About Me

Hello all! I am a beautician based in Mombasa city where I own and run a hair and beauty salon. I came to Mombasa to work since I was born in central part of Kenya. Central Kenya is generally an agricultural area and I spent most of my childhood years helping my parents in their small farm.

I had a strong desire to do something different and that is why I decided to move to Mombasa to live with my cousin. It is while in Mombasa that I enrolled for a course in hair care and beauty. With the support of my parents and friends, I was able to start a small salon and this is where I am still working.

My Business

My business entails doing hair work such as plaiting, hair treatment and pedicure. This is my hobby turned profession since I have always wanted to become a beautician. I normally serve the working ladies though I occasionally serve college students who can afford to pay.

This salon is located in residential estate and I get a good stream of clients all the time. The main challenge I face is when my equipment break-down since this leads to loss of business. I make about USD 200 per month with slight variation upwards or downwards depending on the season.

Loan Proposal

As mentioned above, my main challenge is failure of equipment. I currently have one hair drier which I use on almost all clients who come to me. Due to prolonged usage and age , the machine breaks down frequently. For this reason, I would like to have a new drier which will ensure smooth running of my beauty business.

A new drier will cost about USD120 and this loan will be almost enough for the purchase. This will improve my income significantly and give my clients confidence in me.
