Elizabeth Di Maio 

Elizabeth launched Healium Hair in 2007 with her husband. Learning things the hard way, the wrong way and the expensive way also taught her that successful people fail… a lot. All of this paled in comparison to losing her husband in 2017 and becoming a widow at the age of 39 with two small children. That hasn’t stopped her! Healium Hair is currently in over 5,000 hair salons and growing. She also launched the Heal I Am Program, to give back 5% of every sale to one of 3 charities. She is an extraordinary woman. 

You can support Elizabeth’s business by following @HealiumHair on Instagram.
