Making Money From Hair
Making Money from Hair
There is a new fashion rage and it is not just for women, it is for men and children too! It is for any nationality. What does this have to do with making money? I'm not talking about putting up a porn site that shows pictures with you and your long hair! This service is completely legal and benefits lots of people.
So what kind of service could relate to hair without being a licensed Cosmetologist? Let me explain with a little story.
Mandy was tired of her daughter's long hair always getting tangled and dirty. She would always cry when Mandy brushed it out. One day, Mandy decided to braid her daughter's hair. She created a beautiful French braid that lasted for several days. Mandy was thrilled and so was her daughter!
When her daughter's friends came over, they would want Mandy to do the same with their hair. Before long, Mandy was doing braids for lots of people and they were offering to pay her for it. Finally, Mandy decided to offer her services to anyone and now she goes to people's houses to braid their hair for them.
How to Get Started:
If you already know how to braid hair, then this opportunity should be easy for you. If you need to gain advanced skills or just brush up on new ideas, look at the resource section at the end of this article.
Creating business cards is a good idea. So is a flyer. Both can be created on your home computer and printer using programs such as MS Works, MS Word or Publisher. Blank business cards are very inexpensive at most office supply stores. The template provided will make it easy to create and print your business cards. You could also use a printer service to do the flyer and business cards but this is more expensive. After your cards are done, give a couple to everyone you meet and to your friends and family. Encourage them to give them to others.
To find places to post your flyer, go to Laundromats, local grocery stores, the library, convenience stores, etc. Any place you find a bulletin board, post one. Make sure they are on bright colored paper to attract attention! You could also put little tabs on the bottom which include your Mobile Hair Braiding Service and your phone number.
Another great place to get clients in placing a small ad in local newspaper classified sections. Keep the ad short but catchy to avoid large advertising costs. The ad can be as simple as the name of your Mobile Hair Braiding Service and your phone number.
Soon you should lots of clients, including those people who work and don't have time to go and get their hair done. If you are creative and have good skills, you will soon have lots of clients just from word of mouth advertising done by your clients!
