the best possible experience as well as desired result. Wendy, the owner and expert colorist, has created a wonderful space where I walk out feeling so much better than when I walked in. I have very challenging hair, but Wendy gets it and is truly an expert.

Wendy did the best color correction. I'm so happy with the color! Highly recommend

This lovely salon is bright, and cheery and I love, love love, my hairdresser HEIDI

Emelia was amazing (but I know all the ladies here are)! Had a good vision for my hair and it turned out gorgeous. This bright new studio is so spacious and has the best vibe. Easy parking hard to find these days

Just tried out a new salon and had such a great experience! The team of stylists is incredibly experienced, and you can really tell they collaborate and support each other—it creates such a positive, welcoming vibe. The space itself is bright, modern, and fun, which makes the whole visit feel elevated. Highly recommend if you’re looking for both talent and great energy in one place!
