Styles by Renee at Bella Trio

Some of you know me from behind the chair. Others know me as the woman behind Radiant Rise Creative. So, here is a little more about me. 👋🏽

I am Renee: hair artist, marketing director, Navy veteran, Radiant Rise founder, and Morrisville boy mom ×3.

Most days, I am bouncing between hair formulas, content calendars, AI tools, and entirely too many browser tabs. My own hair and makeup? A true 50/50 situation. 😂

Inside my camera roll: client hair, Radiant Rise selfies, and the rare photo of my grown boys that I instantly cherish.

Whether you are here for the hair, the marketing, the AI, or a little bit of everything, I am glad you are here.

Now tell me one fun or unexpected thing about you. 💛

Fusiodose works with any service. Color day. Cut day. A standalone treatment if that is what you want. The only thing you have to do is mention it when you book or when you sit down. I will handle the rest.

The biggest shift in color for summer 2026 is not a shade. It is a philosophy. Clients are asking for colors that feel like they grew that way. Soft dimension, lived-in roots, a finished result that looks effortless because it was designed to.

Getting glass hair in the salon is the easy part. Keeping it at home is the question. Acid-based conditioner to smooth, lightweight oil to seal, no towel rubbing, cold water to close the cuticle. That is the routine.

Gloss Absolu is the Kerastase product I reach for when a client wants that reflective, glass-like finish. It seals the cuticle flat. Flat cuticle means light bounces off evenly. That is the whole science behind serious shine.

Here is something the beauty world does not say often enough: good product is not gendered.
The shampoo, the styling cream, the leave-in that keeps hair healthy and easy to manage works the same no matter who is using it. A three-in-one from the bottom of the shower was never the answer.
If you have been grabbing whatever is left over, your hair and scalp will feel the difference real product makes. The trick is matching the product to your hair, your routine, and your goals, and that is exactly what your stylist is here for.
Men, your hair deserves the good stuff too. Stop by Bella Trio in Durham and we will help you build a simple lineup that actually works.

Bronde is the answer for brunettes who want warmth without going lighter. Rich base, sun-kissed dimension, a color that reads different in natural light than it does indoors. Understated and expensive-looking at the same time.
