Default Re: Do you want to open a salon?

FIT,

I hate to say it but it sounds like you are out of electric and should really have more AC to run your place properly.

I am glad that you were able to open the salon for so little but I think you should have done a bit more homework only for the fact that if you need to expand, you are gonna have to spend WAAAAY more now than if you did it from the beginning. And I do hope you have enough for 6 mos of bills (both salon and personal) in the bank because this business can easily kill you in the slow season if you dont.

I am not trying to doom and gloom you but we are very honest here and want the best for the industry. I do try and talk people out of opening that just dont have a clue. Think that this is easy and all you have to do is open and they will come. They say that their area is different, I dont know them , etc. They will prove me wrong. Sad thing is, no one has yet. Seen them all come and go. That is why I try and save the ones that dont know any better from wasting their money.

Good luck with your new venture tho. I hope you have much success!
