In this episode, I had the honor to sit down with Allison Cohen, one of the co owners of STYLE LOUNGE and a true champion of women. Ally along with her partner sage run a gorgeous and super successful salon in the heart of San Diego! Listen in as she gets reallll vulnerable and honest about what it takes to run a large successful salon in San Diego.. (in the middle of a pandemic no less) How she got her start in the beauty industry and what she had to do to become the leader she is now at the age of 26! hint hint it includes a shit ton of personal development and continued work on herself! Absolutely loved this episode and know you will find so much inspiration, guidance and motivation to push you in your career and life!! “It’s so much easier to talk shit, than to get up and do it”... one of my fav quotes of the episode where we talked about taking personal responsibility for ourselves... listen in you won’t want to miss this one!!

Ally's Bio: My name is Allison Cohen and I am a co-owner of Style Lounge with my partner Sage Nguyen. I grew up in Murrieta and moved to San Diego to cheer at SDSU. I got a small college job at Halo Couture Extensions, where I was introduced to the beauty industry. This job changed my life forever, and the rest is history. I started out as a hair stylist in a small studio with 2 chairs, and now we staff over 25 people. The second that this job is not fun for me , I don’t want it anymore. Even when things get tough, or I have a bad day I still am obsessed with the process and the lifestyle that I have chosen. Continuing my education and staying inspired has been essential for my career. I specialize in color and extensions, transformations that are life changing for my clients. Making people happy, and boosting their confidence is addicting.
