Meet Rsession: A line of innovative, professional hair tools from celebrity and editorial stylists Kevin Ryan and Frank Rizzieri.
The brand, launched in January 2014, was created by the two stylists because they wanted to craft styles that there weren't tools available for. Two such tools are the Nalu Waver and Tidal Waver

The 3/4-inch, dual-barreled Nalu Waver is used for volume and different curl shapes and waves via weaving hair through the barrels. The 100 percent ceramic heating system reaches up to 450°F with instant heat recovery. Includes a heat-resistant glove and 9-foot tangle-free swivel cord.
The Tidal Waver creates deep waves and intensifies volume by adding big waves and smaller curls simultaneously.
Rsession also has a strong focus on environmentally friendly manufacturing, so you can feel good about investing in the range of tools.
The brand features friendly prices so that retail becomes a strong part of the stylist's business and income. Tools should be accessible for the stylist and the client so the retail process is very turnkey.
