SEARCHJennifer Malone is one of those social-media personas you can just tell is someone you'd want to be your friend.

How social media changed your life: Social media has grown my business in ways I never thought possible. The world of beauty is always changing and it has allowed me to stay up to date on stylists offering classes, tutorials, etc. It is also slowly bringing me out of my quiet shell. It's great to be able to have a platform to display what we are most passionate about, and the feedback I receive is definitely a fuel to my creative side! I think it keeps us on our toes and always doing our very best to stay relevant.
The first time I was featured on MODERN SALON was….: Last summer. And I wanted to DIE! I grew up reading MODERN SALON in my step-mom’s hair salon, so the love you guys show me I am BEYOND grateful for!
