Early Life
Sharon was born to the late. Mrs. Veronica Adeleke and Adedeji Adeleke, but Her mom passed away while she was still very young, so she grew up in the care of her Dad alongside her other siblings.
Sharon was a very determined girl right from her younger age. Despite being born into a billionaire family, she had always dreamt and prayed to make her own money legitimately and not depend on her father. She involved herself in various businesses that yielded her money and were equally doing very well, but she still maintained a low profile. She did not always show up herself as Adeleke’s first daughter. She never conducted herself like a child born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Career

According to her interview, after the birth of her child and having had a lot of bed rest, she wanted to make her hair and wig. She sources on YouTube to see if she would find any person that’s good at it.
Luckily she met this lady on youtube. She loved her videos and invited her to come to make her hair, and she did. She needed more wigs for herself while she wanted to travel, but the lady couldn’t come through as she declined and turned her down. She then took to herself to try out if she could make it herself.

She continued daily on this until she became better and perfect, although she got some hands which put her through whenever she got it wrongly.
