My Haire: How Abisola Oshinubi is changing the hair extension market

Abisola Halimat Oshinubi, a licensed physiotherapist in both Nigeria and the UK, has made a remarkable shift from her medical profession to entrepreneurship, driven by a mission to transform the beauty and hair care industry for African women.

Her story begins two years ago when she relocated to Dubai and found herself facing a frustrating challenge—sourcing high-quality hair extensions.

With limited local options, Abisola relied on suppliers from China and India. However, her experience was marked by disappointment.

The products she received often did not match the descriptions or images provided by suppliers, and she frequently encountered high shipping costs and prolonged delivery times.

This motivated Abisola to take matters into her own hands.

Determined to provide a better alternative, Abisola launched My Haire, a company dedicated to sourcing and delivering premium-quality hair extensions directly to consumers.

Her venture is tailored to meet the specific needs of African women, starting in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and Nigeria.

Driven by her entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to quality, Abisola has expanded My Haire’s footprint across four continents, making a significant impact on the beauty and hair care market.

The company’s success is rooted in its promise to provide reliable, high-quality hair care products, eliminating the stress and uncertainty associated with international sourcing.

Abisola Halimat Oshinubi’s journey from physiotherapy to entrepreneurship demonstrates her resilience, innovation, and dedication to ensuring that African women worldwide have access to the finest hair extensions without the common challenges of sourcing from abroad.

Through My Haire, she is not just selling hair extensions; she is creating a seamless, trusted experience for her customers and redefining beauty standards globally.
