You like to be self-employed, because now you are your own boss. Why don’t you want to struggle less? Leave the physical and emotional stress behind you and achieve real growth. Why don’t you want a real hair extensions business?
You only need to do a little test to see if you will struggle for ever, or be the owner of a respected real hair business.
Test 1. Are you too busy working to step back and to get help to build a real hair business?
How many times you say, if I have more time I will… improve the way I work.
That makes about as much sense as the person digging a hole who says, “If I keep digging my hole I can dig my way out.” Never realizing that the more they dig, the deeper they get and the more reliant their company gets on them the owner being there every day.
The odd thing is many business owners want their company to grow by investing more and more time in working harder and personally producing more. But this is so wrong, because the company can only grow when you work for the company. Didn’t you wanted to be independent, self-employed? Or you prefer to be a slave of your own company?
Let’s change roles, you do less and your company does more! How about that?
When will you free your agenda by force, step back from your business to see where you can make your business work for you? Be smarter, find new ways to automate tasks, plan instead of letting events take control of you. Create that real hair business you have been dreaming about.
Test 2. Are you willing to invest yourself out of slavery?
Yeah, slavery, because if you only can survive the day by day struggle by working harder you are a slave of your company.
Stop thinking on what will it cost me. I sell advertisements opportunities to entrepreneurs. The moment I talk about the exposure they will get with the promotions, I can see them start thinking, “aww money!” Indeed 9 out of 10 times their first response is ”How much will this cost me?”
But the thing is, you are not in the hair business to spend money. You are in the hair business to grab opportunities and to grow benefiting from the tasks you can outperform others with! You are the best in predicting next year’s hair styles, sell it! You know exactly what your clients need and like, sell it! You can write like the best about hair and beauty, sell it.
Or are you the kind of person that sees a great opportunity, but refuses to invest in this because it costs money? In this case, better to say yes boss, instead of welcome new client!
But I do not have the money to invest! It will amaze you how much cash generating potential you have in your business. All you need is to set out a strategy and plan your way to success.
.
Or think of all the money you lose because you did not go for that business opportunity! You deserve a medal of honor because you prefer others to enjoy the good things in life too. But what about you?
Test 3 Nice, but not today
If you visit my website more often and you like selling hair, you know the answers to the two previous questions. You know you can invest in opportunities and you know you should free up time to grow. But …. please do not tell me tomorrow will be a better day to start! Do not postpone the moment to invest in your own hair business because now it’s not the right time for it!
Why would you wait? Afraid to fail, about what other will say? Afraid you will lose your friends because the will be jealous of your success? Or afraid because you do not know what will happen if your business starts to grow.
Tell me, you prefer to let opportunities go by, to keep on struggling to survive?
If not, schedule a call with a mentor to start today and to grab all those business opportunities to grow a business and stop struggling

China is by far the main producer of Human Hair. Increased environmental protection starts to impact this industry. The Government forces some in some regions Manufactures to close their facilities. This puts a pressure on the hair available for the export and leads to increased prices.
The regulation sees to certain regions, cities and not to the whole country. The level of pollution in a region determines if a factory must close their doors. This, not the quality of the hair extensions of an individual factory,
Environmental protection and the price of hair
The environmental protection will cause an increase of the price of the hair extensions. There will be less hair on the market. And there is no improvement of the quality of the hair. The good thing is China takes the environment serious, but for hair resellers it’s an extra challenge.
The environmental protection is for a limited period. Once the level of pollution is back at the norm, production will resume. But, it is unclear how long this will take. Some owners keep continue the production and thus delay the impact for the whole region.
What can you do?
1. Try to order more hair, if you have enough stock and the hair price will rise you will benefit for the increase.
2 Look for a second supplier. It’s good to have a good relationship with one supplier, but if this supplier for any reason can’t supply the hair. You are in trouble. Better to find a backup supplier.
3. Educate and inform you clients. Clients do not like surprises. You increase the price of the hair, and your clients, even if they love the hair, will not be happy. Educate them, tell them about what’s happening in the world of hair. Use your newsletter to keep them updated and give them news they can share with others.
4. Start cross selling, you are in the business of giving people a confidence boost. Stop selling hair extensions, but sell this look good feeling.
5. Follow this website to see what’s happening in the world of hair extensions

Business tips to start a hair store
Why do you want to start your own hair business?
When you try to answer this question, do not only think of the hair you can buy and sell, or the money you will earn, or how proud your mother will be. The best business tip to start a hair store are related to yourself. You as a person. You as entrepreneur of a hair store, online or brick-and mortar should have the right skills and the right traits. Next to your character, you must take some action to position yourself as store owner.
Entrepreneur characteristics to run a hair store
When you want to start as entrepreneur your own hair store, the following traits, because these have a positive influence on being a successful entrepreneur. I added a short explanation for each trait and please when you doubt google or check a professional about the meaning and how this relates to you.
How about:
- extroversion
- You are outgoing and you direct attention to things other than yourself. It’s characterized by sociability, assertiveness, talkativeness, and excitability. You seek out social stimulation and love to engage with others
- conscientiousness
- when you have the desire to do a task well, and to take obligations to others seriously. You tend to be efficient and organized instead of easy-going and disorderly
- agreeableness
- you are a kind, sympathetic, cooperative, warm, and considerate person
- emotional stability
- you can withstand difficult situations, handle adversity, and remain productive and capable throughout
- openness
- when you tend to be intellectually curious, creative, and imaginative, you are always trying something new
- higher risk preferences
- when you are willing to risk losing money, to get potentially better results
For a hair store, where the goal is to make others look and feel good, a soft skill like agreeableness is very important. You need to be able to listen. Extraversion is also important for running a hair business because you might visit all salons in your town to offer them a referral deal, or you need to feel relaxed enough for a photoshoot or short movie, to promote your brand.
Thanks to a survey conducted by the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin we know you should pay less attention to your own abilities and aspirations, and more attention to the external realities of competition in the marketplace. Startups and entrepreneurs tend to feel overconfident. Importantly, this survey also confirmed gender plays a role, and men are riskier than women.
What to do next?
You can decide for yourself, but you can also ask a family member, your partner or best friend to give a full 360 of you. Be aware, openness and emotional stability are good characteristics for an entrepreneur, so accept the view others share with you.
Of course, the outcome does not have to be a definitive Go or No Go to continue with your dream, your own hair store, but see how you can adapt your behavior towards the more entrepreneur favorable characteristics.
What are the 6 necessary skills for one to be successful in the hair business?
Please read the 6 necessary skills to be successful in the hair business. If you have a day time job, you might be dreaming of being your own boss. But there are some skills you need to have, or you need to train yourself to be successful.
One Finish what you start
What kind of person are you? Do you have a million ideas but hardly finalize what you started? You cannot start a business initiative and leave it on the shelf before it is ready. Being your own boss, means hard work, even if there is nobody to tell you to finish your work.
Two Be able to sell
If you are your own boss you have to sell everything, every day. There is no hierarchy between you and the customers, the market or your suppliers. Instead of giving an order, you now have to find ways to convince others to not only be interested in your ideas, suggestions, products, visions. But also to make them pay for it. Thus be able to show you believe in what you offer.
Three Be a top communicator
At school they teach you to do math, to read or about the history of your country or people. But did they teach you how to communicate? Did you had lessons in listening well to other people? One of the necessary skills to be a successful entrepreneur is to communicate like no other person. The biggest difference between us, a s human beings and animals is our ability to communicate. But we are so bad in it. If we talk to another person, how many times you notice you are preparing your own answer, instead of listening to the fear, excitement or needs of the other person? It’s so difficult to tell what the other exactly told you, just because you were not listening.
You need to listen to your clients, to be able to support them with their needs and not what you want to sell.
Four Master your time?
Life is full of making decisions, and being your own boss is not different. Of course you need to think through any action you plan to execute. But if it takes you ages before you come to a decision, only because you prefer to have 100% certainty, it will not work.
Not only will you never find 100% certainty, there is always the risk it will not work out the way you planned. You will also lose too much time in planning and thinking about all the alternatives. Time, more than money is scarce if you run your own business. Treat it like gold and do not waste it.
Next to being able to take decisions you also need to be able to plan your days and weeks. Good time management will make you successful in everything you do.
Five Be the boss
You are in charge, and you are the one who will make the final decision. Are you going to expand, are you going to buy this hair or hair from another supplier. If you do not have the courage to be the boss, it will never work. As mentioned before, you need to make decisions, even if there is no certainty. Do you have this courage?
Six, Learn from your mistakes and success
You need to learn, from everything that comes on your path. Learn from everything that comes on your path. Plan time in your busy agenda to learn new things, to analyze new trends in your industry and do not forget to learn from unhappy clients! They will tell you exactly what you can improve.

One stroke of Donald’s pen and women rights are back centuries again.
Last week the US President revoked the Obama 2014 Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces order. This order was put in place to ensure companies given federal contracts complied with a raft of labour and civil rights laws.
The Obama rules helped protect female employees on wage transparency and a ban on forced arbitration clauses for sexual harassment
The first requirement (wages) forced companies with federal contracts to provide each employee with a “wage statement”. One of the few ways to help ensure women were being paid as much as their male colleagues.
Women earn 83 cents for every dollar earned by men
Did you know, women in America currently earn 83 cents for every dollar earned by men doing the same job (The Economic Policy Institute).
The other rule stopped companies with government contracts from using the forced arbitration clause to keep sex discrimination claims out of the courts and off the public record. This helps to hide sexual harassment claims.
The forced arbitration clause became the subject of public debate last year when Fox News presenter Gretchen Carlson dodged an arbitration clause in her own contract by directly suing the company’s former chief Roger Ailes over claims of sexual harassment.
Civil rights LGBT community
Campaigners also say the order discriminates against LGBT people. Several of the civil rights laws that companies will no longer have to prove they abide by prohibited discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
“This administration has made it extremely difficult to enforce these federal laws,” Camilla Taylor, a lawyer at a law firm that fights for the rights of LGBT people, told Keen News.
This all could be an extra motivation to start your own hair business, you decide on the payment structure and how to deal with the rights of your workers.
Female President
How would the world have looked like with a female US President; will we ever know?

Just before I go to church, I felt I had to write about my never-ending source of inspiration. It’s amazing how the Lord finds the time and words to inspire me, every single day of the week. To thank Him for this I love to visit the church every Sunday and to say a big Thank you.
Before in my daily life I used to run, push and hurry to get things done, and I always thought I am the one making these things happen. Only when I felt the tough gets going I could find the time to pray and to look for support from the Lord.
But that’s too easy, that’s not fair because let’s be honest, it’s not me but the Lord who makes everything possible I achieve and even if I fail. It’s not only the lord who uses a bright light to start our days. It’s also the Lord who makes it rain great ideas when you want to start selling hair extensions, or your own beauty salon, or any other great plan to make the world a better place.
I am happy I can use this small piece of the world to share my thankfulness for all the support I receive and I pray you too will find support today or later this week when you are ready to start to make your dreams come true.
Have a nice Sunday

Feb 11, 2017 | Make Your Dream Happen
The temperature is below zero and a strong wind makes it even colder. It’s getting dark already and most people leave the parking spot of the local library to go home for dinner. Only a few see a girl, leaning against the wall of the Library, but they are all in a hurry. Hunger is on their mind.
Cynthia is standing outside the library, leaning as close as possible to the wall. By doing so she benefits most from the waves of the Wi-Fi broadcasted by the library. She is searching for hair suppliers. Her ambition is to start selling her own hair brand. She wants to sell hair. She works two jobs, but still not enough to pay all the bills every month. To fulfil her dream, she uses free Wi-Fi whenever she can.
Wholesale Supplier did not speak English
Recently she found a hair supplier in Vietnam. Their website had beautiful images of hair. Plus, many reviews. But the saleswomen from the Vietnamese hair supplier did not speak English very well. On top of that, she was only asking:
“Which texture you are looking for”,
“please tell me the hair you are looking for, so I can give you the price” and “how long for the hair you want.
That sales women clearly wanted to sell hair.
A click with the hair supplier
Okay, Cynthia was looking for hair, but it was not easy to buy from a stranger who was thousands of miles away. It’s not a loaf of bread she was buying, she had calculated she would invest the complete tax refund in this shipment. It was now or never, but she also knew she could only spend the money once. She felt she needed a better contact with the hair supplier before she would transfer one dollar.
She googled hair wholesalers and found the page to sign up for free hair wholesale contact. She had the choice between one contact for free or more for USD 1.50. Cynthia felt like the little match girl, who had to sell matches to keep warm. She decided to go for free, and hoped this contact would bring her luck. She filled in the form for a free hair supplier and went home. Cynthia was the last person leaving the parking.
The next day, during the break of her job at the fast food chain, she received a WhatsApp from a wholesale supplier, named Lydia. Lydia received her contact details and now she could app with this wholesale hair supplier. The talk was not about the hair she wanted to order. First some small talk, Cynthia felt she met finally a hair supplier who wanted to understand her situation. There was a click and she decided to ask Lydia to send her more info, process and images of the hair.
She started to plan the Hair Extensions Party
That afternoon she went to the library again, luckily it was before closing time. She studies the emails she received and she started to App again. She decided to place a small order with Lydia. Some bundles of body wave, some curly and straight in 14, 16 and 18 inch. This was all her tax refund allowed her to buy, and to allow her to organise a small hair extensions party. After she placed the order she started to plan the Hair Extensions Party right away. The location, the host, the theme of the party and the invitations.
Thanks to the track and trace number of the courier, she knew exactly when the day the hair will arrive. Cynthia was very nervous that day. She even made some mistakes at her work. She rushed home and was in time to hear DHL to ring her doorbell. Cynthia accepted the parcel, closed the door and opened the parcel. The hair was completely meeting her expectations. It was great. She played with it as if it was pure silk she received.
Start to sell hair, or not?
Now she had to sell, make some money. She already had asked her friends to at least invite one other friend. There would be 19 girls on her first hair extensions party and again she was nervous. Her best friend, Nancy, had a great fashion studio. This was the perfect entourage. She has bought some drinks and she has a new memory card for her phone, ready to make pictures.
The girls talked a lot and they admired the studio. Cynthia started to sweat. Because it seemed nobody was talking about the hair. Unbelievable her first business adventure would end at the first day she was open for business. She wanted to cry, but realized she should not give up now. Not now. When she was fetching new drinks, Nancy took her aside and told her she would do the drinks if Cynthia would start talking hair. And that did the trick. The girls only needed a little push and they started to feel, try and comment in the hair.
It was amazing, because imagine 20 girls in a fashion studio talking, feeling and trying hair extensions. The mood was great, the hair was great and … the first orders were placed. The psychology worked, to see somebody buying triggers the other person to buy too. At the end of the evening, Cynthia was only left with one regret. The regret her tax refund had not allow her to buy more hair.
Do you want to sell hair too?
Cynthia now owns her own store. Interested to grow your hair business?
