I went to mtomondoni primary school in 1987 up to 1995 the poverty situation in my family made me not to pas sue my studies. after my primary level i wet to Mwandoni collage and did my dressmaking course. that was in 1996 to 1997, two years. after that i stayed at home for over one year. i got my soul mate and got married. I later did hair dressing at a local salon. After six months of training i was employed at the same salon. I worked for two years and after gaining enough experience, i stared my own salon.

I must confess that its a good business because i aern monthly income of ksh 45,000 per month. with this money i take care of family and also need to expand my business.
My business is a salon. I own a big salon in the heart of mtwapa.The services i provide are like facial manicure, pedicure, styling.setting.and also sell cosmetics,perfumes,and and all beauty products. we also sell clothes,gents and ladies wear and also children's wear. its a wonderful business and gives me all my needs. I get my products from dealers in Mombasa town.Am a single mother of children a boy and a girl both in school. I want the best to my children in terms of education and for this reason i took my children to a private school. my business has risks like the ever changing prices,this effects the business because at such times we loose customers. In a good month i get an income of ksh 45,000 which i use ksh 10,000 to pay for my children's school fees ksh 2,500 is used to pay my house rent, i use ksh 4,000 paying my salon's rent ksh 5,000 goes to food and also pay ksh 12,000 to my assistant who does a good job helping me out at the salon. I save ks 10,500 per month. with this amount i can pay my loan effectively.I wish to expand my business and that's why am applying for this loan.
thank you for approving my loan. with this loan i will use it so wisely by adding a second drier into my saloon so that i can accommodate more clients at the same time into my saloon. i will also use some of this loan to buy ore stock of saloon products so that they i can have them accessible to and to my clients and by doing this it will increase my daily income into my saloon business.
