In March 2020, House was working at a salon in Hyde Park. She would start her day at 7 a.m. and would often stay until after midnight. In April, Marimarshe 2.0 Salon and Suits, where she worked, closed due to the COVID-19 lockdown. By May, while other hair salons and barber shops were still shut down, House began creating a plan to open her new wig shop by the end of the year.
