About The Project

Mary started this business in January 2022. She is an experienced salon stylist who has studied beauty and cosmetics. Her plans are to bring new initiatives into the field of beauty and cosmetics in general, which include salon services such as haircuts, pedicures, manicures, and dreadlocks, among other things. Mary is very enthusiastic about her business and if she receives the donation from CII, she plans to do the following: Buy a blow dryer, purchase a dreadlock machine, pay off bills, support her family members, and do online fashion. She also narrated that she is set to expand her personnel because the kind of business she does requires other expertise in the same field. The yearly plan with her business is to ensure that by the end of November 2022, she will be able to have the above-mentioned equipment so that her work and operations will be very effective and easier. She is very passionate about her work. Although she is very young, she is a visionary. She has also stated that she wants to venture into fashion and design because this business complements the salon. She has a lot of hopes for business and new skills that she wants to share with her community.

Backstory

Mary started her business in January 2022. She started this business after her job as an interior fashion designer and salon stylist came to an end. Thus, she needed to continue to support her family. From her small savings, together with her husband's support, she started this business.  Mary is a specialist in beauty and cosmetics. She is a married woman with two kids. She is very passionate about her job. She likes beauty and making other women look beautiful by offering services like hairdressing, dreadlocking, pedicures, body massages, and haircuts. She has not yet achieved much business success yet because the inflation rate has been very terrible and the high tax rate has also been big a challenge. However, she gets at least some money from her business for feeding her children and running the affairs of her family respectively. No customers because of election tension are also a problem. Her husband has helped her up to this point. So far she faces the challenges of lack of advanced machines for hair salons such as blow dryers, dreadlock machines, massage machines, and a proper business rental house.
