Hey how do start own hair business

This week, Shantina reached out to me. Shantina asked me by mail, “Hey, how do start own hair business?” Nothing more, only this phrase. It was this sentence that kept me thinking for some time.

The main goal to start How to Sell Hair Extensions was to help women with the dream to start selling hair. You adore hair and you see some of your friends start selling hair. And they are even making some nice cash. The second you are going home, you start to imagine. “I can do the same, I can sell hair too and I know I can do better!” You have a clear mission; you want talk hair all day, sell hair to your friends and friends of friends and make money.
You want to sell hair better than your friends, but is that adequate to start a hair store? Because how do you start your own hair business? Who can tell you? Your friends who are selling are not going to tell you where they got the hair. The lady of the salon or hair store is not going to share how to beat the competition or how to establish a successful hair business. You are on your own if you want to start a hair store!

How do start own hair business?

The good news is, you managed to find this website. I want you to know, you are no longer alone. Not anymore, right from the minute you found my site and you made contact. By email, WhatsApp or social media, or you left a question like Shantina did. As of now you are not alone anymore. Your question is for me like the start gun for athletes. I see your question and I jump up. I want to know what is driving this woman to start selling hair, what is her dream, how will the store look like? And how can I support her?

Share your questions about selling hair

For me every question is important. Because I know, behind this question is somebody with a dream, with thoughts to improve her or his financial situation. Success will improve her standards of living, she will be able to go to the university, take care of her family or just to buy those shoes and bags she liked so much!

I will answer your questions, because by doing so, I can do my part in making this world a better place. And that is what all women selling hair want to accomplish too, I know. Making this a better world, full of the best-looking women. Thanks to the hair products they offer.

The start of your own hair business is … at the finish

While I reply the mail from Shantina I am working on a larger project. I am working on an easy to use plan to guide everybody who wants to start to become a hair entrepreneur. Step, by step. If you contacted me recently by WhatsApp, you will notice this already. To begin with the start of your hair business, you need to focus on the end, the finish so to say. Do not ask how to start, but make it clear for yourself what do you want to achieve?

If you put all your energy, time and perhaps even money in finding out how to start your own hair store, I fear you will lose interest over time. Your dream will never come true and you will end up buying the hair from your best friend, for eternity. And always listening to her success stories. Too many, girls and women started with a dream to be financially independent, but they stranded because they did not know where to go.
They wanted,

to sell to the girls at college and wholesale too.
to sell to all afro American women between 18 and 45 in their country and abroad.
the name of a good hair supplier to sell this hair to anybody they know.

These are great ideas, but they are not business opportunities.

The best way to start, is to think of a successful hair store, your store!

It is systematically proven that your brains do not understand the difference between reality and imagination. Sounds odd, but it is the explanation of why you like to read a short novel or watch “Orange is the new black”. It is the base of success for athletes who prepare for a new record. Imagine every step of the race, repeatedly and sure you will be the winner, or a good number two!

The same goes for your own hair store. Imagine how your store will look like, how will your happy customers look? Imagine the hair and even the aroma of your fast selling hair. Visualize every single part of a successful hair store, your store!

Visualize Your Success

Some people use Pinterest to collect the images of their dream store. But you can also collect in paper the images, quotes from entrepreneurs who inspire you and pictures of happy women with gorgeous hair. It does not matter how you do it.

Create a special spot for your vision board. This is the board with the pictures and quotes and other stuff that fits perfectly in your hair store. Make the vision board complete and make sure you will maintain it. Your thoughts about the ideal hair business may change overtime. It will get better day by day!

Now you know how to start your own hair business

Look at your vision board every single day and imagine how you will be standing behind the counter, talking hair with the most beautiful women of your town, or better the world! They come all the way to buy from you! What is needed to make this vision board into reality? You. You only need yourself to put this into action. All you need to do know is to start to take over control of your brains and to implement your vision of this awesome hair business into reality. You will have the perfect store and have answered all by yourself the question: how do start own hair business?

Every day I speak or chat with girls and women (and some men) who are full of passion to start selling hair. You can feel their ambition when they chat, to create a new hair brand that will make so many people in their community and further away to look and feel good. They all inspire me with their stories, their ideas and their commitment. After every chat, I feel the energy floating through my body! I look forward to make that person to succeed selling hair!

But every day, I also see people who give up. Because all their money is invested in hair extensions nobody wants to buy, or because nobody visits their website. This is the part of the business I do not like. Believe me, it makes me feel miserable every time I hear about somebody who stopped chasing her dream.

Because I believe every person deserves the best support to make her or his dream come true, I started how to sell hair extensions in 2012. I want to give you the best support at the lowest price possible, to support people, like you, who want to make the world a more beautiful place, while becoming financially independent in the meantime.

I started with a blog, followed by an eBook and one to one coaching for business planning, SEO, content marketing and support to create hair webstores. Today I have eBooks covering many areas of the business of selling hair, I introduce people to wholesalers, design websites ( this I told you already ;-)) and I love to promote ambitious hair stores.

How much is it to start selling hair?

Dec 6, 2017 | Sell Online

This morning when I opened the mailbox I was surprised with the two mails from Derrica. Derrica told me she is a stylist and she want to start selling hair to her clients. A clear win-win situation, because the clients will no longer have to bring their own hair with them. And Derrica is able to broaden her product offering and to make more sales.

She was wondering how much she needs to start this kind of additional business.

You can start with little money, Derrica already has her clients thanks to the stylist business. This will give her the first flow of returning and loyal clients. She will have to talk with them about what kind of hair they buy, how the service is, the pricing and other conditions. By talking about the hair needs of her stylist clients Derrica, will learn more about:
the competition,
their hair and
the service they provide.

All this will help her to start searching for the right hair. Up till now for no more than an extra cup of tea.

Now knowing the kind of hair, she is looking for, she can start with an intelligent search for the hair by contacting hair suppliers. Most of them prefer to chat by WhatsApp and I can provide some names, so again this step is for free. Now only to test the samples of hair she will invest the first money. Some suppliers will be able to offer free samples if the buyer show how serious she is. But to budget a couple of hundreds of dollars would be smart.

With the samples or small orders, she can test the hair and if she was convinced about the supplier and the hair she can even install some hair. This will be a test too, but could also start to generate some pre-sales attention if clients see the hair she is wearing. The business is getting started now!

Im very interested in selling hair i am also a stylist and im trying to find a great way for me and my clients as well for when they want sew ins and things .
So i was wondering how much is it to start something like this ?

Derrica

Hair Stylist

If your styling clients like the hair, it’s easier to decide to put invest some more money in building a small stock. You can do miracles with between 1 and 3 thousand of dollars. To buy a smart stock with these sizes and textures your clients will most likely buy.

Now the sales to your existing style clients starts to take off, it’s time to consider broadening your horizon. Start to promote your hair on Instagram and Facebook. You can find a lot of free ways to market and sell your hair on social media in our all-in-one hair business package.

Now the investment in the hair stock will rise, but your sales figure will grow too. Use the cash flow to invest in a website of usd 300 to usd 500 and your sales will give you an interesting extra income, month over month. Check for a free trial the professional websites Shopify offers. I can help you with the design and launch.
