About Me

I grew up in a big family. I attended Our Lady of Mercy Primary School for my primary education and Ngara Girls Secondary School for my secondary education. I overcame hardship after my 'O' level when I came to Nairobi and trained as a hairdresser. I later started working at Vera Beauty and Fashion College. I run my own salon at the Vera premises.

The unique thing about my land is fertility. The culture of my community is wonderful, as we like doing business. When my children grow up, they want to join various universities and train in different professions. My hobby is reading.

My Business

I sell hair braids, cosmetics and all types of beauty products. The goods are in demand because ladies like to be smart. The services of making and washing hair are in big demand. I chose this kind of business because I never lack customers. The typical cost and revenue involved is about US$100.00. I use the profit to add more stock of the products. I also use the money to pay school fees for my children.

Loan Proposal

I want to buy beauty products & hair products for my saloon which will cost US$200.00.

I will benefit a lot because I will be able to repay the loan and feed my children.
I expect a profit of 50% as beauty products are in demand to ladies and also
gentlemen.
