Rhiannan Carlson – Stylist / Educator

Hi I’m Rhiannan, everyone calls me Ree! I’ve been doing hair for 8 years. For over a year I’ve also been an educator for the brand R&Co, which has some of my favorite hair products like the volumes sprays for weightless lift. I love all things beauty, and I do makeup and facial waxing in addition to hair for everyday looks or special occasions. When I’m not in the shop you might spot me running laps around the neighborhood, or listening to a true crime podcast (it kind of scares me but I still love to listen) I can’t wait to meet you and help you feel your best!
