    Thank yoi for the tips beautiful. I really needed this. I've been told many times to start a braiding business but I never really had the courage to and I doubt myself alot. I'm now a mum and I don't think I can work anymore for someone else anymore and I've been thinking of turning my hobby and what I'm good a t into a business from home. I just need some guidance and study as well to be a hair professional stylist (braids).

    I literally just got fired from my job and decided to take braiding seriously. I’ve been doing my own/family hair since 2019. I believe I’m pretty talented but I have doubt with the entire business idea.

      That depends on your state. If you are just starting out work on family and friends until you can get into a shop. Many shops will let you work if you are working towards your license. Good luck.

    How many clients do you take a day? How do you space them out if you take more then one a day I’m a cosmetologist getting back in the field on the bracing side and I worry about how to schedule it out or how man to take a day I hear some people will do styles that take longer like micro braid then the rest of the day do easier after styles ? How do you do it please I’d love a response ❤️ your name indybindy braids is so cute also do you supply hair if you do do you charge more or the same as if they bring hair

    • @Indybindy
      @Indybindy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      hey love! Im glad you're getting back into it I love that for you!! Because I'm also a full time student I only take a maximum of 2 clients a day because a lot of the time I have class during the day. On days that I do take 2, I schedule styles based on my work hours. So for example, if on fridays I work from 9am-5pm I can either schedule 2 four-hour or less appointments, 1 eight-hour appointment, or depending on the time slot two appointments that fill up the slot. The longer appointments cost more, so I still will make the same amount of money by taking 1 client instead of multiple. And yes I charge more to supply hair but I just add it in the price. Also thank you!! I was trying to find something that rhymes with my name lol!
