We had the good fortune of connecting with JaMeshea Harris and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi JaMeshea, we’d love to hear more about your end-goal, professionally.
That’s a great question! Ultimately, my goal is to have wig factories and for the “Bougie Babes Collection” to be a household name! I want to be able to create opportunities for others, even if it’s learning my craft and finding easy hairstyle solutions; I want to do it all! I find joy in making people feel confident and beautiful! By the end of my career, I want to look back and say that I successfully created generational wealth and opportunities for others!

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I’m not sure what sets me apart from others because I don’t focus on anything besides what I have going on. My ethic is what makes me, me. I strongly feel that staying consistent and acknowledging my growth is how I made it to where I am today! No, it wasn’t easy.
I overcame the challenges by staying consistent because motivation isn’t always enough to push through.
Along the way, I’ve learned never to compromise my worth!
I want the world to know that this is just the beginning!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I’m not into being a tour guide, I’m.more of a workaholic. A great place to check out is On Demand Essentials in Montgomery, AL. They have the trendiest clothing for women!
A tasty restaurant to try is called “Krave the kitchen,” located in Montgomery!
If you’re looking for a fun night out, check out “Rack Em Up” in Montgomery, too!

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I’d love to shout out to my mom for ALWAYS being my biggest fan, sponsor, and Guinea pig! I can’t forget about my dad; he’s my most prominent critic, but he almost always helps me believe that I can take things much further than I already have!
I have so many supportive people around me; it’s surreal. My boyfriend is beyond supportive, and he’s my biggest motivator. Then there’s my aunt; if I ever needed her to walk around the mall handing out flyers, she’d do it without a doubt! Last but surely not least, my son, Messiah! He‘s the one that keeps me going, and the motivation is different when you have a child that depends on you!
