Amigos Fortes Group's story

 Sirlene, the first one from right to left in the photo, is a humble and determined woman.  She lives in her own house with her husband and was born in the capital city of Sao Paulo.

She works as a hairdresser and began working independently ten years ago prompted by the desire to become financially independent. She started slowly, working out of her own house, performing hair straightening and progressive treatments for neighbors and friends.  Over time, she took a professional training course, and as the demand for her services increased, she expanded the variety of services offered. As a result of her dedication and professional growth, she achieved her dream of opening her own salon in 2018. 

With the help of the loan, she will invest in the purchase of shampoo, conditioner, moisturizers and other hair products.

The group is grateful to the investors for the opportunity.
