Every Wednesday, we spotlight women who are doing great things and advancing in their careers. Our Woman Crush Wednesday, Omowumi Sukurat Waheed, who is the CEO of Shom Organics ticks all the boxes and is on this feature.
Omowumi’s brand, Shom Organics, which specializes in hair, beard and skincare for men and women, was established in August 2017. It started when she trained other women on how to produce organic products and coached them on how to apply the knowledge for their own betterment. She then went on to launch her first hair care product (Hair Growth Serum) in 2018, using her Instagram platform to sell to hundreds of people, which she does till now. Omowumi has subsequently expanded the brand with its Beard Growth Serum, Hair Shampoo and Hair Conditioner.
Being multitalented, Omowumi developed an interest in fashion in 2015, and learnt the art of sewing. She began applying her knowledge and skills while at university, designing and sewing clothes for many students. She’s also a writer who has written several articles about pregnancy, motherhood and parenting to help women in their motherhood journey.
She is currently employed at Kraks Media and has created over 250 pieces of entertaining and humorous content in form of articles, listicles, and quizzes. Additionally, she constantly uses her social media platforms with over 16k followers to promote brands, entertain and educate her followers with mind-blowing content.
Having just completed her first degree in microbiology at the University of Ilorin, Omowunmi has had to juggle being an entrepreneur with schooling, yet still performed exceptionally at both. According to this astute entrepreneur and outstanding creative, her goal is to take her brands to the next level. Based on all that Omowunmi is doing and has going for her, she is worthy of celebration and emulation. This is more reason why she is our Woman Crush Wednesday.
