Today we’d like to introduce you to Anniete Omoragbon.
Hi Anniete, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I am Anniete, a twenty-two-year-old hairstylist from Nigeria. Doing hair has always been a hobby for me, I started braiding at a very young age. I used to practice on myself and dolls until I became comfortable with doing other people’s hair. I went to an all-girls boarding school and I would often help my peers do their hair. This is where I found people to practice on; I was known for being able to grip really short hair. After high school, I moved to the United States and I decided to work on my craft and learn new techniques. I watched so many YouTube videos and practiced more and my work improved gracefully. I didn’t take doing hair seriously until a year ago when I quit my part-time job to focus on just braiding and school, and it’s been good so far, I’m grateful.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It hasn’t been an easy journey, I struggled with balancing my part-time job, school and braiding hair on the side. It became too stressful for me, I had to quit my job and focus on braiding and school. It took so much commitment and hard work, but I’m so grateful for where I am today.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a self-taught hairstylist, I specialize in braids, I’m known for my Knotless braids and Knotless faux locs, I’m proud of how far I’ve come in just a little period of time. I provide the best service possible, I give my clients exactly what they ask for and more.
