My name is Vivian, a salon owner from Thika, Kenya, and I want to share my story to encourage businesswomen struggling with low income, poor customer turnout, and endless frustration in business.
A few years ago, I opened my beauty salon with high hopes of becoming financially stable and building a better future for my family.I invested heavily in salon equipment, furniture, beauty products, and skilled workers because I wanted the business to stand out and attract many clients.
From the outside, the salon looked beautiful and professional, and many people complimented the setup whenever they passed by.Unfortunately, despite all the effort and investment, customers rarely came.

Some days workers would sit idle from morning until evening without attending to even a few clients. Meanwhile, nearby salons with smaller spaces and fewer services remained busy every day while my business continued struggling badly.
The situation became emotionally and financially stressful because I still had rent, salaries, electricity bills, and product costs to pay every month.
