Generally under-considered for school dropouts to start any entrepreneurship, Sentitemjen through his sheer determination, sincerity and hard work has started his own saloon after working outside the state and abroad for more than 10 years.

A class VIII dropout, Sentitemjen left for Goa at the age of 24 to work in any private sector and then found his calling in the saloon sector. With more than 10 years of experience in the hair and spa sector working most part of the time in Goa and for sometime in Russia, Sentitemjen on Saturday opened his saloon named ‘Carrie Gents Saloon’ at Diphu Road towards Firing Range, Dimapur. He named the saloon after his pet-name ‘Carrie.’ Dedicatory prayer for the saloon was pronounced by Asenla, Associate Pastor Women, Aoyimkum Baptist Church.

Brought up in other’s home owing to family issues, the 34-year old Sentitemjen struggled during his working years with no place to sleep at times. However, he survived all odds and now with rich experience, he came back to the state to continue his entrepreneurship and serve the people. Sentitemjen is also in search of a partner to carry on with his business.
