Due to meager pay I earned as a teacher , that could not take care of my needs ,I resigned as a teacher and trained as a a beautician and hair dresser. At first it was tough ,but I managed to complete the training and used my savings to open up the saloon. The saloon business is doing well and I am able to take care of my bills comfortable.
I come from western Kenya , I come from the luyha community and the most unique and interesting culture is the culture we where the youths are thought of the community values.
