Meet Jasper Moore: Triple Threat: Journalist, Lover of Beauty, & Ambitious Woman

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

Hi Jasper, how did you come up with the idea for your business?
When I began my career I had no idea the path I was going to take to get to where I am now. At a young age, I had a strong desire for the beauty industry. From hair to makeup to skincare. I had a dream of working in the Spa and making people feel good. After graduating high school my dream changed and I attend cosmetology school at Empire, Morrow, graduated 3 months early and started working in the hair salon. Unfortunately, when I came into the real environment of the hair industry I lost my passion for it. In the beginning stages of starting adulthood, I was looking for a way to still do what I love without losing my ambition for beauty. I was introduced to the fashion industry from a networking event in Atlanta, Georgia, and began traveling working backstage at shows and events. As a behind-the-scenes makeup artist, I met so many creative people from models, designers, painters, singers, beauty influencers and the list goes on. After a trip to New York, I envisioned starting a magazine company. I wanted to give people who aren’t often highlighted a platform to express their stories and expose their brands. In addition to the magazine company, I started my custom wig line the very same year (2018). Although the salon environment isn’t for me I still enjoy hair and I still travel and provide makeup services.

What should our readers know about your business?
What sets me apart from other businesses is I like to work and see everyone on my team grow. If they are struggling with something I make an investment towards teaching them how to better themselves within their skills. I’m a strong believer that an empire can not survive if there is a weak link. I’m extremely proud of how far I’ve held on to my passion. I thought for a minute that I would be stuck in my career after I left the salon. I’m confident and excited about the future for me and my brands. My journey thus far has been a challenge but I also go back to why I started in the first place before I just give up. I’ve learned a lot about patience over the years. I want to be remembered as an ambitious woman.

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?
New York City of course! I would take them EVERYWHERE in New York. lol. We’d first have to visit Time Square for all the entertainment and eat at the famous Dallas BBQ. Then take a trip to Manhattan for a shopping spree. And it’s a must we take a boat tour under the Brooklyn Bridge. Can’t forget visiting Staten Island. I haven’t even seen ALL of New York but I would definitely take them there to visit and explore just for fun.Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to give a shoutout to the APN (Atlanta Photography Network) for introducing me to the fashion industry when I first started.
