About Me

I am a thorough and ambitious lady aged 24 brought up in a Christian family in Kericho Kenya.I went through Primary,Secondary and College level and holds Diploma in Fashion and Design. I had to get self employment after finding hard getting a job and i had to get out of home in search of greener pastures.Eldoret was my ideal town to turn my life around through business in order to earn me a living.I gathered small amount of capital and set out for the mission.
My culture appreciates everyone and treats each individual equally regardless of Age,Gender,Wealth among others.I currently got no children.
I love making new friends and reading novels as my hobby.

My Business

After my research,i found out that starting a salon was the ideal business idea based on the fact that that few salons existed at the time in the locality.I started the business in the year 2013 .The services that i offer include,all hair make ups,manicure and pedicure and recently introduced cosmetics.
My monthly typical costs incurred include Electricity cost Ksh.2000,Water Ksh1500,Rent Ksh. 5000,Miscellaneous costs Ksh.2000.My net profits has been averaging Ksh.15600.
From this profit,i have been using to pay my house rent(where i live),food and clothing and also reinvesting back to my business on the cosmetics side.

Loan Proposal

I am aiming at adding more braids and weaves in my salon. I have added a few different weaves thanks to zidisha for the loan they gave me. I want to continue adding different types of weaves to satisfy the demand for weaves from my customers.This loan will enable me to add 3 more different weaves to my salon.
This will increase my earnings by about 3-4%.

    I spoke with Sarah today she did inform me that she has been in Uganda for the last three weeks and she could access a way to deposit money in order to make her payment. However she promised to make her payments before the end of this week.

    The loan I took really assisted me so much.I added the amount to my savings and bought a blow dryer to serve more clients in my Salon. The blow driers that existed before were not enough since clients could queue. The loan assisted me to buy one more blow drier and it really promoted my business. Thank you so much lenders and Zidisha at large.
