welcome! i’m Riley, a color, cutting, and extension specialist located in St. Louis Missouri.
I'm extremely passionate about creating modern lived in colors, beautiful and effortless haircuts, as well as extensions that are invisible, natural looking, and comfortable. In my chair, every client receives a customized experience and a relaxing space to unwind, so you leave feeling refreshed and beautiful with the most effortless hair. Beyond your first appointment, we'll outline a hair maintenance plan together.
I’ve been doing hair for 5 years and I'm in love with the way hair can transform you from the inside, out (big or small transformations are always welcome). My favorite services are lived-in blondes, dreamy brunettes, and invisible hand tied extension work. Every appointment starts with a comprehensive form so you can share your hair goals or any struggles you are having. This ensures you will always be in love with your hair, and you're never left feeling unheard.
When I’m not behind the chair, you can find me spending time with my dog Bunny, painting, watching reality tv/movies, enjoying a drink at a local bar with my girls, or finding the best Mexican food in STL.
Let's connect and give you the hair of your dreams!

Just got done with my hair appointment with Riley. It was such a great experience! The intake form was great and helped set up a great appointment. I have a lot of issues with psoriasis and he helped suggest options that would be best for me. He really knows hair!

I've been seeing Riley for a while now and followed him when he moved to Petal Hair Lounge. He is so warm, welcoming, and is a true artist! I always feel so much more confident after he does my hair, and honestly, he's just so much fun to talk to! Never a dull moment. The salon is so cute, and everyone is so nice! It feels like a little community! Worth every penny.
