Should you start your own hair extension business?

“Starting your own business also gives you the opportunity to express your creativity and passion for hair. You can create custom looks for your clients, experimenting with different colors and textures to create the perfect match for each individual..”

- Melanie

Introduction:

Like many of you reading this… I did not start out in the hair business. I took the traditional path of going to University (Environmental Science) then getting a graduate degree in Spatial Analysis and eventually landing a decent paying government job. I stuck that out for 7 years, doing the 9-5 thing. I did like my job most days but hated sitting in a cubicle everyday and deep down I knew I was meant for more.

All of my life, I always looked up to entrepreneurs and especially the business owners that I worked under through my highschool and university jobs. I also always had a passion for hair and beauty. I was always that friend that was doing everyone else’s hair. But I always thought that a career in hairdressing was mediocre and didn’t pay well. Boy, was I wrong!

I started a little side business doing extensions to satisfy my need for running my own business and to satisfy my love of doing hair. It did require me to work every evening after my 9-5 and every weekend but still, I loved it! Fast forward a couple years later, and I quit my 9-5 to pursue my business full time. And I have never regretted it, not even once!

So my question to you is… are you looking for a new business opportunity that allows you to be your own boss and make a difference in the beauty industry?

If so, maybe it’s time I give you a few reasons why you should start your own hair extension business.💼

1. Such a high demand for nano hair extensions

First of all, nano hair extensions are one of the hottest trends in the hair extension industry right now. They are still relatively new, but they’re quickly destroying the competition and changing the hair extension game as a whole, winning over more and more clients with every installation. They are extremely popular because of their small size and comfortable application process. Nano hair extensions use tiny beads that attach to the clients’ natural hair, making them nearly invisible and very comfortable to wear.

Because they are so popular, there is an extremely high demand for skilled nano hair extension technicians, which means there is plenty of room for you to start your own business and offer your services to a growing client base.

2. You're in control as your own boss

Secondly, starting your own nano hair extension business allows you to be your own boss. You can set your own schedule and work as much or as little as you like. This means you can take on as many clients as you want, or keep it small and focus on providing high-quality services to a select few. Additionally, you can work from anywhere, whether it’s from your own home or renting a chair at a salon.

3. You have the potential to earn a higher income

Next, nano hair extensions have a high-profit margin, which means that you can make a good profit on each client. This can help you quickly build up your business and achieve your financial goals. What I liked most about having my own business was that I was in charge of how much I could make. I hated being stuck in a job where no matter what I did, how hard I worked, I knew it would only pay me “X” number of dollars per year. With having my own business, the harder I worked the more money I was making, and I loved that I solely was responsible for my own success.

4. Let your creativity and passion flourish

Finally, starting your own business also gives you the opportunity to express your creativity and passion for hair. You can create custom looks for your clients, experimenting with different colors and textures to create the perfect match for each individual. This allows you to showcase your skills and stand out in a crowded market. There’s also an opportunity to completely transform the way someone feels about themselves, (which is personally my favourite part).

Nano hair extensions are the only ones on the market today that can be used on very short, thin hair which is commonly seen on those who are struggling with medical hair loss.

To sum it up...

Helping people look and feel their best can be an incredibly rewarding and fulfilling job. With a nano hair extension business, you'll be helping people transform their appearance and boost their confidence all while making a great profit building your own business.
