A Bit About Me

Hello there! I'm Aly, and I'm genuinely excited about the prospect of being your wedding hairstylist. I'm all about creating unique, beautiful styles that will make you feel absolutely stunning on your big day. And when I'm not working my magic with hair, I love spending time with my family – my hubby and my two wonderful daughters, Lilly and Daisy.

 

My journey in the world of hairstyling began right after high school when I started an apprenticeship with some incredibly talented Senior Directors at Penzone Salon and Spa. Fast forward six incredible years, and I proudly held the title of "Designer." Along the way, I had the privilege of winning over 5 awards within the company and even got to work on runway hair for Columbus Fashion Week, which was such a fantastic experience. I also dedicated myself to learning by attending numerous classes, diving deep into specialized color techniques, cutting methods, and, importantly, creating beautiful updos. One of my fondest experiences was volunteering for the yearly event, "Mommy and Me," where I had the pleasure of meeting some lovely mommy-and-daughter duos.

 

Looking ahead, I see myself continuing to empower and support women while being there for my growing family. I'm truly excited about the opportunity to work with incredible brides like you, whether you're an old friend or a new one. Feel free to reach out to me anytime with any questions or concerns you may have. Your wedding day is a momentous occasion, and I'm thrilled about the prospect of being a part of making it as beautiful and memorable as can be.

 

Warm regards,

Aly 💕
