About Me

Am married with three kids,humble and business oriented,am hard working and looks forward to being at the top in the field of business,i started my business 8 years ago, am out going and easy to deal with,i started business after i realized i could not afford to go to college and since then i have never looked back. being in business has helped me to be empowered knowing that i can also support my husband in our every day budget, i enjoy every bit of my business and is always looking forward to a new day in my work place, i tackle challenges one day at a time learning from my mistakes and is always ready to be a student. i never went to a hair dressing or beauty college but i learned just from assisting a one lady who owned a beauty shop, am proud to say that my interest and hard work made me one of the best too.

My Business

My business mainly deals with beauty and beauty products,its situated in Nyalenda off Ring road,ii started back around July 2007, weekends and holidays are the peak seasons.
Ladies and beauty are inseparable hence makes this business be in demand. I had the passion for beauty and its products and the need for these services around my area made me choose this kind of business.
My typical cost is Kshs. 6,800.00 annually for Trade Licence, Kshs. 2,500 for rental, water is roughly Kshs. 480.00 monthly, electricity is about Kshs. 1,200.00 monthly.
I use my profit to pay for my children's school fees and home improvements.
i do hair dressing and manicures and pedicures,i also got two assistants working with me, it has grown since then and am always happy to see more and more customers streaming in each day.my business has mainly flourished because of our major foundation of neatness and a good attitude to our esteemed clients,we keep them always leaving with a smile and looking forward to coming back, it earns upto 5,000 a day on good days and at least 1,000 on bad days, it is challenged by lack of some new equipment that will be bought once you start financing me.

Loan Proposal

I will use the money to add hair wigs, weaves and additions. I will go for the products from the manufacturer by myself to enable me choose a variety of products thus enabling me to earn a bit higher and shall also save on time and I won't be running up and about in search of the products. Customers also won't have difficulty in finding their choice of products.

    Hey team zidizha.hope you are ok. Am ok too though financially down completely..well on the payment history am unable to see the payments I made late last year and part of these year. Kindly make me understand why..av also not been able to adjust the repayment schedule coz am unable to make at least one payment in full. I keep making partial payments due to my financial condition..that's what am able to pay currently. Kindly include my latest payments even if they are partial. My balance should be reducing though remains constant coz of the unrecorded payments. Thanks
