WomensNet Mini grant awarded to Hair By Ashley

Hair By Ashley

Woman Entrepreneur:
Ashley Moon

Ashley knew at a very you age that she wanted to make a positive impact on the lives of others. This brought her to the world of and helping people feel like their best selves.

“To my clients I am a confidence booster and source of encouragement, confidante, friend, counselor, a shoulder to cry on, Mama-Ashley, and “straight-up hair genius” (that’s what they call me). I am a safe place to bring the up’s and downs of life to. We celebrate together, and lament together. My clients are people that become part of my life and I pray I leave each one better than they arrived – both in the mirror and in their hearts.”

Restocking the product shelves is one of the ideas that Ashley has in mind for her mini-grant award.
