About Me

I was born in Dormaa Ahenkro I attended Dormaa Presbyterian primary school and continued Junior high school in Dormass Junior high school. After Junior High I proceeded to Saint James Senior High in Suyani, the regional capital of the Brong-Ahafo region. Sincerely speaking I was not good academically but my interest was in artesanship. My secondary education ended in only the second year.I told my dad I wanted to learn hair dressing and that he went and paid for me to start learning. After I graduated, my dad raised some moneyto purchase the tools I will need for my job and also started selling hair creams and human hair in my shop. Tuesday of every week is set aside for market. Many people from all walks of life come from the neighbouring towns and villages to buy and sell. This when I make a lot of profit became I see more customers who have come for newly hair styles to show when they return to their various villages. They also buy in bulk some of the cosmetics that I sell and artificial finger nails especially the hair dressers amongst them. My town is an interesting place to live since there is peace and that allows every individual to go on his/ her normal activities. The only problem here is that most of the youth are engaged in smoking Indian hemp and also alcoholism is prevalent in most of the communities, but above all these,there is peace.

My Business

I dress hair, sell artificial hair and other hair creams. Dormaa Ahenkro is a municipality whose citizens are enlightened. Many of the youths are decent in appearance I make different hair styles for my customers and sell human hair and hair creams in addition. People from the neighbouring towns and villages will come to the general market to buy things to their villages
and that is when I receive most of my customers. They buy creams and human hair and other things they will need. Apart from dressing hair, my customers buy in larger quantities,
hair creams and human hair to retail in their respective places of abode. Interest is what I considered before going into this kind of business and I considered it to be the only business that would require less capital to start with. Interestingly,I have engaged three apprentices who also pay to me to learn the job. Easter and some funeral ceremonies gives me the opportunity to enjoy some profits. This is when majority dress their hairs to meet the occasion.

Loan Proposal

I wish to buy artificial hair at $20, hair creams at $40, shampoos at $30 and combs at $20. This when bought will enable my customers feel at home if they visit my shop. They can get access to whatever they will need for their hairs. I will also obtain some profits to keep me moving. I hope these items when bought could increase my profits to about 90%.
