My name is Adwoa Serwaa, a self-employed person in the Berekum community. I am in a family of three and I am the second born among my siblings. I started in a humble beginning, because my mum and dad were living in harmony until the time that my father, whose name is Mr. Osei, decided to have another wife [in addition] to my mother. This lady set our family apart because all my father's attention was drawn to that lady. Because of that, I completed school prematurely and I did not even complete basic education.
I stayed with my mother till I reached eighteen years of age. I saw that I was growing old, so I followed a friend who is a hairdresser and learnt this job. I stayed with her for about three years before I left. Thank God that I am now operating my own business with the help of this friend of mine.
Serwaa Hairdressing deals in perming of hair, plating of hair and other things. I have some apprentice that I am training because a friend trained me and I am now doing some work for a living. Now my mum is depending on me and some of my siblings too. My aim is to help my neighbors and other [people] to learn my job. Within a week, I earn about 100 dollars. I use some of this to purchase some perming cream and some tools useful in the job. I use some to feed my family and give some to my workers each day as they work.
When the loan offered to me I will buy a hair drier machine which will cost $179 and I will purchase maxima hair relaxer cream which will cost $71 and I will also purchase buy plastic chairs to furnish the beauty saloon and it will cost $56. These items will help the business move to a next level. If this is done in the business I will get an income $15 daily.
I will use some of the generated income to repay off the loan and use some pay my worker.
