After graduating with a degree in international business, Kehinde was unemployed for over a year and struggling to make ends meet.

In just over a year, My Extensionz evolved into a successful business with a thriving e-commerce site and two retail locations in Chicago. Kehinde’s goal is to expand the My Extensionz brand to all major US cities.
