For the past year that i have been in Mozambique i have seen the desperation so to speak to look good. Firstly they have limited hair extensions.
Phoebe

An ambitious entrepreneur from Mozambique

Too often it seems there are no hair markets in Africa, outside Nigeria, South Africa and Kenya. But do not forget the emerging markets. What are the opportunities for selling hair extensions in Mozambique?

Today I received an email from Phoebe from Nampula, in Mozambique. She is looking how to start selling hair extensions in Mozambique. I am preparing a market survey for this hair market. Plus an overview of the possibilities on how to start selling hair in Mozambique.

My first step is to perform some search on the internet. To check on Google what is currently available about hair extensions in Mozambique. It shows most suppliers have a presence on Alibaba or Aliexpress. This is not helping, it seems there is no presence of a hair company like Darling Hair from Kenya. Darling Kenya, offer an assortment of braids, weaves, extensions and wigs in Kenya.

Hair extensions opportunities in Mozambique

It’s is clear this country is a niche market. Google trends offer much less information about hair extensions in Mozambique, than in South Africa or Kenya. There is interest in Hair styles and how-to information about hair. But artificial hair integrations do show up in very limited searches.

It seems Phoebe has touched a very interesting market. The hair extensions market in Mozambique. I will use social media to get better understanding of the business opportunities in the hair and beauty market in Mozambique.

Yan Naing Oo

CEO, Efficient Hair Company Ltd Myanmar

This week I had the privilege to interview Yan Naing Oo, the CEO of Efficient Hair Business in Myanmar. Yan is a very friendly man, with great interest for the happiness of his clients and workers.
Myanmar

Yan start to talk about the history of the company

“Efficient Hair started a small business in 1998. The company was changed from retail trade industry to Wholesale Trading a few years later. The business is going successfully because we are not doing only profit concentrated business. We are only focussed on making high grade quality products for foreign customers”.

To change a company into a wholesale it is essential to have access to good quality hair in sufficient quantity, how takes Efficient Hair of this?

Yan tells: “We get the hair from young girls, healthy girls and donor hair. Firstly, we clean human hair with comb. After that use, good quality shampoo and conditioning products. Our hair has hardly no lice case we pick up it very carefully before we send it. The cleaned hair bundles go for triple wefting, then quality checking and packing. These are the processes we do for the hair.”

There is always a person or situation in Life that inspires people to achieve their goals. What is your inspiration?

Yan: “First of all, as I told you my father. But also, the availability of temple hair and the huge world -wide demand for Burmese hair is the inspiration to me.”

Efficient Hair is a family business ...

… according to Yan and he loves to talk about the people that work with him. “Plus 10 to 15 people work with me in wefting business. And 70 to 100 people work in Non-Remy hair business. They work in the factory depending on the number of international orders. My family is also working with me in hair business. We have only a production unit, Sir, which can able to supply monthly 0.5-ton Weft hair with super quality. “

Can clients from locations like: New York, Dallas, Bloemfontein or Nairobi order their hair from Efficient Hair Business?

“Yes, Sir!” Yan continues: “They can order via our profiles like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and WhatsApp or the Website. For big orders clients can directly visit our office. If we feel that clients need to visit the manufacturing unit we provide that chance to them.”
Myanmar

What makes hair from Burma, Myanmar, different from hair from India or China?

“Our most popular hairs are Straight, Wavy, Body Wave, Loose Curly and Curly hair. Our hair differs from countries like China and India because our hair is soft, smooth and 100% Natural human hair. It is our quality promise, Sir!”

But for resellers it is always very difficult to find reliable suppliers, how do you help buyers to feel confident when they buy hair from you?

Yan raised his voice and tells” We are direct processers of this Burmese hair and clients do not have to worry too much to order from us. Because we are providing 100% quality assurance on Remy Virgin Burmese Hair. Our goal is to help you find the best possible products and make sure you are our next happy customer.
Within 4-5 shipping days. If any kinds of problems occur like shedding, tangling, dryness or any kinds of quality mistakes, they, our clients, can always resend it back to us and we exchange the goods immediately or we will “and again he raised his voice ” re-fund the amount without asking a single question!”.

My last question to Yan is if he has a golden tip for hair resellers to become successful?

Yan “I have a golden advice for people who want to start selling hair. I would like to advice. Customer is first. And the hair texture based on client’s request. You will do the best serve for your customers. You will make the best quality and you will supply the best quality for your customers.”.

Thanks Yan for the time, your patience and the great hair sourced in Myanmar you supply!

Your own hair store, forget it!

Your own hair store, forget it!

Every day I speak with many girls and women about starting their dream. Your own hair store. Our first contact often is a simple short email. Expressing the intention to start selling hair and the question for support on how to start. The name of the site is well chosen, because most of these ambitious women want to know How To Sell Hair Extensions.

I prefer to continue the chat on WhatsApp, but with some women we chat using email. There is not much difference, but WhatsApp work much more better.

The energy, passion and ideas these girls have is amazing and the main source for my own inspiration. But too often after some weeks, a hurdle pops up.

This month in Kenya we had the elections. The tensions that caused these elections made some people decide to invest the money elsewhere. Or to keep your job. Anything, except to work on your own hair store.
There was also some sad news, two people diagnosed with cancer had to focus all their energy to fight this awful disease. I promised them to pray for them, and I hope the idea of their own hair store in the future will help them to keep on fighting. It’s my dream to keep contact with all for many years to come. So, the day they will be ready to start their own hair store I will be there for them.

There were also girls who got pregnant, or who started a new job. Good and great reasons to put their dreams for their own hair business on hold for some time.

But sometimes there are too many hurdles before somebody can start a hair business. Your plans can change due to circumstances you did not foresee when you started to make your dream to come true.

My advice is whatever happens please not to forget your dream to start your own hair store. Keep on thinking about this dream. Rethink on how to make your business better, design the business in your head. Give the creative part of your mind all the time to make your own hair store perfect. And when the day comes you have the time and resources, you and I will make it happen. I will support you with business and marketing advice and the best hair in my new shop anytime when you are ready for it.

Have a nice Sunday!

How to plan to get more visitors to a hair website

How to plan to get more visitors to a hair website

You have a website, selling hair extensions and you want to know how to get more visitors. More visitors mean more people that like and will buy your hair extensions. This post will tell you how to get more visitors.
I use a term Marketing expert use but you can forget very fast. Instead of the term, it’s more important you have a strategy in place that works for your goal. To get more visitors to your site.

Okay, the experts talk about Search Engine Optimization, or SEO. SEO is the process of improving your website or blog so it attracts more visitors from search engines, like Google, Bing and Yahoo!

In simple words, you need a plan to get complete strangers, that are looking for content relevant to hair extensions and beauty from search engines and turn them into new visitors on your website or blog. To make this happen. All you need to do is to understand how somebody is looking for information.
To start, think about how you look for information on the internet. Big chance you open your computer and type in the search bar:

“How to plan to get more visitors to a hair website” or “How to grow the visitors to my hair website”.

The idea of the plan, is to make sure your website, or a special page of your website will show up in the results. If possible ranking number One or Two in Google, because these are the places people click on.

It is good to know; your website does get more visitors than you know. Because the search engines use spiders, to all webpages they know to study the content. If the spider understands where your webpage is about, they will place that in their index. This index, a kind of a library, holds all the relevant content on the internet. This index helps to get more visitors to your website. If you enter a search term in your search bar, they only must check this index. Thus not to go search on all pages on the internet. This gives you very quick a good and relevant search result. This also make it very important to give the spiders info about what you want to tell on your webpage or blog.

Follow the tips to create your plan to get more visitors to your hair website.

Tip One, use the same search terms as your potential clients

Life can be very simple, if you only talk the same language as the people you want to listen to your offer. If you want to sell hair extensions, do not talk to formal, but talk like you would do in your salon. Use the key terms your clients and leads (people interested in the products you offer) will use.

There are several ways to find the keywords your ideal client is using. First, pay attention to this during a conversation about hair with a friend, a client or anybody in the salon.

– What are the returning words they use, but also
– what are the struggles they face and
– what kind of solutions they are looking for?

Use all your skills to get more visitors to your website. Listen, respond plus remember the keywords your partner is using.

Use this information to create an ideal client. The persona that needs the solutions you offer. This ideal client represents the searchers on the internet who will become your website visitors. Leads and hair buying clients. You need to know:
– who they are,
– what their goals and intent are and
– what problems they face buying hair and beauty products.

Tip Two Not everybody is ready to buy hair today

You can get more visitors to your website if you understand at what stage of the buyer’s journey your visitor is. Are they aware they want to do a makeover but they are not sure what and how? In the Awareness stage, there is no need to offer your Full Lace Wigs, but share your creative look on hair and beauty. Prepare a post about “How to look more gorgeous than your best friend! If your ideal client likes what you publish, she will return for your site later.

She will look again at your product offering if she has decided she will go for a different hair style to look awesome. Marketing Experts call this the consideration stage. For this you can add a post about the different kind of solutions you have.
Finally, when she compares the possible hair pieces, she has reached the Decision stage. Now is is time to tell her about the details like shipping, payment and pricing.
Publish on your webpages content that helps your ideal client in every stage of this buyer’s journey. From Awareness to Consideration and Decision.

Need help to find the key terms your Ideal clients, and to get more visitors to your website? Feel free to leave a comment under this post and I will help you.

Tip Three Use variations on the keywords

Your ideal client will use a complete phrase to search the internet, in most cases like asking a friend for advice. So, try to use all kind of variations for a question. People do not look for “Brazilian”, but for “What are the best Brazilian hair extensions”, of “Where can I buy Brazilian hair”. You can get some help from Google if you type a search term like this, google will share with you some alternatives on the page with search results. A great way to get more visitors to your hair extensions business website.

Tip Four Use the search terms on your page to get more visitors

Now you have selected a search term, you need to be sure both the spider, and the visitors will find what they are looking for. Make sure your search term is in the page title. This title will both show on the browser tab for the webpage and as the link to the page in search results on google or Yahoo. Include your [hair extensions store name] as well. A great way to get the attention to your store name is to use a vertical bar to separate the two. First your search term, followed by the company name.
The URL of the page, www.howtosellhairextensions.com should include your search term.
Next do include the selected search term in the headers and content. Make sure to use the search term in a natural way on the page. No need to spam your page with the text “Brazilian hair”.
Finally, do not forget to add images and to tell the spiders what’s on the images. Thus, use the search term in the image alt-text. Extra benefit, in the search results of images your page will show up too.

Oh, nearly forgot. Every webpage has a meta description section, do not forget to add your search term in this section too.

Tip Five Relations, relations, relations

Even if you do not have a dating site, your site needs relations. Link with websites that have authority and try to earn links from other websites. Google sees the link of your website to other sites. It will understand it is important to rank you higher because more people are interested in the content. Thus, to get more visitors, you need more links. And it’s not all about links to your website. If you help others to find great content, google will reward you for putting a link to another webpage too.

Good luck with getting more visitors to your website. Leave a comment if you want an overview of search terms for hair extensions stores!

How to avoid the 20% customs duty importing hair into South Africa?

How to avoid the 20% customs duty importing hair into South Africa?

Home ( Page 21 )

When you import human hair into South Africa, the first person that will benefit is the tax man. Wigs, wefts and other human hair imported into South Africa will cost you a 20% custom duty. This is for the hair imported from China and other countries. Luckily there is a way to avoid this 20 % tax and to make more profit yourself.

Import Hair- Pay Tax

If you import hair into South Africa you have to declare this import to Customs. And to inform them about what you imported and by what mean of transportation. This can be by Air, Sea, Road, Rail or Post.

What to tell Customs?

All over the world customs work with the Harmonized System (the Brussels Notes). This Harmonized System includes all goods traded between countries. For you two categories apply:

67.03 Human hair, dressed, thinned, bleached or otherwise worked; wool or other animal hair or other textile materials, prepared for use in making wigs or the like, and

67.04 Wigs, false beards, eyebrows and eyelashes, switches and the like, of human or animal hair or of textile materials; articles of human hair not elsewhere specified or included.

For more details see the site of South African Revenue Service (SARS).

Difference in code is important

This is important when you import human hair into South Africa. You do not have to pay customs duty when included in category 67.03. But you have to pay 20% customs duty if the hair falls under category 67.04. The first category is for “products prepared for use” in making wigs or the like. The latter (67.04) covers “complete” articles.

Darling Hair court case

In a court case a South African company stated the hair they imported, wefts, was subject to 67.03. Because of the fact at the time of import the hair wefts were not ready for consumption yet. A complex and time consuming set of treatments was needed for the end user before she could wear the hair.

The High Court of South Africa agreed with the point of view of the importing company. Thus reduced the import duties to zero. But the Supreme Court decided different. Because the hair wefts are themselves complete and can be used without being changed or processed in any way. This qualified import of human hair wefts into South Africa as category 67.04 with 20% import duties.

Pay Less Tax

Reviews

1. Understand your clients, off course you know your clients, but do you also understand them? A client may pretend to be happy, but feels the hair was not as good as the first time she bought. But if she likes you, she will not tell you right away. But, if she can share her thoughts in a review there is a big change she will tell you, in confidence, why she is disappointed. Use this opportunity to further improve your service.
2. Reviews are very common, if you do not share reviews, potential clients might wonder why not. Better to join the team and share reviews.
3. If you start publishing reviews, make sure to watch the number of not so good reviews and the good ones. Be honest and share also less, but sincere reviews but there is no use at all to share more bad than good reviews. Make sure the balance is in favor of the good reviews.
4. Confidence. Okay, there is no auditor who will check your reviews, but if you only have 5-star reviews and none less positive or even negative, you might create some disbelieve. People are never ever 100% happy at the same time, store or hair. Publish also the less favorable reviews
5. Reward your clients for sharing a review and take time to listen. You will be amazed how much you will learn from this. After every review, your store will only get better.

Thanks to all this you will attract new hair extensions clients!

I agree it sounds odd, but the best way to sell more hair extensions is when you are not selling hair. I do not mean you should stop selling, but you should put the interest and needs of your ideal client first.

Relationships sell more

You already know word of mouth is one of the most successful marketing tools your brand can have to sell more hair extensions. Most people listen better to their friends or relatives for advice than to a sales person. And why not? Your friend has an interest to keep the relation good, while the salesperson only wants to get your money!

The keyword is ‘relationship’. You can not sell your hair only to your friends. You need to build a relationship with more people all your potential clients. Your ideal clients. This means above all, you need to be there for their needs in the first place. You have to listen to their needs, understand their doubts, remember their birthday or other special event!

You will sell more hair extensions.

Your Ideal Client: Joan wants to buy from you

Understand the needs of your ideal client

No need, to discuss the hair extensions or your other services every time you see your ideal client. Even your blog postings should not only talk hair, but also mention the other things in life. Understand who your ideal client is and what they deal with during the day. Publish a post about these things too. Do not start to blog about everything that happens. Your focus should be on the hair. Also publish every now and then about working mums or how to install an app.

Sell more hair extensions

A strong relationship between you and your ideal client will also work when the competition approaches them. Your ideal clients will be less interested to buy hair from others. A lower price for the hair, will not make them change brand anymore. They will prefer to keep on buying from you, because you are not selling hair! You are their friend and you will sell more hair extensions!
