It’s been a while but Hey, Beautiful is back! Today Gia chats with hairstylist, makeup artist and all-around beauty connoisseur Koni Bennett, who splits her time between working with big names in New York City to her clients in Scranton, where she also owns one of the only salons in the area that caters to multiethnic hair: Vanity, A Boutique Salon. They chat about Koni’s grind to break into the industry, working with big names in beauty and making those in her hometown look as good as they feel. Koni also details her favorite products while on the go, the power of karma and why it’s important to follow your passion.
