Toni from Chicago, IL

I'm a veteran working hard to start my own salon! I'm close & need basic gear to open

I have 20 yrs experience as a nail tech & aesthetician. I'm ready to start my own salon but need to replace equipment stolen during my move to Chicago

Overview

I'm a veteran of the US Army Reserves and a Beauty Professional with over 20 years of experience as a Nail Technician and Aesthetician (both in medical and cosmetology settings). When I relocated to Chicago, I lost some of my equipment and I would love to get back to the business of beauty because it is what I enjoy doing and it’s where my heart is.

My goal is to refresh my skills in a salon so that I can go back to work and take steps toward entrepreneurship.

I need supplies to begin the work again as a nail technician and aesthetician equipment to provide proper beauty services.

Meeting this need will help me get into a salon where you must bring your own tools. It will give me a new chance to develop my skills and fulfill my passion for the beauty industry.
