Alley Dunlop is the Salon Owner and Brow Specialist at In The Raw Beauty in Golden Point, Ballarat. Alley grew up on the outskirts of Ballarat in Smythes Creek and completed her secondary education at Loreto College. Finishing school Alley knew she had a love of art, painting and drawing. She commenced a Graphic Design course but soon realised that, while she enjoyed design, her true passion lay more in the creative space. With some encouragement from her friends Alley attended an open day in Melbourne at Elly Lukas and discovered that her true creative flair could be explored in makeup and beauty. After finishing her studies Alley worked briefly at Elysium day spa before honing her skills in brow design at Jasmine Beauty Therapy at Myer. After three years at Jasmine, Alley took the leap and went out on her own to develop In the Raw Beauty. Despite lockdowns and covid interrupting her first years, Alley’s business has grown from strength-to-strength and even grown to include her friend and business partner, Shannen.
