“College Barber Shop”
Still Serving SPU Community After 60 Years
In 1953, Ted Olsen opened the College Barber Shop across from Tiffany Loop at Seattle Pacific College. In 1958, Ted’s son, Lyle, was given his own chair, and in 1984, Lyle’s daughter, Lynn, completed the family tradition by opening her own business in the space.
Although not officially affiliated with Seattle Pacific, the College Barber Shop, now Styling Etc. (Lyle) and Best Image Salon (Lynn), has served hundreds from the University community over its 60-plus years, including athletes, coaches, professors, and even former presidents such as C. Hoyt Watson and C. Dorr Demaray. Read the full story.
