## Story

Established by Jenna Bowden in Colorado Springs, Delta Crown is part of a corporate portfolio of beauty and wellness concepts intended to accelerate growth. This milestone indicates momentum as the brand continues to grow, attracting entrepreneurs who recognize its model and long-term potential.

- Allynn Shepherd: A current multi-unit operator with additional locations in Michigan; Shepherd will be opening a Delta Crown location in the Metro Detroit market, bringing experience in team development and operational management.

- Amit Shah: Will develop a Delta Crown location in the Pittsburgh market; Shah has experience as a multi-unit operator in beauty concepts. He was drawn to the concept’s service model and commitment to ethical sourcing and high-quality supply chain practices.

- Sarah & Jay Miller: Owners of a nail care location in Columbus, Ohio, with experience across hospitality operations, real estate, finance, and logistics. They will develop a Delta Crown location in the Columbus market, drawn to the brand’s alignment with modern beauty trends and operational systems.

“What drew me to Delta Crown was the clear alignment in vision and the opportunity to grow another business that complements what I’m already building,” said Shepherd. “As a multi-unit operator, I’m always looking for concepts that are both scalable and meaningful for clients, and Delta Crown offers that balance as I continue to grow in the Metro Detroit market.”

With the U.S. hair extension industry generating revenue in the hundreds of millions in recent years—and projected to grow—Delta Crown is entering the market at a pivotal moment of sustained activity. With its initial agreements signed, the brand is positioned to continue activities in the market, focusing on client experience, scalable operations, and ethical sourcing.

“Seeing this level of early interest from such experienced, multi-unit operators is incredibly exciting for Delta Crown,” said Jenna Bowden, Founder of Delta Crown Hair Extensions. “These first franchisees truly understand the importance of delivering a premium, consistent service experience, and their commitment is a strong signal of the brand’s potential as we begin to scale.”
