Earning through cosmetology
Stronger Women, Stronger Nations Program · Gar · Gar19
From my training in cosmetology, I produce pomade and sell it at the market on market days. I also sell liquid soap to bike riders in my community to wash their bikes, and I’ve been making a profit of ₦150 to ₦200 on each product. I’ve been saving all my interest to expand my business into other products.
