We had the good fortune of connecting with Wileen Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Wileen, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I bet on myself every day, risk taking for me is stepping out on faith and believing that you and your brand will be successful. Risk taking to me essentially means that you have faith that you know deep down that you’re going to succeed in what you do! All it takes is one leap of faith and you believing whole heartedly that you’ll succeed in it.

What should our readers know about your business?
WJ Hair Extensions and Hair by WJ is a company that caters to those who want to look fabulous on a day to day wearing their custom wigs while also maintaining the healthiness of their real hair, those who don’t have the time to style their hair everyday which is where WJ steps in. We also have exhibited for the largest beauty shows. What sets me apart from others is that I provide and experience with my clients and customers, I’m an entire vibe not only do I make my clients/ customers look beautiful I make them feel beautiful as well. I’m excited for what’s to come for my business! I had to sacrifice a lot to get here, like I had to map out what I want to accomplish within a certain time frame and I had to be disciplined about it. It was absolutely not easy! Through that journey I questioned myself, when things went wrong I second guess myself! I wanted to quit but I stuck to my goals and kept on going. My lesson that I learned is to basically stick to what you aspire to be or do and enjoy the journey along the way be patient and know that not all things happen overnight but in time they do. I want the world to know that WJ Hair Extensions is a brand that really take the time to cater to their customers and clients and we take pride in making sure that our clients are pleased with our products.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Oh!!! So if you’re my best friend we’re all about having done good food and drinks and vibing out. So Sunday we will definitely hit up a live brunch spot where the food is amazing, drinks are top tier and music sets the vibe so I’m going with “Nouveau Bar and Grill in college park” Monday- we’ll head over to the Aquarium, Coca-Cola museum and do a few site seeing. Tuesday- Hit up the Atlanta botanical garden then hit up “The Trap museum “, Wednesday we would find some soul food restaurant spots “Frost bistros “never disappoints me!! Thursday we would go to a national park Or mountain. Friday definitely hit up “Suite food lounge “ Atlanta Then on Saturday we would do something chill like go to a winery definitely “ Chateau Elan” I love that place.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Yes. My husband, family and close friends they have been my support and continues to push me to this day especially my husband for his continuous support for me he’s my biggest cheerleader. Therefore; my husband family and friends is who I would love to recognize.
