Downing: Quilt will provide scholarship dollars Corvallis Gazette Times

All summer a lovely hand-made pastel colored quilt hung outside the tiny storefront several blocks west of downtown Philomath and next door to the local barbershop. These days, the quilt is safely tucked inside of Holly's Sew Silly, a shop full of yarn, threads and other sewing supplies that opened its doors on June 1. The stunning quilt on display is being raffled off in honor of owner Holly Young's mother, Johanna Bullock, who lived in Summit from the early 1990s until her death in 2009.

Named "Grandmother's Flower Garden," the quilt won second place in its division at the 2010 Benton County Fair.

The proceeds of the raffle will be donated to the Summit Star Quilters' Scholarship fund. Johanna was for many years one of the backbones of the quilting group and many relied on her expertise and enthusiasm in creating the yearly raffle quilts for the Summit Summer Festival.

Due to her mother's influence, crafts have always been Holly's "thing." Watching her mother sew from a very early age, Holly was inspired to start embroidering as soon as she could hold a needle. From there she learned to knit, crochet and do all kinds of needlework.

Could there be a barber shop, beauty salon, or beaty supply that will hire me at 14 in Atlanta, Georgia.?

Anything that will help me to get money and help oput my mom and family.


in order to work in a barber shop and a beauty salon you must have a barbering or a cosmetology license that is every where in the USA .maybe if you know the owner of a shop you can maybe stock shelves or sweep up hair clean up ,but i don't know if you can actually get paid for it i think in most states you have to be at least 16 to work and get paid for it and then you still would need a work permit from school and sign by your parents .but if you really like cosmetology see if some ones willing to just let you hang out and chill at there shop watch them work learn a few pointers and get the feel for the biz you know. i have been a cosmetologist for 8 years and i love it and that's how i started just chillin at the shop watching you can make really good money if you know your stuff so go on girl and ask your local salon if they would have some free time to explain the ropes too you.

Is this a good deal for a new barber?

I went to barber school and finished about three months ago. This place wants to hire independent contractors, but also sets the prices for work. For example, if you have a crew cut and just need it touched up with electric clippers, that's $8. Regular hair cut is $12. Shampoo, cut and blow dry is $16. A beard trim or shave is $8. Manicure is $10 and so on.
The prices are moderate to low. They claim to have a high volume. To work there, you have to hand over 50% of your sales (they don't touch your tips) and you have to supply all your own equipment, towels, shampoo, etc. They want you to gurantee them $400 per week, which means $800 is work or 67 men's hair cuts at $12.
This is an "old school" mens barber shop. No women customers. Most workers are old pros who can do your hair with mostly clippers and little if any shears in about 10 minutes or less.
I don't have that experience and can't work that fast. I don't want to get fired after my 1st week. Does this seem like a good deal?
As for towels, I don't have to wash them at home or in a laundromat. They supply a washer and dryer. I have to keep up with them myself. I will need 4 dozen towels to start at a cost of $16 per dozen. I have to keep my work area clean. There are no helpers. You just get the space and work in it.
That's my fear. Week one, maybe all I get is $400, so I work for nothing. After 2-3 weeks maybe more. Might take months to get a good following. I'm going to ask them to take 50% without the guaranteed $400 for the first month or so.


Sounds like a good way to gain some experience, and then move on if something better comes along. I know a lot of people who work this way, contracting the space and so on. It seems to be an industry standard.

If they actually have a contract, read it thoroughly before signing it, and if there's a stipulation about paying them out-of-pocket if 50% of your sales don't come to the $400, you can reconsider.

I'd look around a bit, first, to see if I could find a better deal and if not go ahead and go for it. If I figure it right, that's about 12 to 14 haircuts a day, five days per week. You may have to work longer hours at first to get the number of cuts you'll need, but after a few months, it'll be old hat to you. Just get there a little early, take half an hour for lunch and plan to stay a bit late if you need to.

The main thing, at first, will be getting good cuts. The more you do, the faster you'll get at it, so don't let that bother you. The better the guys' hair looks, the more pleased they'll be and the better tips you'll get... which will be even better. You'll have people coming in asking for you to do their haircuts and then you'll have a regular clientele that may actually follow you if you were to go someplace else in say, a year or so... if you decide to. You'll get the hang of doing it faster over time, and then you'll be able to make some good money and be doing what you like at the same time.


I don't think it sounds like a good deal at all. That is a huge amount of volume and pressure on you to be sure you find clients. My daughter just finished her apprenticeship in hairstyling, worked for $10/hr plus tips through the apprenticeship. Once you are on the floor, it works out to nearly $39/hr and she supplies only her scissors, blow dryer and trimmers which she got in hair school. If you really sit down and do the math, once you factor in your supplies, you are making next to nothing with this deal. I think you can find much better. If you work in a higher end shop, they will supply everything and teach you as well. I think it's more about personality and style than speed, which is the only way to earn anything in the shop you described.
Keep looking for something better.
