finally a South African, sharing this content. thank you sis for this ❤️🙏 you have no idea how inspired I am. I have been doing my research for a long time now
Ohhh wow, I am so happy to know that this video is still helping out. Sometimes it nicer to see how other people are doing something you want to do because it gives you more ideas. Wishing you all the best.
God bless you. People ask me about what I use on my hair and when I tell them,they seem to have so much trust in me because it works for them. I might turn it into a business now. Thank you.
Woow thanks for the motivation, i will definitely start my Natural hair business i have been scared to start and i thought about it ibn 2019, Again this year then i decided to search on youtube how do people start then I found your Channel. Thank you so much i will get up and start❤️
Thank you so much for this, I'm still nervous to get started but I have been natural for a long time now. I think the best takeaway from your video is to test the market and I believe that that's where I can get started. Again thanks for the advice
Excuse me madam. You probably gave the MOST detailed description of having started a business EVER. I appreciate your honesty and candor. I had to subscribe, like and find you on Instagram.
Thank you for sharing. You have given me confirmation to get to work on my products. I don’t have much money to use, but I’m trusting God to guide me through.
Amazing video😍😍😍 my company is currently closed as my current supplier didn’t provide me with quality products but this video motivated me to go back to the drawing board ♥️♥️♥️
Wow you amazed me I wanted to start my hair care business but am still doing my research.not sure how am going to target ordinance but I still doing my research
thank you so much for this sis🥰. New subbie here. I definitely need to get back in the game, i needed this honest video from you. All the best with your hair journey💜
Thanks for the inspiration this was super motivating! Love your energy and would love to see more content on your haircare business journey and tactics you use to promote your brand
Thank you so much, i am starting my own business with the little that i have and finding this is really motivated me. And you saying Amazon is were you get some things makes it even more great to know coz thse people are really expensive here in Zambia. Thank you ❤️
Hi Vivian. Are you already established in this business? I did make hair butters and oils on a small scale but without labels and was mainly selling to friends and relatives. I want to grow the business. Iam also Zambian from Lusaka but currently in the United Kingdom. Likely to be back home next month March
Thank you so much for this Information, definitely something that I want to do but I had no idea how to start. You also make it look easy girl 🤗🤗 you work full time and still serve us good quality content 🤗🤗♥️♥️
I am glad this gave you an idea that it is possible, because it is very possible for everyone. There is space for everyone. 🥰🥰🥰 I am able to push so much content because I am still working from home. So I can sneak in a few hours in a day to record and edit at night. Thank you for engaging with my content 🙏🏾🥰 🤗🤗🤗
Congratulations to you!! I’m researching because I am will be starting my own natural hair care line. Where did you create your labels from again? I need advice.
No I did not, I am only going to register this year. Someone told me to register it once I am really sure. So I have been dragging my feet but I have to now because it will help for tax purposes since I have spent money towards the business. If you are sure about everything, I would say just register it and get a separate bank account.
@@JennNxumalo You are a very sweet lady. You can even guide someone where to get packaging. Some RUclipsrs don't. I tried to ask for links to some of them for links to their some products because am also in the process of starting my own business but they don't respond. Iam currently in the United Kingdom but iam Zambian and will be going back home next month and hope to start slowly
Strange thing is that I did not register my business, I wanted to try it first before legalizing it. And lol two years in it was still not registered ®🤣😂😂
Hi jenn I’ve been trying to start my own line of natural hair as well but I don’t know where to find a proper packaging , and containers, can you help me please 🙏🏽. I’m in South Africa
Thank you Ma Nxumalo. I started one myself recently focusing on leave in conditioner and oil. Great information. Any idea of a chemist that I can use to test the conditioner, I am using organic things like aloe vera etc..
Heyyyyyy sis 😊😊❤❤ I dropped everything when I saw your story on Instagram 😋😋💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 So can't wait to learn more , since well I want to start my own natural products... So do people have to compliment you before you start or must you firstly test it on your hair??? 🤔🤔🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ We don't care about the products as long as the product is doing the work 🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 The problem is coming up with a name for the business💔💔🤣🤣🤣 So you bought the oil and sold it again??? 🤔🤔🤔... Did you buy a raw shea butter or??? I want to start making hair products and start selling it... I want to do something 😒😒... The information here is so legit and so open.. This is so beautiful 😭😭❤❤.. So can't wait for many videos 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 I really enjoyed this video 😭😭❤❤ #Roadto100
❤️❤️❤️ so much love, thank you. I am going to try answer some of your questions. 1. I would say you can’t sell something that you don’t use, if you decide to start a product base business you must be the face of it as well. It’s easy to talk about something you are using and works for you. Getting compliments from people about my hair gave me the idea of starting the business. 2. I bought Raw Shea Butter, then I mix it with oils. 3. You can start a business and trust me, it does not have to be fancy, so long as it’s good people will appreciate that. 4. When I started the business I was buying oils from retail shops and mixing them, but it was costing me a lot. So now source oils and Shea butter from distributors. Thank you so much for the best wishes Road to 100 subscribers. Are you liking the business content?
@@JennNxumalo To be honest I love them so much because I gain more knowledge... I think it will be best if I send you a DM on Instagram regarding this business 🙈🙈😋😋
Hi! I did not get them tested mainly because I used natural oils and raw shea butter. But before I sold them I used them on my hair. I did not register the business because I was still testing and was not sure if I will continue with it or the name.
Hi! Nomvula, the barcode is important if you will have your products in the retail shop and you will need to register for it. Otherwise if you are going to sell the products yourself you don’t need a barcode, you can use a dummy one.
Thanks Jen would you please share your suppliers for butters and oil....I'm in the process of starting a skin care business, I just don't know where to start with the suppliers
Hi! I did a video which is more recent than this one sharing that I closed this part of my business. I used to buy my oils through Amazon that was before the pandemic. But you can check on Instagram, Facebook, and Google for suppliers of oils and Shea butter.
Hi! It was all trial and error and what helped is that I was not working with chemicals. I only used Natural ingredients that do not need any balancing.
I am not sure about the amounts because that varies from business to business and the cost associated to it. But if you are sure and serious about the business making a big investment makes sense.
finally a South African, sharing this content. thank you sis for this ❤️🙏 you have no idea how inspired I am. I have been doing my research for a long time now
Ohhh wow, I am so happy to know that this video is still helping out. Sometimes it nicer to see how other people are doing something you want to do because it gives you more ideas. Wishing you all the best.

God bless you.
People ask me about what I use on my hair and when I tell them,they seem to have so much trust in me because it works for them. I might turn it into a business now.
Thank you.
Sometimes we think we have to invent new things, while we have assets at our disposals to create something good.
Woow thanks for the motivation, i will definitely start my Natural hair business i have been scared to start and i thought about it ibn 2019, Again this year then i decided to search on youtube how do people start then I found your Channel. Thank you so much i will get up and start❤️
Sometimes our fears hold us back, start and many things you will learn as you go.
Thank you so much for this, I'm still nervous to get started but I have been natural for a long time now. I think the best takeaway from your video is to test the market and I believe that that's where I can get started. Again thanks for the advice
It can be very scary, but I believe that if your plans and vision don’t scare me, I am not challenging myself.
Try and push through the fear, you will enjoy it.

Thank you so much for this inspiration video
You are so welcome!
Hi! Thank you for sharing; it's really informative. Please I'd like to know: which oils are you using?
Hi! Thank you. I used Jamaican Black Castor oil, Sweet Almond oil, Coconut oil, Rosemary, and fragrance oils.
@@JennNxumalo
Oh! OK. Thank you for this info, will work something out. Do enjoy the week ahead.
i just ran into this i have few questions. is the business still running ? were you afraid to start and how did you deal with the fear of failure ?
It is not running anymore, I was not scared of failure and it did fail. Most importantly I learned a lot.
May you please help me which shop in Pretoria sells packaging containers & how long does it take to get things from Amazon???
Hi! Here is a link to a video I did on the topic. ruclips.net/video/RtH7-sBQyTI/видео.html
Thank you so much for this Jennifer🙏🏾🙏🏾 Did you also register your company before starting your business?
No I did not, I am only going to register this year. Someone told me to register it once I am really sure. So I have been dragging my feet but I have to now because it will help for tax purposes since I have spent money towards the business. If you are sure about everything, I would say just register it and get a separate bank account.
Hey thnx how did you go about trademark your business n the cost
Congratulations
Thank you
Thank you Jen. This is very informative. Can you give the name for the company you get your packaging❤️
Hi! Candice, I used a local business in Pretoria. But if you are in South Africa check out BonPack they are very affordable.
Thank u🤗❤️
@@JennNxumalo You are a very sweet lady. You can even guide someone where to get packaging. Some RUclipsrs don't.

This was so helpful. Thank you
Thank you Neliswa for watching.
Thanks l'm from Zambia
Ohhh 🥰 thank you
Hi lv a strongly on how can I get labels
I did mine on canva and printed them with a printing company in Pretoria. Check out a video I did on packaging you will have the details you need.
I have lot's of questions 🤦♀️
Did you open a shop or you were just doing it online?
And can one start with 1 product only such as hair oil only?
I want to start but I’m scared, are there any legal requirements I need to follow? Like registering the Business?
I loved your video. In terms of the legal side of things. What did you have to do? Like register your brand, etc?
Strange thing is that I did not register my business, I wanted to try it first before legalizing it. And lol two years in it was still not registered ®🤣😂😂
Hi love I’m not sure if you’ll see this but can you please help me with the Shea butter suppler please 🙏🏾
Yohhh it was a long time ago, I don’t have their contact details anymore.
Hi jenn I’ve been trying to start my own line of natural hair as well but I don’t know where to find a proper packaging , and containers, can you help me please 🙏🏽. I’m in South Africa
Hi! Check out BonPack they have affordable prices.
Thank you Ma Nxumalo. I started one myself recently focusing on leave in conditioner and oil. Great information. Any idea of a chemist that I can use to test the conditioner, I am using organic things like aloe vera etc..
That’s great Zwide, I am not clued up with Chemist because I did not use them.
Hey dear, do you still sell the hair oil.. thinking of starting same and was wondering how is it going.
No I don’t, I stopped a while ago. I just fell out of love with hair and everything that comes with it.
@@JennNxumalo thanks
Heyyyyyy sis 😊😊❤❤
I dropped everything when I saw your story on Instagram 😋😋💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
So can't wait to learn more , since well I want to start my own natural products...
So do people have to compliment you before you start or must you firstly test it on your hair??? 🤔🤔🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
We don't care about the products as long as the product is doing the work 🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
The problem is coming up with a name for the business💔💔🤣🤣🤣
So you bought the oil and sold it again??? 🤔🤔🤔... Did you buy a raw shea butter or???
I want to start making hair products and start selling it... I want to do something 😒😒...
The information here is so legit and so open.. This is so beautiful 😭😭❤❤.. So can't wait for many videos 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
I really enjoyed this video 😭😭❤❤

❤️❤️❤️ so much love, thank you. I am going to try answer some of your questions.
1. I would say you can’t sell something that you don’t use, if you decide to start a product base business you must be the face of it as well. It’s easy to talk about something you are using and works for you. Getting compliments from people about my hair gave me the idea of starting the business.
2. I bought Raw Shea Butter, then I mix it with oils.
3. You can start a business and trust me, it does not have to be fancy, so long as it’s good people will appreciate that.
4. When I started the business I was buying oils from retail shops and mixing them, but it was costing me a lot. So now source oils and Shea butter from distributors.

Great video!!! New Subbie!
Hello dear, I am your new subscriber from Washington D.C., you said we can buy labels from Canva?
Hi! Thank you for joining our fam. I use Canva to design then take them for printing.
thanks a lot
You are most welcome
i wanted to buy your hair products but i cant find it - did you stop ?
Yes I a long time ago.
Thank u so so much
Thanks for the video , do i need to register my brand or a business to start..
Is it important that you do so before you formalise your business?
Hi dear how to do labels I want to do small business help me please
I did them on Canva, I need to know the dimensions so your designs come out perfectly.
Hi
I want to start my own hair oil product
Can you please guide me?
Hi! You should do some research here on YT, also learn about good oils to mix.
Thank you so much for this❤.
Did you have to get your products tested and approved? Also, did you register your business?
Hi! I did not get them tested mainly because I used natural oils and raw shea butter. But before I sold them I used them on my hair. I did not register the business because I was still testing and was not sure if I will continue with it or the name.
@@JennNxumalo Okay, thank you🌼
Beautiful♥️ where did you buy your barcodes.can I sell a product if it doesn't have a barcode
Hi! Nomvula, the barcode is important if you will have your products in the retail shop and you will need to register for it. Otherwise if you are going to sell the products yourself you don’t need a barcode, you can use a dummy one.
Hi Sis. This is so informative. I am new to hairline business. How can one contact you?
Hi! I wish I can have time to help people individually but with everything I am trying to balance it’s not easy at all.
Thank u so much.this is the push I need.
Am making search about hair line business becus I want to start.
Please were can I get oils for hair growth?
In many cases that is exactly what we need. Thank you for watching 🙏🏾. I bought oils from Amazon but this was before the pandemic.
So did you need a business license or not to start
Thanks Jen would you please share your suppliers for butters and oil....I'm in the process of starting a skin care business, I just don't know where to start with the suppliers
Hi! I did a video which is more recent than this one sharing that I closed this part of my business. I used to buy my oils through Amazon that was before the pandemic. But you can check on Instagram, Facebook, and Google for suppliers of oils and Shea butter.
Hello beautiful.
Did you have to get licencing and permits for your business?
So real
You can just register your business sis
Do you have to register it??
Did you take any course or hire a chemist to formulate your recipes?Or was it trial and error that made you come up with the perfect recipe?
Hi! It was all trial and error and what helped is that I was not working with chemicals. I only used Natural ingredients that do not need any balancing.
Would you say 3000-4000 is more than enough to start ?
I am not sure about the amounts because that varies from business to business and the cost associated to it. But if you are sure and serious about the business making a big investment makes sense.
