MEET Our Team
Zowi WOODMAN
Meet Zowi, owner and stylist here at Rize. From a young age Zowi knew she was meant to be in the beauty industry. From having her own mani/pedi business at age 10, to being everyone’s go to girl for hair and makeup, cosmetology school was always the plan. After beauty school Zowi had found a love for hair coloring, especially blondes. Hoping to incorporate her passion for bridal makeup and hair coloring, Zowi started networking. In 2018 she began booth renting at a boutique style salon in Maine and was working aside other makeup artists building her portfolio. As her clientele grew, and so did she, she knew it was time to go back to her NH roots. After a year of planning she finally opened Rize Beauty CO. She is so proud of every part of Rize and can’t wait for you to enjoy all it has to offer!
