Young entrepreneur builds hair brand beyond Namibia

ONGWEDIVA – From a home-based salon in Ongwediva, young entrepreneur Jennifer Omuwa-Etuhole Gabriel is proving that passion, consistency and faith can transform a small business into a recognised brand with clients from across Namibia and beyond.

Gabriel is the founder of Hands by Etuhole, a hairdressing business that has earned a reputation for quality workmanship and creative hairstyles.

She told Youth Corner that she started two years ago as a small venture serving clients mainly from Ongwediva and Oshakati has grown to attract customers from Windhoek, Swakopmund, Katima Mulilo and Rosh Pinah. “My work has also attracted clients from South Africa, Zambia and Malaysia,” she said.

Gabriel further emphasised that her passion for creativity and helping people feel confident inspired her to pursue hairdressing as a career.
