I recently had my hair rebonded for the reason that Marlon said it needs to be rebonded. It was funny and I was a bit embarrassed so I asked Merryll and Arthur if they too think I should do something for my hair and they said it’s just that I don’t comb my hair often. Hahaha! Nice friends. For typical mid-length hair, the rate is P4,000++. By ++ meaning that 4,000 is just the minimum. I tried to canvass for the lowest price but of course not wanting to compromise the quality especially that hair treatment topics scare me. I’ve heard personal experiences and negative effects of hair treatment, and I don’t want to get bald.

I wanted to try a new salon. I went to Tony and Jackie last year and was not satisfied with the service of one of their staffs. She was pouting all the time and it hurt badly when she ironed my hair. During that time, I just wished it will all end soon. I did not complain and kept my mouth shut because I don’t know what she can do further with my hair if I make a negative comment to her. Fortunately, the process took only two hours.

So now I inquired from different salons including AZTA Urban Salon, Hair Bytes, and David’s Salon. They offered me more or less P8,000 for the rebonding. Whoa! That is quite pricey. I can buy more valuable things using this amount. So I decided to look for an alternative. I rode a cab and asked the driver to take me to the nearest Reyes Haircutters Salon. He dropped me off Reyes Haircutters Anonas branch. The rebond will cost me P2,000. This is already a quarter of what I have to pay when I go to other salons. I was amazed when I saw that this salon is open 24/7! This is the first time that I saw a salon that is open 24 hours a day. And they do have lots of customers lining up. I thought maybe because the price is friendly and the quality is acceptable or above average, I’m not sure. After 5 hours of really nice and careful rebonding process, my hair was done at 11:00 p.m and even if that’s a bit late, there are still customers rushing in. Good job Reyes Haircutters! Again, I think the key is a great location.

I thought of getting my own franchise and thought of what product/service would be this good and would bring in income for me. Being a first timer, I do not want to risk huge amount for this first venture but until now I’m thinking. And oh, being fickle-minded as always, I am now thinking of cutting my hair short.

Anyway, here are few franchises for those who want to start small. These are actually priced lower compared to more popular brands out there so if you want to try one of these or just check the detailed ROI, I can refer you to the franchisor. Be a good and moral person – if you learnt this from me, hope you can make put me as the referrer ;) Contact me at 09178656199.
