Meet Amanda

THE FOUNDER

Amanda is not only passionate about hair, but passionate about the experience that comes with it — which is why she created Riot Hair.

It's always been about her clients leaving feeling like themselves. Just a better, more confident version.

Her salon is a private, one-on-one space where you can actually talk — about what you want, what's worked, what hasn't, and what's realistic. No pressure, no noise, just a proper conversation and a plan you both feel good about.

Hair is one of those things that's deeply personal, and Amanda takes that seriously. Whether you're after a change or just want to finally feel consistent and happy with what you've got, she's here for it.

Hair done with intention.
Results that speak for themselves.

The Process

Complimentary Consultation

Every great result starts with a great conversation. Before anything else, Amanda sits down with you one-on-one to talk through your hair goals, your lifestyle, and what's actually going to work for you.

No rushing, no assumptions.

01

Your Private Appointment

This is where it all comes together. Your appointment is private, unhurried, and entirely focused on you.

The plan you made together in your consultation is exactly what gets delivered — no surprises, no last minute changes, just the result you came for.

02

Ongoing Care

Great hair isn't a one-time thing. Before you leave, Amanda will chat through when you should come back to keep your hair looking and feeling its best. No hard sell, just good advice.

Butterfly Weft

Extensions

Some women spend years wishing their hair felt like theirs again.

Maybe it's postpartum shedding that's taken more than you expected. Maybe it's been thinning for a while, or it never had the volume you wanted. We've helped women through all of it.

Butterfly wefts are ultra-thin, lie completely flat against your scalp, and provide volume that boosts confidence.

No glue. No bulk. No giveaway ridges. Just seamless, full hair that moves, blends, and behaves like it actually grew that way.

Testimonial

I had such a fantastic experience with Amanda at Riot Hair Studio. She is incredibly lovely to work with and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. She asked thoughtful questions to really understand what I wanted, and the results were even better than I hoped for.

She fitted my hair extensions beautifully, they blend seamlessly with my natural hair and feel so comfortable. She also did my colour, which looks amazing, and I really appreciated the high quality products she uses.

The studio itself is gorgeous and has such a welcoming vibe. Overall, I left feeling confident, cared for, and absolutely thrilled with my hair. I couldn’t recommend Amanda more.
