- from I-5, take the arlington/darrington exit #208.
- head toward arlington (right if you are going north, left if you are going south).
- keep driving straight. you will cross over highway 9 and see downtown arlington.
- go straight through the first roundabout.
- you will come to a 3-way intersection at the corner of division and olympic. our building is on the left. it is a big old stucco church and looks like the alamo.
- parking is available on the street, in the gravel parking lot by the post office, or behind our building by the john l. scott real estate building. please do NOT park in the lot next to our building! it belongs to the cascade building next door and you will get towed. seriously.
- go inside the main doors and go left at the bathrooms, up the red & black staircase. go right at the top of the stairs, through the tattoo shop, and my door is straight ahead. If I am not upstairs, I am probably having lunch in the cafe! feel free to ask the barista downstairs.
none right now, check back!

I go to Kelsi at Rivendell Hair in Arlington, WA because Kelsi is unlike any stylist I've ever had do my hair. She is not only a master with hair, she is creative and pleasant to be around. I've seen her artistry and she can do anything. In fact, I believe she may be one of the best in the industry. -Beth
I absolutely love my hair! It's hard to find hair stylists who will take the time to do a good job...Thanks for the AWESOME hair!!! - Soleil
Rivendell Hair is the coolest salon I've ever been to. It's such a comfortable atmosphere and you really know what you're doing. I like how you actually ask me if I like something before you move on to the next, until my hair's perfect. Every time I come there I leave satisfied. I live in Seattle and it's totally worth the drive out to Arlington for quality. And just so you know people always complement me on my hair -it's so cute! - Alicia
Kelsi did my hair for a photo shoot in California. She made my hair have a very bold look but it really suited me. Her style is awesome and she really works with your bone and face structure to come up with the right combination of make-up and hair. Kelsi also has interesting techniques of getting your hair to do what ever she wants it to do. I am very confident in her work and would use her again if she ever comes back to California. -Heather
Thank you soooooooo much for finding me. Bangs or no, I will definately keep coming back!!! I absolutely love the atmosphere there, I couldn't be happier with what has become of that old building. And not just hair, but the veggie cafe and shop as well . . . I love it! Arlington finally has somewhere new and exciting to go! - Hailee
Well, lets all admit it, kelsi is the BEST. She loves what she does and that's why she is so good. I love my hair now that you did it. You were really awsome about trying to keep the stuff you cut off at least 10 inches [so it could be donated to charity], that was really sweet of you.I Idid not know what I wanted done to my hair and you totally came up with my 'do, so yeah you rock!!!! - Eli
Kelsi cut off about 8 inches from my hair last January and styled it into a stacked bob. It came out perfectly! The layers turned under how they were supposed to, and even after I've grown it for a year I still haven't needed to have it shaped. -Dana
Yes ma'am, you do have wicked style. Thanks for all of the times you have done my hair, you're the best at interpereting my ideas and actually making them happen. Stylist to stylist, you're the greatest. - Elizabeth
You're a mad scientist & my hair is the awesome. Thank you! - Rebecca
