Lena is the owner and creative force behind Lena Shkreli & Company, bringing nearly two decades of experience, advanced education, and a deep passion for creating beautiful, transformative hair. She specializes in long hair, blonding, hair extensions, and customized solutions for women looking to enhance, restore, or completely reimagine their hair.

​

As an Invisible Bead Extensions® Elite Artist and extensively trained extension specialist, hair extensions have become a defining part of Lena’s work. Her approach goes beyond simply adding length. She creates customized solutions for fullness, density, dimension, and seamless transformations designed around each client’s natural hair, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

That passion has expanded into The LS Hair Collection, Lena’s custom line of hair extensions, wigs, and toppers. Through custom-made wigs and toppers, Lena is able to offer options for women whose needs may extend beyond traditional hair extensions, helping bridge the gap for clients experiencing thinning, hair loss, limited density, or simply looking for an alternative way to achieve the hair they envision.

​

Lena is also a L’Oréal Professionnel Color Ambassador, bringing her expertise in color and blonding into every transformation. Her ability to combine color, extensions, wigs, and toppers allows her to take a comprehensive approach to hair and create highly personalized results for each client.

​

Her work has been featured in publications including The Knot Magazine, StyleLine Magazine, and HOUR Detroit, and her bridal work has contributed to Lena Shkreli & Company earning multiple Best of Weddings honors and a place in The Knot Hall of Fame.

​

For Lena, the goal has always been bigger than beautiful hair. It’s about finding the right solution for each woman and helping her feel confident, seen, and completely herself.
