Born on August 24, 1986 in Cotonou, Ms. Christine GOHOUNGO is a hairdresser by profession and the mother of two children, of whom the eldest is in her second year at the Cours Préparatoire. Her husband, an electronics technician, takes care of her children very well. Ms. Christine GOHOUNGO’s beauty salon is located in the Midombo district and on the edge of an open gutter, not far from the Midombo pharmacy.

GOHOUNGO Christine a triplé son revenu après son prêt. Quand elle était petite, elle a commencé à vendre de l’essence avec sa maman. Apres, elle a fait un apprentissage de coiffure. Actuellement, elle est coiffeuse et elle a sa propre boutique pour vendre les mèches et les produits de coiffure. Elle s’approvisionne à Tokpa et au Nigeria. Elle a une plus grande sélection des mèches qu’avant. Dans le futur elle voudrait quitter son lieu pour louer un espace plus vaste parce qu’elle a besoin d’acquérir plus de matériel pour son atelier.
