I am Ieticia Thompson, a self-employed person in the Berekum community. I am in a family of four and I am the second born among my siblings. I started in a humble beginning, because my parents were living in harmony until the time that my father, whose name is Tabiri Godred, decided to have another wife [divorced] my mother. The step-mother multreated us I mean me and my siblings I completed school prematurely and I did not even complete secondary education.
I stayed with my mother till I reached eighteen years of age. At eighteen I decided to learn hair making, . I It took me some few years to learn it. With the help of God I am a proud owner of a small hair making SALOON and BEAUTY center. I apprentices under me.
LETTY BEAUTY SALOON 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 90 USD weekly. 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.
I will buy cosmetics such as hair food, maxima hair relaxer and the rest which amoun to $170 and $30 will be used in buying rollers and pins which will assist the business grow very fast. I am expecting an increase of 25% profit daily from the business and some of this kind will be used to pay back the loan and some to pay my workers and also do some little savings. I hope my loan will be funded in time. Thank you in advance.
