27 year old TJ Bouchada is the founder of private nail salon Moody Cow Nails.

TJ took out her loan of £12,000, via Let’s Do Business Finance, to open her own private nail salon, having been made redundant from the salon she worked in previously.

At just 27, TJ has always dreamed of starting her own business, so she seized the opportunity for a fresh start, inspired by the growing demand for high-quality wellness and beauty treatments.

She used the finance to rent her own shop and purchase the necessary supplies to get her business off the ground. Now, she’s on a mission to create a franchise of boutique nail salons in the Milton Keynes area, offering personalised services that elevate the beauty experience.

As the newly appointed South East Ambassador for Start Up Loans, I'm honoured to be part of a movement that empowers entrepreneurs like myself. The loan was essential in enabling me to open my salon and pursue my dream of being my own boss. I hope I can inspire other young people to take that leap and start their own journey.
