    Alona Brodska – A woman who inspires through beauty and strength of spirit

    Alona Brodska is a Ukrainian cosmetologist, owner of the Beauty Code beauty salon in
    Dnipro, winner of Mrs Spain Universe, and a wonderful mother of three children. She is a
    true modern-day heroine, combining her professional activities with motherhood, while
    remaining beautiful and inspiring women.
    Professional career
    Alona Brodska was born in the Dnipropetrovsk region into a family where medicine was
    part of her life, as her mother was a doctor. However, as is often the case, young Alona ini
    tially chose a different path. She studied to be a designer and worked in her field. Later, she
    had the opportunity to also get an education in economics.
    T
    he realization that she wanted to pursue cosmetology came to Alona after the birth of her
    f
    irst child. To this end, she went back to school for the third time. She obtained a medical
    education and began to actively develop in this field. As Alona herself notes: “For me, wor
    king as a cosmetologist is not just a job, but my calling, something that inspires me, gives
    me the strength to move forward and grow.” She constantly takes numerous courses, attends
    seminars, and studies new techniques, biohacking, and nutrition.
    After 10 years of working as a cosmetologist, Alona had a dream—to create a space where
    every woman could devote time to herself, setting aside just one day and getting all her
    treatments done at once: manicure, hairstyling, cosmetology treatments, massage, and
    more. So in 2023, when she was expecting her third child and during the full-scale war in
    Ukraine, she opened her beauty salon, Beauty Code, making her dream a reality. As Alona
    says, “This salon is like a fourth child to me, one that I really wanted and love very much.”
    A new stage: moving to Spain
    After three years of living in a war zone, when hope for a better future was fading, Alona
    and her family made a difficult and important decision to move to Spain for the safety of
    their children and themselves. It was hard for everyone to leave their hometown, because
    their family and jobs were there, and their children had friends, school, and their lives there.
    After moving, the family faced difficulties adapting. So Alona immediately found tutors for
    the family. For two months, the woman went through a period of sadness when she wanted

    nothing more than to return home. But she did not give up — she pulled herself together,
    started going to the gym, taking clients, and adapting to life again. The children went to a
    Spanish school. The nature, people, and atmosphere of Spain gave their family a new lease
    on life and hope for a better future.
    Mrs Spain Universe
    One day, the international director of the Mrs Spain Universe contest approached Alona
    and invited her to participate. At first, she was not interested. She was already a queen to
    her family and clients, so there was no need to prove it. But after she shared the news with
    her family, they said, “Why not?” Her eldest daughter even reacted with, “Wow, Mom, that’s
    great! No one else has a Mrs. mom.” This made her think that life doesn’t always bring such
    opportunities, so she decided to give it a try. And it was worth it — she won.
    Alona dedicates this status to all women and shows that 40 is just the beginning, that it’s
    important to take care of yourself and your health. And that regardless of age, anything is
    possible if you believe in yourself and have the support of your loved ones.
    Now she is going on the big stage to become Mrs. Universe. Spain became a new home for
    their family during the most difficult period of their lives, so as a sign of sincere gratitude,
    the woman will make every effort to win this victory for her.
