Bryn Green of Hays, Kansas, has a 16-month-old son and a dream of starting a business that'll give her the flexibility to care for him.
For the past few years, Green has received sugaring services—a noninvasive, nonhazardous hair removal procedure that involves applying a sugar, water, and lemon juice paste to a client's skin. A sugaring business, she thought, could be "something that I could do part time" or on "a super flexible schedule that would allow me to stay home with my son and also provide some additional income for our family," Green tells Reason.
