I got my first weave when I was 14 years old, it was love at first sight, and I have been rocking one ever since. I honestly think I have had every style imaginable.
My love for all things hair started when I was 8 years old. My mom bought me a toy salon and I would spend hours styling all of my doll’s hair. I had no idea that this toy salon would one day be J. Ashley Styles and that my toy dolls would now be all of the amazing women I have had the privilege to style since 2009.
My commitment to providing the ultimate hair weaving/extension customer experience, is what motivated me to expand my knowledge beyond the beauty industry. After getting my cosmetology license, I earned my Bachelor Degree in Human Services from the University of Memphis and my Master Degree in Education from Bethel University. I did this while working as a part-time hair stylist for Regis Hair Salon. So when you sit in my chair and want to talk about some hypothetical issues about your “friend’s man”- I got you!
In addition to expanding my education, I have also spent the past 11 years working closely with the owner of Hair Candy Salon, Your Extension Suite, who happens to be my Auntie so this hair thing is also in my blood. Working closely with my auntie and attending advanced training in several hair extension techniques such as braided and braidless (micro-linking) weaving; custom wigs, and various nonsurgical hair restoration techniques for women dealing with alopecia has been priceless. I also, stay current on all of the trends and colors to keep you looking your best.
As a native Memphian, I also believe in community and giving back which is why I also work with students with disabilities helping them As a wife and mother of a beauty baby boy (Yuri), I know how easy it is to focus on the people we love and neglect ourselves. Which why I created my Queen Sisters Organization. Queen Sugar helps women embark on the road of transformational change, by helping them engage in social change, educating themselves economically and encourages them through life explorations, while elevating to their higher self.
