About Me

I am single with both parents, two brothers and two sisters. I live in Subukia a place know for its tomato growing in Kenya. I am a Therapist by profession, a form four graduate and I attained a Diploma in Hair Dressing and Beauty Therapy at Subukia Polytechnic in the year 2010. I started a business so as to provide for myself and to assist my parents in educating my younger brother and sister by paying school fees for them. From my earnings am able to purchase cosmetics and display them at my Hair Dressing and Beauty Salon ready for sale.

My Business

It is a self employment business since I am the owner. The goods that i provide are cosmetics like; hair gel, body lotions and some other make ups for both men and women, I offer services like braiding, blow dry, curling and many others. There is demand for these goods and services because I always make sure that good customer relationship is maintained and customers are well attended to and as a result they prefer my business despite of the existing competition. The availability of ready market makes it profitable . The business may face a risk in case of inflation and this can lead to low demand. From my monthly sales I manage to get a profit of ksh 17000 or more and thus making it possible to cater for the cost of about ksh 6000 including house rent.

Loan Proposal

Thank you very much Zidisha for this opportunity that you have given me am going to add more stock at my salon, that means am going to buy more cosmetics to make my hairdressing and beauty therapy services more convenient to my customers, I will make sure that customers do not lack anything especially hair gels and body lotions, apart from that good customer relationship has always made my business successful and as a result this make more profits due to availability of ready market for my goods and services. Thank you very much for your help and sincere support..

Hi Loise, please update us on how things are going and why no repayments are being made. It is sad to loose this money since it will decrease other borrowers chance to get funding for their projec.

Wish you all the best, Kristrun

I do not understand why my loan application is failing and this is my third time. I maintain the rules but my current credit limit has been dropped to the previous one, do I really deserve that?

Hi, am happy to inform you that am doing grate with my business, i bought more cosmetics and some machines to use at my salon like hair driers and others. The cosmetics are moving at a high rate since customers attending the salon buy their preferred cosmetics just right here at my salon and thus the business goes hand in hand with each other. Thank you very much to all my leaders and zidisha team as a whole.

Hallo, am happy to have this chance because I would like to inform you how the business is doing. First is to thank for the previous loan because from that I have seen a grate performance especially on the cosmetics because it is where I invested it, however this does not mean that the saloon service is not doing fine but it's also doing grate because customers prefer my saloon because they are being attended with the best make ups. I have also bought another mobile phone that can access zidisha internet service and with that I will be able to update you at any time and that means i don't need to use a computer that was hanging and as result causing repeated comments. Thank you.

Hi Loise,
Congratulations on completing your first Zidisha loan.
I have left positive feedback for you in support of another loan.

I would ask you in the future to not make many repeated comment posts. I understand that you get credit for a larger loan, but it's cheating the credit system. It also makes it difficult to follow your comments. Thanks.
Congratulations, and best of luck in your business. Marvin
