I am 35 years old and a Kenyan citizen. I am married with two children. I completed my High school very well and later joined Moi University where I trained as an Electrician where I graduated with a certificate in Electrical Engineering. I always wanted to be a business man that is when I started a small Barber shop at the rural in Western Kenya. Later I moved to Nairobi with the same business concept and Opened VISION KINYOZI.
My love of proper grooming of men and ladies has seen me stuck to the business of doing hair cuts at my Barber shop "Vision Kinyozi". I handle my clients with lots of dignity and Integrity that is why I get and grasp my clients. I do hair cuts in a professional way with soft background music making my Barber shop entertaining and soothing. After shaving I do warm water hair washing and applying neck and head massage. This has enhanced my customers’ satisfaction beyond their expectations. My business is where I spend most of my time apart from the time I spend with my family.
I own VISION KINYOZI. I chose it because of my passion and love for doing hair cuts for both ladies and men and since I like real grooming for people. I handle my clients with lots of dignity and Integrity that is why I get and get hold of my clients. I do hair cuts in a professional way with soft background music making my Barber shop entertaining and soothing. After shaving I do warm water hair washing and applying neck and head massage. This has enhanced my customers’ satisfaction beyond their expectations; However, my main hindrance is that I only have one shaving machine, which is giving me a hell lot of time to finish one client hair cut. I really need this loan to get 2 more shaving machines specifically WAHL USA MADE, Heavy Duty Pet Clipper 13 Pcs Kit. This will help me give hair cuts to my client within a short time and the customer will be happier as this type of machine helps keep hair neat between haircuts. One WAHL shaving machine goes for Kshs 4400 (USD 51) totalling to Kshs 8800 (USD 102). I am pleading to get two machines so as to hire an associate and this will for sure double the number of clients I shave per day and subsequently increase my monthly profits to approximately Kshs 45000 (USD 520) . I am really hoping and pray for this noble loan that will see my business grow. Thank you in advance for your positive response.
