I've never seen people doing hair at a flea market. you should be more specific about what you are talking about.

I know what she means. You mean like spray painting cool colors on the hair, and braiding it, and braiding like thread and beads into it. Talk to whoever is doing the carnivales, you can also advertize in the yellow pages,s o they will call you. i do professional clowning, and we are hired at a lot of these, i don't do hair their but i've seen it, now they can pay you two diff ways, you can charge your own price, and give some to them, or they can hire you to do it, and give you a blanket price. say one hundred dollars for one hour, and then you can offer your braids to the public for free. Do you know what i mean, or you can like charge per customer, and split what you get with the carnivale people, or give them rent. You would almost make more, doing the blanket price, they provide you space, and set up for you.

Yes thats what im talking about braiding ect. didnt know if there was anything out there unique to do . I know i paid 6.00 for 3 min henna tatoo figured why not try something myself. As for flea market and hair in houston white elephant unless she changed has a hair booth in there and she does haircuts seen another one somewhere . Not wanting to do that though just something differnt to make extra money and advertise my salon at same time.

you could do colored extensions (not full heads) just a few strands here and there. Not cheap to start though. You have to buy the rings the tools and the hair.

I would also check the tatoo parlers . I'm sure you would get some business frfom there also.

that's a good idea about the tattoo parlors, if you could even team up with them to some extent, when you do fundraiser or whatever that would be excellent, it would bring you both more business.
