About Me
I was born in Dormaa Ahenkro. I attended Dormaa Presbyterian Primary School and continued to junior high school in Dormass Junior High School. I was able to raise a loan to purchase the tools I would need for my job and I also started selling cosmetics in my shop. Where I live, Tuesday of every week is set aside for market. Many people from all walks of life come from the neighboring towns and villages to buy and sell.
My Business
I dress hair and sell artificial hair and other hair creams. Dormaa Ahenkro is a municipality whose citizens are enlightened, so many of the youth are engaged in appearing decent thereby making different hair styles. People from the neighbouring towns and villages come to the general market to buy things for their villages and towns. This is where creams and artificial hairs and other things they will need are bought. Most people buy in larger quantities to retail in their places of abode. I chose this business because of that.
Loan Proposal
In my shop, I dress hair, weave hair, style hair and sell hair creams and body creams I on hair styles and most of it include hair styles etc.with this loan amount if I am granted will buy weave on $41, hair creams $39, one extra hair dryer $31. I will buy seven bottles if shampoo at approximately $21.This will be used solely for washing my customer's hair . I will buy two basins that will contain the water for washing hair at $10.
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.
