About Me

I was born on ninth of September in nineteen eighty five at ichamara village in Nyeri county. I'm the fourth born of the late Geoffrey Kamau and Annah
Njoki. I started my primary education at githungungu primary school from nineteen ninety two and I deed my kenya certificate primary examination paper in two thousand and two. Then i started working as a garden labour because of lack of funds to take me to high school. After about two years my friend asked me to join him to work in his berbers shop. I worked there for two years then I raised capital to open my own berber shop. People here are very hard working and so lovely. My daughter wants to be a teacher when she grow up. I like watching movie.

My Business

I shave all kinds of people. In this town there are so many companies so there allot of people and the climate is so hot. So people like to keep their hair short. My revenue cost is three thousand Kenya shillings per year and my typical cost for house rent,electricity,water and hygiene equipments is at least seven thousand Kenya shillings per month. I use my profit for family up keep and reinvestment in growing my business.

Loan Proposal

I will buy another three shaving machines at $ 65 each and 3 modern shaving chairs at $5 each . It will increase the number of my customers it will also increase my profit by $5 per day.
