The Refined Man

🎉🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAKENA! 🎂🎉

Today we’re celebrating our amazing Olympia receptionist, Makena! 🥳✨

Makena is truly a breath of fresh air! She has a way of bringing a little extra sunshine into the shop and always seems to find a way to put a smile on everyone’s face. ☀️💛

She plays such a huge part in keeping our Olympia shop running smoothly, and we are so incredibly grateful for everything she brings to our Refined Man family. From keeping things organized to taking care of our clients and team, Makena is an important part of what makes our shop feel like home. ❤️

Makena, we hope this next trip around the sun brings you so much happiness, growth, laughter, and success. We’re so excited to watch all the amazing things that are in store for you in this next chapter! ✨

Help us wish Makena a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎈🎉

🎉❤️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHAWNA! ❤️🎉

It’s hard to sit down and put into words just how truly amazing Shawna is. Some people come into your life and make an impact, but Shawna is the kind of person who leaves a lasting mark on everyone lucky enough to know her.

She is constantly going the extra mile for the people she cares about. Whether it’s her team, her clients, her family, or a friend in need, Shawna gives so much of herself to make sure the people around her feel supported, valued, and loved.

The love she has for her team and her clients is truly unmatched. She has built so much more than a business — she has built a family. A place where people are encouraged to grow, supported through the hard days, celebrated on the good ones, and reminded that they matter.

Shawna, we hope you know just how much you mean to all of us. Your hard work, generosity, loyalty, compassion, and huge heart do not go unnoticed. We are incredibly grateful for everything you do, not only for The Refined Man, but for each and every person whose life you touch.

Today, we celebrate YOU — the heart behind so much of what makes The Refined Man special. ❤️

We hope your birthday is filled with the same love, happiness, and kindness that you so freely give to everyone else.

Happy Birthday, Shawna! 🥳❤️
We love you, we appreciate you, and we are so incredibly thankful for you! Here’s to another year of making a difference, chasing dreams, and reminding everyone around you what it means to truly care. 🥂✨

With love,
Your Refined Man Family ❤️✂️

This past Sunday, some of our amazing team members—Shawna, Jaime, Will, Kelli, Danielle & Cole—had the pleasure of volunteering their day at the Back to School Bash at the Thurston County Fairgrounds. ❤️

It was such a special day filled with fun, community, and plenty of smiles. We were honored to give 80 kids a fresh new look for their first day of school! ✂️🎒

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this incredible event possible. We’re so grateful to be part of a community that continues to pour into our youth. We hope to see you all again next year! ❤️

This Sunday, The Refined Man crew will be at the Thurston County Fairgrounds, from 10-4 giving FREE haircuts for Youth kids going back to school. There is so much more than just free haircuts. Its a day filled with fun and a lot of other awesome activities. We are so excited to be able to give back to our community, and to be a part of making such an impact on all the kids going back to school.

Community is at the heart of everything we do, and this past Tuesday we were honored to be a part of something truly special.

Our owner, Shawna, and our Centralia manager, Cole, had the pleasure of attending the United Way of Lewis County’s Power of the Purse event. The Refined Man was proud to donate a purse filled with self-care and pampering goodies, along with a gift certificate for a hair service, to help support this incredible fundraiser.

It was an unforgettable evening filled with generosity, compassion, and community. Seeing so many people and local businesses come together to support such an important cause was inspiring, and we’re grateful to have been a small part of it.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped organize this amazing event and to all those who attended, donated, and supported the mission of making a positive impact throughout Lewis County. Your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed.

We’re already looking forward to being part of this wonderful event again next year!

This past Friday, two of our managers, Cole and Tyler, along with two of our amazing clients, Jared and Elijah, had the opportunity to represent The Refined Man at the Centralia-Chehalis Chamber of Commerce Annual Golf Tournament.

What an incredible day it was! From the friendly competition to connecting with so many local businesses, it was a fantastic reminder of what makes our community so special. Every hole featured a local business with a unique activity, making the entire tournament a fun and memorable experience. The day wrapped up with a delicious lunch, exciting raffle prizes, and plenty of laughs.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to the staff at Riverside Golf Club, the Centralia-Chehalis Chamber of Commerce, all of the volunteers, and every business that helped make this event such a success. Your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed, and we’re grateful to have been a part of it.

We’re already looking forward to next year’s tournament! ⛳️💈.
