On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Dr. Noreen Galaria, MD FAAD Dermatologist, to the Friends in Beauty guest chair. Dr. Galaria is the Founder of Inner Glow and has trained and taught at many Universities and is currently responsible for guiding a new generation of dermatology students at Georgetown and George Washington University through her teaching.

Dr. Galaria’s experience has allowed her to develop a holistic view of the skin; her research has been featured in numerous medical publications on aging and the effects of sun exposure and she has participated in fellowships on cosmetics/laser & dermatopathology.

Dr. Galaria synthesizes this knowledge in creating Inner Glow as a science-driven solution for skin and hair health. I think Dr. Galaria might have unlocked everything we need for anti-aging and skin + hair health. Tune in to find out.

On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Shalita Grant to the Friends in Beauty guest chair! Shalita, a Tony-nominated actress, made headlines when she courageously left a popular TV show due to her struggle with traction alopecia and hair damage, which affected her in front of millions of viewers. Determined to find a solution, she developed a groundbreaking plant-based hair treatment that addressed her own complex type 4 hair issues.

This led her to establish Four Naturals Hair in her dining room in Toluca Lake, California in 2019, which has now expanded into a nationwide salon and home care treatment system. With its plant-based active ingredients, the Four Naturals Treatment has become a transformative solution for textured hair, allowing Shalita's characters to look their best. Through her brand, she has

empowered her clients, lovingly called Curlfriends, to experience newfound freedom and confidence with their type 4 hair, whether on vacation or in their daily lives.

Shalita's commitment to healing and uplifting Black women has also extended to developing a patent-pending textured hair detangling technique that brings pain-free and stress-free experiences to both mothers and their children. Despite her own hair struggles, Shalita chose to rise above and make a positive impact in the industry, while finding joy in her personal life with her partner, former MMA World Champion Jessica Aguilar, and their three dogs in Puebla, Mexico.

On this episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Allison Doss to the Friends in Beauty guest chair! Allison started her hair career just 5 years ago, at the age of 42, proving it is never too late and you’re never too old to pivot and try something new and be great at it!

Because of her grit, determination and passion, she was chosen to be a Global Educator for her favorite lightening product Blonde Solutions. She has also been nominated and received Blonding awards internationally.

It’s incredibly hard to believe that from the age of 17 until 41 years old, she suffered from alcoholism and drug addiction that resulted in homelessness and a complete loss of integrity, self worth and direction. And although she has been a shining star on her new path of sobriety and professionalism, it didn’t mean that the world would bow down to her expectations. After her husband revealed his acceptance of his gender identity struggle, the long road of heartbreak, acceptance and surrender for Allison began.

She writes about the chaos and healing in her soon-to-be published book THE UNBOSSING. Allison is embarking upon a new journey as a Global Transformational Speaker to share with others how rock bottom can be the solid foundation where you build a new life! Be on the lookout for her raw and vulnerable podcast “Girl With the Butterfly Tattoo.”
