My New Hair Salon

I am still getting more information about starting my new business. I got some books from the library to help me out and I am online a lot trying to get info like from the Small Business Administration site. I need to figure out how much money I will need to get by finding out how much it will cost for everything including:
salon chairs, floor mats, flooring and inside construction of shop, products for sale and use, shampoo bowls, kitchen area, electricity setup, rent payments, etc. There is a lot more than this. I have a list worked out that I keep adding to.
I need to go have my salon name searched and held for me by the county. I guess I might be able to do that on Monday. Then apply for a loan. If I can get the money, I believe that this business would do good. I have a great location picked out! In a well-to-do neighborhood! I want to lock in my space before too many other salons get in the same area! Because then there would be too much competition to strive. And also, they might not let me in.
I am very excited about this and I think it can work! Wouldn't that be great?
I need business cards and advertisement fliers! I hope I get the support that I need.
