Team Thursday: Ashley

August 4, 2016

Ashley has been a licensed cosmetologist and a part of The Glam Fam for two years now.  She is from Ashland, VA and does both hair and makeup services for The Glam Squad.  She started doing hair and makeup after working the restaurant industry as a server, bartender, and manager for 10 years.  Customers and other employees would come up to her and compliment her different braids and hairstyles.  This got her thinking that she should look into being a stylist as a career.  Once she was ready to settle down and start a family, she decided to go to cosmetology school at Empire Beauty and hasn’t looked back since.  Ashley’s favorite style to do is side swept curls, textured updo’s, and braids.

When Ashley isn’t working with the Glam Squad she is a full time wife and mom.  She loves to hang out in her backyard with her family, cook, and also loves to garden in her small vegetable garden.  A fun fact about Ashley is that she is a good singer!
