To begin with, let me appreciate all my lenders that made this come a reality, i owe you a lot thanks for your support. With the first loan i bought a blow dyer(kshs.1800/)= and added some money to purchase a hair dyer for my salon(kshs4,500/=). With these additional machines, i was able to serve more clients unlike initially where i depended on only the one machine . Serving many clients has led to increased income per day. It has almost trippled. However my Barbary shop seems to be trod-ding because men don't like coming in where there are many women. The profits i accumulated has enabled me to open a retail shop that i ran co-currently. In addition i was able to pay my bills i.e water, house, electricity, security bills without much strain. To my family, my children are now going to school without me worrying so much on their school fees. I have also transferred them to a better school unlike the one they were in before. Im also able to support my widowed mother at home.
