My name is Rael tarus,in 2019, me and my husband we launched a barbershop partnership in Total, Narok county, facing initial challenges in a price-sensitive area. We offered adult shaves at 40 Kenyan Shillings and 20 Kenyan Shillings for kids to attract customers. Building trust was hard at first, and we faced payment disputes due to quality issues.
However, our perseverance paid off as loyal customers emerged, attracting more business. We raised prices to 70 Kenyan Shillings for adults. Then, in March 2020, COVID-19 hit, severely affecting businesses with curfews and reduced hours.
Despite these obstacles, we endured, and now, as the economy recovers post-COVID, we're grateful for our journey. We've learned that endurance and perseverance are key to success, as no situation is permanent.
We run a barber shop and saloon business were We offer adult shaves at 70 Kenyan Shillings and 40 Kenyan Shillings for kids, hair dressing beauty and selling of cosmetics.
The business is well performing now it's 5 years and we have managed to catch repetive customers as well as new customers.

I will use the granted money to stock my shop with ladies clothing's due to demand.
I will buy a bale of jeans, skirts, t shirts and dress.
This will enable me to sell as I generate income.
