A young lady refutes a man’s claim that most female small business owners have other sources of income that allow them to afford Range Rovers and large houses.
This follows the death of an Ibadan vendor who was discovered dead in a hotel room. On Twitter, @Gboye Raves stated that the profit from microblading and lashes is insufficient to afford the Range Rovers and mansions that many flaunt.
In his words;
“Dear Lagos girls, it’s not the profit from your micro blading and lashes that bought you that Range Rover velar neither is it Snapchat ads that gave you money to buy that Mercedes of over 30 million and it’s still not the sale of your whitening lotion that bought you that house in Lekki.
Please y’all should shut the fuck up with your stupid motivations and enjoy your opportune source of wealth in peace! Thank you because every small thing ‘advise for you ladies’ please.”
In a counterargument, @Chiamakaabebe stated clarified the statement by disclosing the millions of naira that her nail technician makes.
“Man stfu, do you know how profitable these businesses are? My lash tech told me she makes over 4m monthly on average, meaning sometimes she makes more.
Per day she makes at least 80-150k. The cheapest lash extension cost about 10k and the most is 15k, micro blading varies from 25k-40k. She does pedicure too, piercings, and facials.
Do you know how many girls come to the shop everyday? No matter how early I go there’s always a queue And she’s even the “affordable” lash technician on the mainland, talkless of the ones on the island who Offer these services for way more.
Imagine being on this business for years, you can comfortably buy a house an expensive car. If you don’t know something just shut up.”
