“My two daughters and I were in town for a wedding and we needed our hair done, so we found Ria and her adorable ‘Cottage Style Salon’.  We felt like we had stumbled onto a Goldmine.  What a find!!  What a neat atmosphere: the smell of essential oils and natural ingredients permeated the air.  We felt like royalty as she tended to us and did our hair according to the pictures we brought in.  She paid attention to detail and made any necessary changes along the way of doing each of our hairstyles.  One of my daughters was in the wedding party and everyone kept asking her ‘who did your hair? It’s amazing!!’  Anytime we come back to Colorado Springs, we are definitely coming back to Alive Beauty Company to see Ria”! ~Brenda

“Simply stated…Ria is phenomenal! I’ve gone to her for 20 years; my two grown daughters and granddaughters also go to Ria for all their hair care and styling…she is genuine and authentic in everything she does. We actually flew her out to Monterey California for our daughter’s wedding…to do the bridal party hair, and more so, just to be a part of our family celebration! She’s a sweetheart…a true professional who is always striving to improve her skills and keep up with the latest styles and trends…she puts honesty and integrity first in her business and personal life too…we have loved her for all these years! Best of luck to you dear Ria…may success and happiness continue to bless your life! Hugs” – Jill Kluge

Hey Ria.  Thanks for the the hot haircut. My husband won’t stop saying ” damn you’re hot” lol. ~J

We moved here nearly 4 years ago and after some disappointing experiences at other salons I have finally found “my” stylist! I’ve had some pretty dodgy haircuts here before a chance meeting with Ria…now she has my hair back on track. My hair is wavy and often it seems other stylists get a bit too enthusiastic with thinning shears. Thanks goodness Ria is an expert with wavy and curly hair, so she just uses her good mojo and I leave her salon with a quality cut that stays looking great a very long time. I also appreciate that she uses only clean products. I don’t go often to see Ria because her hair cuts hold up and I’m growing out my hair…but I swear I’ll never go anyplace else in Colorado Springs!~Deb

Oh Ria FYI J’s most recent haircut gave me flashbacks to when I first met her. HOT!!! You did a great job~E

Every time I leave Ria’s studio I feel confident, healthy, and beautiful! My mother and I have been going to Ria for over ten years now. I even live in New York and I still only get my hair done by her in Colorado Springs because there is no one better! She recently started dying my hair a beautiful red and I get compliments on it all the time. Ria is professional and has a brilliantly creative eye for design and organic hair care. I highly recommend Alive Beauty Company. ~Marissa

Thanks Ria, so much for my cut and color on Tuesday! I love how it turned out. I’m really loving the pure plant color. Thanks, Nicole

Ria is the best Hairdresser I have ever been to. She has cut my hair for 19 years. She always has a vision what will look best for me when I wanted to make a change. She is patient, kind and thoughtful. She fights hard for her causes without compromising quality. She does her part to reach her vision for a non toxic world and is more than willing to give her time and energy to charitable causes. She is a MUST if you want the best!! ~Barbie
