Obama's Hair Design was incorporated with the state in November 2008 — the same month Obama won the presidency — by the proprietor of what was then Ossama's hair salon on South Dearborn Street in the Loop. The salon saw a spike in business after the name change and garnered national media attention, including from conservative talk-show host Sean Hannity and NPR. But Strobeck Real Estate sued the business in 2010 over unpaid rent of more than $7,300, and that year the corporation was dissolved.
