ABOUT Patience B. Moore
I was never a big hair and make-up buff. In high school I had my hair professionally shampooed and styled once a week because I didn't know how do it myself. Later in college, many of my friends had locs, and I began to twist their hair. Next thing I know, I'm styling and cutting hair.
After graduation, I wasn't happy in my career choice. I called my parents and they asked me, "Baby, what makes you happy?" With tears in my eyes, I responded, "Doing (sniffle sniffle) doing hair." My father said, "Then why don't you do what makes you happy?" That week, I enrolled in cosmetology school.
Make- up is another story. I knew I wanted to do make-up but I didn't know how. I read Reggie Wells make-up book and he said "the best make-up school is the cosmetic counter." So I started working at a local department store make-up counter in the most diverse part of town giving makeovers whenever and on whoever I could.
Within a year, I completed cosmetology school and joined an award-winning salon in Brentwood, TN. I I then moved on to one of the nation's most sought after salons that specializing in hair color and curly hair.
I have worked numerous award shows, NYC Fashion Week, and with various celebrities. I've been blessed to travel the world for hair. I truly love what I do. Being a hair stylist and make-up artist isn't just about the outer look. It is about showing an already beautiful person how glamorous and stunning they can be.
