 My name is Stephanie Dozeman and I am a hairstylist at Riley James Salon. I have been in the hair industry for 3 1/2 years. My passion is to make my clients feel beautiful while keeping up with the latest trends. My favorite part about what I do is getting to experience the emotion and joy from the person in my chair when they see the final transformation. I take pride in my work and enjoy the relationships I get to build with my clients. A few of my favorite services are dimensional color, Balayage, blonding, and updos. Outside the salon I am a wife and full time boy mom of two. I am accepting new clients and would love the opportunity to have you in my chair.

 Hey, I’m Madison! I am a second generation hairstylist that is obsessed with helping people feel their most beautiful. In 2016 I moved to Nashville which is where I attended cosmetology school and started my career. As much as I miss my favorite city, moving home to be closer to family and raise my amazing baby boy has been such a blessing. Now I get the incredible opportunity to bring just a bit more beauty to the West Michigan area! Balayage, textured cuts and teaching my guests how to achieve their perfect hair at home are my absolute favorite things to do. I am accepting new guests and would love the opportunity of having you in my chair. If you have any questions about scheduling or the cancellation policy please don’t hesitate to message me!

  Hey there! My name is Lily! I have been a licensed cosmetologist for 14 years, though my passion for hair started much earlier.  Some of the services I love to offer and specialize in is color/blonding, dimensional color, and foilyage. The best part of being behind the chair for me is seeing that you smile at the end of the service. That’s what drives me. That’s what fuels my passion for this industry. When I’m outside of the salon, I love spending time with my wonderful husband, son, family and friends! I would love to have the opportunity to make your day.
