This November, we’re excited to spotlight Stephanie Marason, a dedicated stylist and salon leader at the Holiday Hair salon in Hellertown, Pennsylvania. Stephanie has worked at Holiday Hair since 2019 and is celebrating her 21st anniversary this November, marking over two decades of styling excellence!
Stephanie’s journey to hairstyling began later in life. After deciding she wanted a career change, she dove into cosmetology and hasn’t looked back. Reflecting on her decision to make a late-career shift, Stephanie encourages anyone thinking about doing the same to “go for it” and embrace change. “Don’t be afraid of mistakes,” she said. “Everything will come to you naturally in time.”
Ironically, Stephanie’s favorite service to offer today—perms—was the service she least enjoyed during cosmetology school! Over time, though, she grew to love the service, mainly because it allows her to spend more time with clients, something she truly values. She’s especially enjoyed the rising trend of boys and men embracing perms, bringing a fresh, stylish look to her chair.
One of the most memorable moments in Stephanie’s career was when she shaved the head of a client battling cancer. The client later returned cancer-free, which left Stephanie feeling excited and hopeful. However, the cancer eventually returned, a sobering reminder for Stephanie to cherish every moment and not take anything for granted.
Stephanie said her salon is a positive, supportive environment. The team makes each day amazing with a staff of talented professionals who bring joy to the job. “The environment is always upbeat, and we work together seamlessly,” she said.
She also extends her gratitude to Kathy, her Territory Leader, for the nomination, recognizing the hard work that goes into leading a successful salon. Stephanie is proud to be part of Alline Salon Group, saying the company has helped her grow in ways she never imagined.
