Neijae Graham-Henries

At age seven, Neijae Graham-Henries found her passion when her brother chose to discontinue the Junior Barber Academy in North Philadelphia last year.

She took his spot in the class, becoming the only girl in the six-week course. Today she is the world’s youngest barber.

The 8-year-old spends her time going to school and giving free haircuts to those in need and at the same time mastering her skills from Philadelphia barbers.
