The Artistry Hair Company

 Sunny Smallwood

Owner of The Artistry Hair Company

The Artistry Hair Company is an experience salon! Since 2014, this Paul Mitchell-focus Salon has had guests from all over the world come to seek out a new look!

Owner Sunny and her talented team of hairstylists, hand-picked and trained in-house, have a combined 50+ years of industry experience that goes toward helping people enjoy the spoils of self-care indulgence. 

“It is really important to us that you find whatever it is you are looking for in the time you spend here! Beautiful style results of course, but if you are seeking a good conversation, a cocktail, some laughs, or even quiet time..... we are the spot”. 

Sunny believes a reservation at The Artistry should be a relaxing time to pamper yourself, wind down in ‘The Wash House’ which boasts low lighting and spa sounds for the ultimate me-time retreat.

To Sunny and her team, every guest is a part of something so much greater than a haircut.

One Hot Cookie

Bergen Giordani and Morgen Giordani Chretien

One Hot Cookie

For Bergen and Morgen Giordani Chretien, success is how the cookie crumbles. The mother-daughter entrepreneurial team opened One Hot Cookie in downtown Youngstown in 2013, delivering fresh, delicious cookies and brownies to area sweet tooths. Today, they’ve not only expanded their business to a location in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but they also provide franchising opportunities to self-starters like themselves. Their not-so-secret recipe for success is to share their talent with others, to make everyone’s lives a little sweeter. One Hot Cookie serves traditional cookies, from chocolate chip to oatmeal raisin to gluten-free and vegan options, but also offers specialty cookies and brownies topped with frosting and other added goodness. Just as sprinkles and bacon add something special to these gourmet creations, a business like One Hot Cookie, as a partner to the community, adds a little something extra to the neighborhood. When it comes to both dessert and entrepreneurship, more is more.

All American Cards & Comics

Greg Bartholomew

Founder of All American Cards & Comics

To Greg Bartholomew, founder and owner of All American Cards & Comics, it’s pretty cool to be a nerd. In fact, being a comic book nerd didn’t end when he was a kid---he carried his passion into his adult life and turned it into a career. Since 1993, he’s owned and operated his own comic bookstore, bringing superhero entertainment and more to the masses in the Mahoning Valley region. Today, All American Cards & Comics is the most successful comic bookstore in the area and the number one source for collectibles and pop culture fun, with two locations in Youngstown and Warren, Ohio. Seeing how much demand there was for all things comic-book-related, Bartholomew founded the Youngstown Comic Con ten years ago, with celebrity guests, cosplay, and other fun activities. Each year, more than 4,000 fans pack into the Covelli Centre for this highly anticipated event that usually sells out.
