In this Jan. 27, 2014 photo, massage therapy student Marriam Donovan, of South Boston, speaks after attending a training program in Medford, Mass. on how to spot signs of domestic violence. Donovan grew up watching her stepfather beat her mother, so she’s familiar with domestic violence. Now she’s being asked to look for similar abuse among her future clients. Donovan and hundreds of other women have received training under a program aimed at reaching victims of domestic violence through their hairstylists, skin care specialists, makeup artists and other salon professionals.
