Hey there, I’m Amanda Riley!
Most days you can find me raising my newborn son, Rooney, sipping coffee at my newly opened coffee shop Heavy Water, hiking local trails or Disneyland! I am most known for my expert hair coloring skills, specifically blondes, coppers & brunettes! I love serving my clients one appointment at a time, Whether it’s giving you a break from your daily routine, an ear to listen to or your #dreamhair!
The things I am most passionate about are; my husband, our newborn son and dogs — Wendy & Douglas. Establishing long-term relationships with clients and growing the beauty community in Los Angeles through my educational event, The Glow Social are what makes my heart full.
I love serving people who are looking for a home in a salon; a place to feel comfortable & build a relationship with their hair stylist. Relationships built by creating trust knowing that I will preserve the integrity of your hair while making steps toward your #dreamhair! I am lucky to show clients how to create longevity in their hair by suggesting styling tips, products for home and low maintenance color!
As a hair stylist I’ve been spotlighted on numerous blogs, worked on various film & photo sets and been featured in fashion magazines. I’ve spent my career focusing on continued education and received the highest form of Wella colorist certification in February of 2016. This certification has allowed me to focus on the chemist side of hair coloring and helping shape the future of young colorists to come!
