Hi there,
Posting this I feel a little crazy (and wish I hadn't used my name when setting up my account all those years ago), but after much lurking and vague whimsical dreams of having my own business ripping the hair from strangers I've decided to do it.
I have no pervious beauty therapy experience, just a personal interest. I love the boost in self confidence you can get from a little pampering and self maintenance. I feel like I have found a niche where I am living and want to provide male waxing services. I realise this is a specialised area and requires skill and confidence.
I have just started a waxing course, and plan to start operation my business on its competion. I guess my concern is that I will be jumping in too soon, before my skill level is good enough alienating future clientel. I live in an isolated area so I only get once chance. Working for another business is not an option for various reasons.
What I really want is for somebody to tell me to go hell for leather and I'll be successful - to jump right on in the deep and and swim hard. On the other hand I don't know enough to know when I don't know enough - and I don't want to risk what savings my son and I have (being a single mum).
Any and all opinions welcomed. Any advice on ensuring success? Or similar stories/experiences?
Thank you!
