At age 27, Alba works selling clothing and applying acrylic nails to generate income, support her husband with household expenses, and to invest in her business. Alba remembers that she began by doing her mother's fingernails, and later was motivated to start her business.
Alba has knocked on the doors of MiCrédito in order to request a Kiva loan to buy pants, nail polish, tweezers, nail clippers, and brushes. With this investment, she will be able to continue developing her business.
She dreams of having her own beauty salon.
