(Every situation be it relationship, love or bussines has a reason, betty kyalo says that she left her salon bussiness to go for a more spacious and luxurious job, but why do that? Wasn't she afraid of counting losses in her new intended spacious and luxurious bussines?)
The salon has shifted in three locations
• Betty Kyallo has moved her salon business, Flair By Betty, for the third time.
• It opened to the public on April 14, 2018, at the FCB Mihrab building on Lenana Road.
Flair by Betty's CEO
Media personality Betty Kyallo has moved her salon business, Flair By Betty, for the third time.
It opened to the public on April 14, 2018, at the FCB Mihrab building on Lenana Road.
She later announced that she was moving her business venture to a more spacious and luxurious location.
In June 2020, Flair By Betty moved to Rose Avenue, and its launch was attended by Mama Ida Odinga.
"Just strategise. Get with it, do not stop things, especially business, because corona is here with us. Just take caution,” Betty said at the time.
And now on Wednesday, Flair By Betty was relaunched during her 34th birthday at Rose Avenue/George Padmore Road junction in Kilimani, Nairobi.
Speaking during the launch, Betty said her business was struggling at her previous location.
"My dream and the energy I have for my clients is to always deliver nothing but excellence," she said.
"I believe in that and that is why, if it takes another location to get that, we will go for it unapologetically."
Betty said the new location was birthed when a lot of businesses were going through a hard time.
"Any entrepreneur knows that things are not okay. I have the brain to think about how I can resuscitate new life to my business. How I will make new clients come and taste what we have," she said.
After not making the money she was expecting, she checked on the mistakes she was making, sat down with her team and decided what was wrong.
"One of the big issues with the previous location is that we did not have enough parking, and power blackout was an issue as the generator kept failing. The look was also not so classy," she said.
Betty said she also wanted to give her clients a fresh look at her business.
Many times, she wanted to quit, but she advised her guests on the need to sit back and re-strategise.
"Every situation is worth a comeback, whether relationship, business or anything that you are doing," she said.
"Do not fear starting afresh. Let us keep going after our dreams."
