“May quit notices not be your portion” – Lady stuns many as she rents dilapidated shop in Lagos, transforms it to her taste with her own money

A Nigerian lady has captivated the online community with her inspiring tale of turning a rundown shop she rented into a stylish studio in Lagos.

The talented makeup artist, @kikismakeover_, shared her journey on TikTok, detailing the arduous three-month search for a suitable shop space in the bustling city of Lagos.

Despite facing challenges such as limited availability of rented spaces and escalating rental prices, she persevered in her quest. Eventually, she was forced to compromise and settle for a less-than-ideal shop.

Undeterred by the shop’s rough appearance, she initiated a renovation project to convert the space into a suitable studio for her business.

The transformation was truly remarkable. @kikismakeover_ shared a captivating video documenting the dramatic makeover of the shop.

The dilapidated ceiling, once on the verge of collapse, was substituted with a sleek POP design, while the entire area received a fresh coat of paint.

Additionally, she made strategic investments in constructing partitions using blocks, effectively optimizing the space for her makeup business.

The video showcasing the shop’s transformation swiftly went viral, sparking an influx of reactions from amazed netizens.
