    Once a good clientele has been built, start learning new treatments such as waxing, semi-permanent lashes etc. to increase profits in the future.

    I will then continue working my way up to continue doing Fashion looks for the like of high-end companies as well as some Freelance in between when there's few jobs available. Costs may be quite a lot or paid for by the company but my kit will be expensive by now.
