I am Jessi, co-Owner and Stylist at EcoHair ,originally from Alaska, and I proudly serve our Portland, OR, community. As a mom of two, I know exactly how important it is to be a conscious consumer and reduce our environmental footprint. I believe you can do so in a relaxing and beautiful environment. That is why we have designed our salon experience to leave you feeling uplifted, relaxed, and more confident than before. 

I’ve been a stylist for over 20 years and have never been more in love with my craft. I specialize in simplifying your routine, working with your hair's natural texture, and helping you learn how to recreate your hairstyle at home so that it looks as fresh as when you left the salon day in and day out. 

While most stylists offer a great first visit and solid maintenance after that, I see my role as your stylist differently. I work with all of my guests to create a long-term haircare plan to ensure their cut, color, and style are easy to maintain and that you will always feel energized and energized in a routine. I’ll check in throughout the year to see if any issues have come up, and we can work through them together. 

When I am not in the salon, I am active in my community. I love volunteering at my kids' schools and spending time in nature or my garden. I love native plants, restoring natural habitats for the ecosystem, and learning about our local watershed. I also love learning about social justice projects around us and the world and how Indigenous cultures honor the relationships between plants, land, and ourselves. Every day, I honor the original stewards of this land, and I work to live in reciprocity and respect by getting to know the history and current tenders of the land. I am learning how to incorporate the plants that grow at home in my garden by taking classes on herbalism from Indigenous mentors. You may try a calendula salve or hydrosol that I lovingly crafted.
