Hello everyone! Welcome to the itsEmily Show. I am here today with an amazing woman who’s absolutely changing the business world.  Alli Webb is the Co-Founder of Drybar, Squeeze, and Becket + Quill. She’s a bestselling author and President of Canopy. After spending 15 years as a professional hair stylist, Alli left the hair industry in 2005 to start a family, but after being a stay-at-home mom for 5 years, she decided to find a way to continue pursuing the creative side of hairstyling. She began offering affordable in-home blowout services to her mommy friends, which quickly expanded into a mobile operation by 2009.
