Good morning zidisha,this is my story;I am Sella,my story begins in 2019 where i lost my job as a waitress,due to covid 19,i decided to return to my mothers house back in Nyeri county,due to that humble background i got depression,i had to think a way out of it.
I turned to my friend Ismael who loaned me ksh2000,I went to Dubois and bought earrings,i hawked them in nyeri, worked as mama fua and gathered up resources and bought wig extensions,customers requested if i could get a stable place for them to access me easily,fortunately i got a well wisher who sold mtumba shoes,accommodated me in her small space for me to grow my business,business was doing well,
2021,came and an opportunity for employment came through for a job placement,I I left my stock to the well wisher as a goodwill.I took the chance to go to Nairobi but things went south,I had to undergo fresh training,2022,got pregnant and delivered a preterm baby,on 2024 i decided to revive my business through my online platforms,ive been getting positive feedbacks and this is what keeps me going.
Candid Extensions on tik,tok begun this year,Spark_glam on other socials begun on 2019, the journey started after covid hit,the business paid very well back in 2019,and the shop is currently very successful under the well wisher who gave me space,it is my hope that i will pick it up not only through social media but a physical shop to,I have set plans to get back to the market stronger and bring the business back to a boom.
Candid Extensions currently on tik tok has gained 80 followers in less than a month and I've gotten positive feedback from the followers,I believe in consistency.
