History
Returning home from sunny San Diego, Rissa J. brings expertise without pretension. Rissa began as an apprentice for the artistic director of Paul Mitchell, became senior stylist at Southern California's top salon Hyde-Edwards, and later opened Salon on 30th. During that time she developed a true passion for teaching; she was a national educator of hair extensions as well as an international artist and educator for Kerastase Paris. In addition to her years of experience as a stylist, educator, and salon owner, Rissa has worked with several designers at New York Fashion Week including Jason Wu, Jill Stuart, Creatures of the Wind, Suno, Zac Posen, Elle Magazine, Altuzarra, Rodarte, Thakoon, Bridal NYFW, Carolina Hererra, Ramona, and Monique Lhullier. The signature of Rissa's work holds an emphasis on natural beauty with chic sophistication. She is excited to share her craft back in her home state of Idaho.
