Default Lina-Home hair Stylist in Milton Keynes

Good day everyone.

I am Lina - a Hair Stylist from Milton Keynes.

I have just equipped my new salon at home and looking forward to get more ideas about promotion and basically letting people know I am there.

I extensively use linkedin as well which a professional network with interesting forums and discussions where there is a good opportunity to make some useful acquaintances which I hope to gain from here too.

I have also just created a website of mine Hairdressers in Milton Keynes which still requires a lot of work to do on, so it would be very useful to get some tips on this on the content and on the SEO techniques as well.

I also like to discuss hairstyle related topics, especially for wedding, since I am specialized in bridal hairstyles and hair ups for wedding.

Lina

Welcome to MLF Lina, great to see someone actually creating a home salon, its either a front room or back of the car industry, so nice to see you taking it to the next level!

Thank you for the warm welcome.

What do you mean by the "next level" ?

By doing it differently, so many people start up and drive around in a little pink car with a bag full of scissors and rollers, you seem to have set up a Salon at home! So keeping costs down, whilst still giving a Salon atmosphere!

Hope to see you getting bigger and bigger!

That is the intention but lets see whether I am wasting my life (not just time) or not

If you think you can, you are right!
if you think you can't, you are right!

You decide what happens! Not the amount of clients you get!!

If you do not get enough you can fold, or try another way of getting more clients!

I think it depends on what you actually want to achieve

Hi Lina! I love the idea of a home-based salon. The noise levels in town-centre salons with half a dozen stylists working at once drive me barmy.
