It is not as simple as financing some beds. Being under funded is a primary cause of business failure. Equipment, build-out, deposits, signs, insurance, furnishings, operating capitol. These are just a few of the things to be concerned with. If you have good credit, you are a home owner and have 30% of the amount you want to borrow in cash, you are good to go. If not, start working on getting these things in line for a future project.

Re: My own salon!

run. run as far away from the thought of owning your own salon. It isn't worth it. You spend every moment of your life wrapped up in the salon and it will consume you. so RUN!!!

Did you know that is a characteristic of running just about any other business?
