PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This prospectus summary does not contain all of the information that should be considered before investing in our common stock.

Our Company
We are one of the fastest growing cosmetology businesses in Sichuan. Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China through Chengdu BOAN Investment Management Co., Ltd (“BOAN”), our wholly-owned subsidiary in China, and through our contractual arrangements with several of our consolidated affiliated entities in China, including Sichuan SHESAYS Cosmetology Hospital Co., Ltd. (“SHESAYS”) and its subsidiaries.
SHESAYS was established in May 2005. Over the past five years, it has become one of the fastest growing cosmetology businesses in Sichuan. The headquarter hospital of SHESAYS has 297 employees, occupying premises of approximately 36,324 square feet and receiving more than 20,000 customers each year over the past two years.
SHESAYS specializes in cosmetology treatments, integrating medical treatment and education. At present, we have such core clinical departments as cosmetic surgery, cosmetic dermatology, cosmetic dentistry, cosmetic Traditional Chinese Medicine (“TCM”). Services include cosmetic plastic surgery, skin care, cosmetic dentistry and cosmetic TCM.
Headquartered in Chengdu, Sichuan province, P.R. China, SHESAYS aims to expand its business outside of Chengdu. In 2010, SHESAYS established three new outpatient clinics in the cities of Yibin, Leshan and Zigong, Sichuan province, and is constructing the second flagship store, a comprehensive cosmetology hospital in Chengdu.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, we generated revenues of $8,834,673 and achieved a net income of $1,766,442, which represents a growth of 98% and 27,517% compared to the previous fiscal year respectively. This increase is attributed to our increased sale to the existing and new customers in 2009. Our sales network has been expanded quickly and our customer base continues to increase. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had revenues of $9,210,165 as compared to revenues of $6,794,850 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $2,415,315, or 36%. We had net income in the amount of $1,871,233 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared with $2,249,749 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Corporate History and Organizational Structure
We are a holding company operating through our wholly-owned subsidiary, BOAN, located in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, PR China.
We were incorporated on January 18, 2002 in Nevada under the original name “Klean Kast Solutions, Inc”. On April 22, 2007, we filed amended and restated articles and changed our name to “SN Strategies Corp.” Prior to the consummation of the business combination described below, we were a shell company with nominal operations and nominal assets.
- 5 -
On June 7, 2010, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Perfect Support Limited, which we refer to as Perfect Support (the “June 2010 Business Combination”). Perfect Support was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on January 15, 2010 and is the owner of all of the issued and outstanding registered capital of BOAN. BOAN was organized under the laws of the PRC as a wholly-owned foreign enterprise on April 27, 2010. On April 27, 2010, BOAN entered into a series of contractual agreements with SHESAYS and the stockholders of SHESAYS in which BOAN provides management and consulting services to SHESAYS and its subsidiaries in exchange for service fees. SHESAYS and its subsidiaries agreed to pay 100% of its residual return to BOAN. Based on these contractual arrangements, Perfect Support, through BOAN, becomes the primary beneficiary of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries.
In connection with the June 2010 Business Combination, our name was changed to “China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc.” to better align our name with our cosmetology business.

(2) This prospectus relates to the resale by the selling of 648,000shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 600,000 shares were issued to certain of the selling stockholders in connection with the Private Placement, and 48,000 shares of common stock are issuable upon exercise of warrants that were issued to Chief Capital Limited as Chief Capital Limited’s compensation for services in connection with the offshore Private Placement.

Background
On November 5, 2010, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors relating to the issuance and sale of 600,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $2.00 per share, in a private placement transaction. The aggregate purchase price for the Shares was $1,200,000. The sale of the Shares to the investors closed on November 12, 2010. The aggregate gross proceeds received by our company were $1,200,000. Net proceeds received from the Private Placement may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, we have made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants. Additionally, we have granted registration rights to the investors whereby we have agreed to file, within 60 days of the closing (the “Required Filing Date”), a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register the Shares for resale, and to used our best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective. If a registration statement is not filed before the Required Filing Date, then we must pay liquidated damages to the investors in an amount equal to 1.0% of the amount subscribed for by the investors per month until such registration statement is filed with the Commission.
- 7 -
In addition, for a period of three years after the closing, if we issues any shares of Common Stock for less than $2.00 per share or for no consideration (the “Additional Shares”), then the per share price under the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be reduced to the lowest price per share at which such Additional Shares are issued, granted or sold.
Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, if our after-tax net income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011 is less than our after-tax net income for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010, or if any Chinese governmental agency challenges or otherwise takes any action that adversely affects our listing of securities and we are unable to address such adverse effect to the reasonable satisfaction of the investors, then we must pay to each investor, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to that investor’s purchase price plus compound interest at a rate of 8%.
Techno Meg Limited, an affiliate of the Company (the “Make Good Pledgor”), also has agreed to transfer to the investors, on a pro rata basis, 600,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned by the Make Good Pledgor in the event the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect less than $6,400,000 of after-tax net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
Pursuant to a Financial Advisory Services Agreement entered into between SHESAYS, and Chief Capital Limited, a Hong Kong licensed corporate finance advisor, on November 12, 2010, the Company issued to Chief Capital Limited a warrant to purchase 48,000 shares of Common Stock as part of Chief Capital Limited’s compensation for services in connection with the Private Placement. The warrants are exercisable for a period of two years from June 7, 2010 at a price of $2 per share.
The common stock and the warrant issued in the Private Placement are being offered and sold to investors without registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The Company is relying upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation S promulgated thereunder (“Regulation S”).

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described below as well as the other information in this prospectus and in any accompanying prospectus supplement. The risks we have described are not the only ones facing our Company. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business operations. Any of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. You should not invest in our securities unless you can afford to lose all of your investment.
Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry
Product liability claims or treatment malpractice claims could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in adverse effects or our treatments or procedures are claimed to be malpractice. While we take what we believe are appropriate precautions, we may not be able to avoid significant product liability exposure. We currently do not have product liability insurance or malpractice insurance. Although we have yet to face a product liability claim or a treatment malpractice claim, the assertion of this type of claim could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult for you to evaluate our business and prospects.
We began our current business operations in May 2005. Accordingly, we have a limited operating history for our current operations upon which you can evaluate the viability and sustainability of our business and its acceptance by consumers. It is also difficult to evaluate the viability of our business model because we do not have sufficient experience to address the risks frequently encountered by every level of branches newly established and when entering new regional markets. These circumstances may make it difficult for you to evaluate our business and prospects.
Our senior management and employees have worked together for a short period of time, which may make it difficult for you to evaluate their effectiveness and ability to address challenges.
Due to our limited operating history and recent additions to our management team, certain of our senior management and employees have worked together at our company for only a relatively short period of time. As a result, it may be difficult for you to evaluate the effectiveness of our senior management and other key employees and their ability to address future challenges to our business.
Our medical care personnel may have errors in plastic surgery operation, which would cause clinic incidents and adversely affect our ability to generate revenue from our cosmetology services, and our financial condition and results of operations.
Medical care personnel may have errors in plastic surgery operation, and clinical test products may be risky. If a serious medical negligence/malpractice happened, our brand image would be severely impaired, which would affect our ability to generate revenue from our cosmetology services, and our financial condition and results of operations.
There may be more advanced appliances and equipment or diagnosis and treatment methods which may constitute challenge against SHESAYS.
We need to upgrade our techniques and equipment continuously to keep our technique advantage. In respect of external environment, there may be more advanced appliances and equipment or diagnosis and treatment methods which may constitute challenge against SHESAYS. In response to such challenge, we will continue to strengthen employee training to enhance professional abilities and also continue to raise our research level, operative skills and update equipment to maintain our leading status in cosmetology techniques in the region.
- 9 -
Our revenue is particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions and cosmetology trends.
Demand for our cosmetology services, and the resulting cosmetology spending by our clients, is particularly sensitive to changes in general economic conditions and their disposable income. During periods of economic downturn, people may reduce the money they spend on cosmetology, which would materially and adversely affect our ability to generate revenue from our cosmetology services, and our financial condition and results of operations.
A substantial majority of our revenues are currently concentrated in Chengdu. If the city experiences an event negatively affecting its cosmetology industry, our ability to generate adequate cash flow would be materially and adversely affected.
Though we will expand our business across Sichuan Province, substantial majority of our revenues are currently concentrated in Chengdu. We expect Chengdu to continue to be the important sources of our revenues. If the city experiences an event negatively affecting its cosmetology industry, such as a serious clinical incident, negative changes in government policy, a natural disaster, our ability to generate adequate cash flow would be materially and adversely affected.
We may not be able to successfully expand our business network into new regions which could harm or reverse our growth potential and our ability to increase our revenues, or even result in a decrease in revenues.
We are pursuing a strategy to expand our service network into new regions. Based on the Chengdu headquarters, we aim to expand our business into other cities of Sichuan province and nation wide. As of date, we have established a comprehensive cosmetology hospital, three new outpatient clinics in Yibin city, Leshan city and Zigong city, and are planning to set up the second flagship hospital in Chengdu.
In the new cities, we may compete with local competitors and encounter new difficulties, which could harm or reverse our growth potential and our ability to increase our revenues, or even result in a decrease in revenues.
We face intensive competition, and if we do not compete successfully against new and existing competitors, we may lose our market share, and our profitability may be adversely affected.
We compete with some of the largest cosmetology hospitals such as Huamei Zixin Medical Cosmetology Hospital, Chengdu Dahua Medical Plastic Hospital in southwest China. We compete for plastic surgery clients primarily on the basis of network size and coverage, location, price, technique level, the range and the quality of services that we offer and our brand name. We also compete for such business as esthetic dentistry, gynecology / male plastic surgery with private dental clinics and cosmetology departments in regular public hospitals. Increased competition could reduce our operating margins and profitability and result in a loss of market share. Some of our existing and potential competitors may have competitive advantages, such as significantly greater financial, marketing or other resources and may be able to mimic and adopt our business model. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete against new or existing competitors.
We depend on the leadership and services of Mr. Yixiang Zhang, who is our founder, chairman, and our largest shareholder, and our business and growth prospects may be severely disrupted if we lose his services.
Our future success is dependent upon the continued service of Mr. Yixiang Zhang, our founder and chairman and largest shareholder (pursuant to an agreement Mr. Zhang signed with a major shareholder of the Company on April 27, 2010, Mr. Zhang is able to purchase 8,970,012 shares of the common stock of our company for a nominal price within 5 years from the execution date of such agreement and become the largest shareholder of the Company). We rely on his industry expertise and experience in our business operations, and in particular, his business vision, management skills, and working relationships with our employees, our other major shareholders and many of our customers. If he was unable or unwilling to continue in his present position, or if he joins a competitor or forms a competing company in violation of his employment agreement and non-compete agreement, we may not be able to replace him easily or at all. As a result, our business and growth prospects may be severely disrupted if we lose his services.
Our expansion plan would be restricted by the need of updating our management systems and shortage of human resources.
With the expansion of our business, our management systems and shortage of human resources may become factors restricting our company’s development. We expand our business with a rapid speed, and our current management systems may not be timely updated and there might not be enough talents to be recruited. We will continue to establish and improve our management systems such as counter-crisis plans and organization & position design systems. We will also continue to enhance our medical care personnel’s training and continue our efforts in recruiting high-quality employees.
- 10 -
If we do not continue to expand and maintain an effective sales and marketing team, it will cause short-term disruptions of our operations, restrict our sales efforts and negatively affect our cosmetology service revenue.
Many of our sales and marketing personnel have only worked for us for a short period of time. We depend on our marketing staff to explain and introduce our service offerings to our existing and potential customers. We will need to further increase the size of our sales and marketing staff as our business continues to grow. We may not be able to hire, retain, integrate or continue to motivate our current or new marketing personnel which would cause short-term disruptions of our operations, restrict our sales efforts and negatively affect our cosmetology service revenue.
We may need additional capital and we may not be able to obtain it, which could adversely affect our liquidity and financial position.
To further expand our business into other cities, we have recently opened three new outpatient clinics in Leshan, Yibin and Zigong cities in Sichuan province. The 9,263 square feet clinic in Leshan, the 8,851 square feet clinic in Yibin and the 13,912 square feet clinic in Zigong primarily provide a range of customized services including medical cosmetology, cosmetic surgery, cosmetic dentistry, and cosmetic dermatology. In the future, we plan to set up more new hospitals and outpatient clinics nation wide. As a result, we may require additional cash resources. If these sources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity.
Our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:
investors’ perception of, and demand for, securities of alternative cosmetology hospital;
conditions of the U.S. and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds;
our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows;
PRC governmental regulation of foreign investment in cosmetology hospitals in China;
economic, political and other conditions in China; and
PRC governmental policies relating to foreign currency borrowings.
We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our stock may be adversely impacted.
Our reporting obligations as a public company will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls in the future, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud and investor confidence and the market price of our stock may be adversely impacted.
- 11 -
We will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company.
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, has required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Business and to Our Structure
If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our China business do not comply with PRC governmental restrictions on foreign investment in the medical industry, we could be subject to severe penalties.
Substantially all of our operations are or will be conducted through our indirectly wholly-owned operating subsidiaries in China, which we collectively refer to as our PRC operating subsidiaries, and through our contractual arrangements with our consolidated affiliated entities in China. PRC regulations require any foreign entities that invest directly in the medical services industry to have direct operations in the medical industry outside of China. In addition, foreign entity is not allowed in China to set up wholly-owned medical institute although the foreign entity is permitted to set up a joint venture medical institute with Chinese entities. Foreign investors are permitted to hold shares of the joint venture medical institute at maximum of 70%.
We do not currently directly operate medical services outside of China and cannot qualify under PRC regulations before we commence any such operations outside of China or until we acquire a company that has directly operated a medical services business outside of China. Accordingly, since we have not been involved in the direct operation of medical services business outside of China, our domestic PRC subsidiary, BOAN, which is considered foreign-invested, is currently ineligible to apply for the required medical services licenses in China. While our indirect PRC operating subsidiaries are eligible for the required licenses for providing medical services in China and some of our indirect PRC operating subsidiaries have obtained such licenses, we have been using and are expected to continue to use PRC operating affiliates and their subsidiaries to operate a significant portion of our medical business for the foreseeable future. We have entered into contractual arrangements with PRC operating affiliates and their respective subsidiaries, pursuant to which we, through our PRC operating subsidiaries or non-PRC subsidiaries, provide technical support and consulting services to our PRC operating affiliates and their subsidiaries. In addition, we have entered into agreements with our PRC operating affiliates and each of their shareholders which provide us with the substantial ability to control these affiliates and their existing and future subsidiaries.
If we, our existing or future PRC operating subsidiaries and affiliates are found to be in violation of any existing or future PRC laws or regulations or fail to obtain or maintain any of the required permits or approvals, the relevant PRC regulatory authorities, including the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, or SAIC, which regulates cosmetology hospitals, would have broad discretion in dealing with such violations, including:
revoking the business and operating licenses of our PRC subsidiaries and affiliates;
discontinuing or restricting our PRC subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ operations;
imposing conditions or requirements with which we or our PRC subsidiaries and affiliates may not be able to comply;
requiring us or our PRC subsidiaries and affiliates to restructure the relevant ownership structure or operations; or
restricting or prohibiting our use of the proceeds of this offering to finance our business and operations in China.
- 12 -
The imposition of any of these penalties would result in a material and adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.
We rely on contractual arrangements with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries and shareholders for a substantial portion of our China operations, which may not be as effective in providing operational control as direct ownership.
We rely on contractual arrangements with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries and shareholders to operate our medical business. For a description of these contractual arrangements, see “PRC Structure.” These contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing us with control over SHESAYS as direct ownership. If we had direct ownership of SHESAYS, we would be able to exercise our rights as a shareholder to effect changes in the board of directors of SHESAYS which in turn could effect changes, subject to any applicable fiduciary obligations, at the management level. However, under the current contractual arrangements, as a legal matter, if SHESAYS or any of its subsidiaries and shareholders fails to perform its or his respective obligations under these contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs and resources to enforce such arrangements, and rely on legal remedies under PRC law, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which we cannot assure you to be effective.
Many of these contractual arrangements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through either arbitration or litigation in the PRC. Accordingly, these contracts would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit our ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. In the event we are unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over our operating entities, and our ability to conduct our business may be negatively affected.
Contractual arrangements we have entered into among our subsidiaries and affiliated entities may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities and a finding that we owe additional taxes or are ineligible for our tax exemption, or both, could substantially increase our taxes owed, and reduce our net income and the value of your investment.
Under PRC law, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities. If any of the transactions we have entered into among our subsidiaries and affiliated entities are found not to be on an arm’s-length basis, or to result in an unreasonable reduction in tax under PRC law, the PRC tax authorities have the authority to disallow our tax savings, adjust the profits and losses of our respective PRC entities and assess late payment interest and penalties.
As a result of this risk, you should evaluate our results of operations and financial condition without regard to these tax savings.
Our business operations may be affected by legislative or regulatory changes.
The regulatory department of the government may issue new rules and regulations which may raise higher requirements for operation, qualifications of employees and hardware levels. Changes in laws and regulations or the enactment of new laws and regulations governing plastic surgery, our business licenses or otherwise affecting our business in China may materially and adversely affect our business prospects and results of operations. Substantially all of our assets are located in China and substantially all of our revenues are derived from our operations in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal developments in China.
The PRC’s economic, political and social conditions, as well as governmental policies, could affect the financial markets in China and our liquidity and access to capital and our ability to operate our business.
The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While the PRC economy has experienced significant growth over the past, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall PRC economy, but may also have a negative effect on us. For example, under current PRC regulations, PRC regulations require any foreign entities that invest directly in the medical services industry to have direct operations in the medical industry outside of China. In addition, foreign entity is not allowed in China to set up wholly-owned medical institute although the foreign entity is permitted to set up a joint venture medical institute with Chinese entities. Foreign investors are permitted to hold shares of the joint venture medical institute at maximum of 70%. Moreover, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable to us.
- 13 -
The PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. Although the PRC government has implemented measures since the late 1970s emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the PRC government. In addition, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The PRC government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency- denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Since late 2003, the PRC government implemented a number of measures, such as raising bank reserves against deposit rates to place additional limitations on the ability of commercial banks to make loans and raise interest rates, in order to slow down specific segments of China’s economy which it believed to be overheating. These actions, as well as future actions and policies of the PRC government, could materially affect our liquidity and access to capital and our ability to operate our business.
The PRC legal system embodies uncertainties which could limit the legal protections available to you and us.
The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which decided legal cases have little precedential value. In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past 30 years has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. Our PRC operating subsidiary, BOAN, is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise which is an enterprise incorporated in China and wholly-owned by foreign investors. BOAN is subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investment in China in general and laws and regulations applicable to wholly foreign-owned enterprises in particular. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements change frequently, and their interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. For example, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we enjoy either by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. For example, these uncertainties may impede our ability to enforce the contracts we have entered into with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries. In addition, such uncertainties, including the inability to enforce our contracts, could materially and adversely affect our business and operation. In addition, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the PRC legal system, particularly with regard to the medical industry, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including our ability to enforce our agreements with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, and other foreign investors.
Recent regulations relating to offshore investment activities by PRC residents may increase the administrative burden we face and create regulatory uncertainties that could restrict our overseas and cross-border investment activity, and a failure by our shareholders who are PRC residents to make any required applications and filings pursuant to such regulations may prevent us from being able to distribute profits and could expose us and our PRC resident shareholders to liability under PRC law.
The PRC National Development and Reform Commission, or NDRC, and SAFE recently promulgated regulations that require PRC residents and PRC corporate entities to register with and obtain approvals from relevant PRC government authorities in connection with their direct or indirect offshore investment activities. These regulations apply to our shareholders who are PRC residents and may apply to any offshore acquisitions that we make in the future.
- 14 -
Under the SAFE regulations, PRC residents who make, or have previously made, direct or indirect investments in offshore companies will be required to register those investments. In addition, any PRC resident who is a direct or indirect shareholder of an offshore company is required to file with the local branch of SAFE, with respect to that offshore company, any material change involving capital variation, such as an increase or decrease in capital, transfer or swap of shares, merger, division, long term equity or debt investment or creation of any security interest over the assets located in China. If any PRC shareholder fails to make the required SAFE registration, the PRC subsidiaries of that offshore parent company may be prohibited from distributing their profits and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation, to their offshore parent company, and the offshore parent company may also be prohibited from injecting additional capital into their PRC subsidiaries. Moreover, failure to comply with the various SAFE registration requirements described above could result in liability under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions.
We cannot assure you that all of our shareholders who are PRC residents will comply with our request to make or obtain any registrations or approvals required under these regulations or other related legislation. Furthermore, as the regulations are relatively new, the PRC government has yet to publish implementing rules, and much uncertainty remains concerning the reconciliation of the new regulations with other approval requirements. It is unclear how these regulations, and any future legislation concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant government authorities. The failure or inability of our PRC resident shareholders to comply with these regulations may subject us to fines and legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our ability to inject additional capital into our PRC subsidiaries and the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make distributions or pay dividends, or materially and adversely affect our ownership structure. If any of the foregoing events occur, our acquisition strategy and business operations and our ability to distribute profits to you could be materially and adversely affected.
The PRC tax authorities may require us to pay additional taxes in connection with our acquisitions of offshore entities that conducted their PRC operations through their affiliates in China.
Our operations and transactions are subject to review by the PRC tax authorities pursuant to relevant PRC laws and regulations. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements change frequently, and their interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. For example, in the case of some of our acquisitions of offshore entities that conducted their PRC operations through their affiliates in China, we cannot assure you that the PRC tax authorities will not require us to pay additional taxes in relation to such acquisitions. In the event that the sellers failed to pay any taxes required under PRC law in connection with these transactions, the PRC tax authorities might require us to pay taxes, together with late-payment interest and penalties.
If any of our PRC affiliates becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or liquidation proceeding, we may lose the ability to use and enjoy those assets, which could reduce the size of our cosmetology service network and materially and adversely affect our business, ability to generate revenue and the market price of our stock.
To comply with PRC laws and regulations relating to foreign ownership restrictions in the medical business, we currently conduct our operations in China through contractual arrangements with SHESAYS, its shareholders and subsidiaries. As part of these arrangements, SHESAYS and its subsidiaries hold certain of the assets that are important to the operation of our business. If any of these entities goes bankrupt and all or part of their assets become subject to liens or rights of third-party creditors, we may be unable to continue some or all of our business activities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries undergoes a voluntary or involuntary liquidation proceeding, its shareholders or unrelated third-party creditors may claim rights to some or all of these assets, thereby hindering our ability to operate our business, which could materially and adversely affect our business, our ability to generate revenue and the market price of our stock.
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize our revenues effectively.
Substantially all of our revenues and operating expenses are denominated in Renminbi. The Renminbi is currently convertible under the “current account”, which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account”, which includes foreign direct investment and loans. Currently, BOAN may purchase foreign exchange for settlement of “current account transactions”, including payment of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that the relevant PRC governmental authorities will not limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount of our future revenues will be denominated in Renminbi, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenues generated in Renminbi to fund our business activities outside China, if any, or expenditures denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign exchange transactions under the capital account are still subject to limitations and require approvals from, or registration with, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange and other relevant PRC governmental authorities. This could affect BOAN’s ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing, including by means of loans or capital contributions from us.
- 15 -
Fluctuations in exchange rates could result in foreign currency exchange losses.
Because our earnings and cash and cash equivalent assets are denominated in Renminbi fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollars and Renminbi will affect the relative purchasing power of our revenue and our balance sheet and earnings per share in U.S. dollars. In addition, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Since July 2005 the Renminbi is no longer pegged solely to the U.S. dollar. Instead, it is reported to be pegged against a basket of currencies, determined by the People’s Bank of China, against which it can rise or fall by as much as 0.3% each day. This change in policy has resulted in the gradual increase in the value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar over time. Between July 2005, when China began its Renminbi exchange rate reform, and the end of 2009, the value of the Renminbi has appreciated by 21.21 percent against the U.S. dollar and up by 2.21 percent against the Euro. The Renminbi may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the long term, depending on the fluctuation of the basket of currencies against which it is currently valued or it may be permitted to enter into a full float, which may also result in a significant appreciation or depreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we might issue in the future which will be exchanged into U.S. dollars and earnings from and the value of any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.
Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We do not intend to enter into any hedging transactions. Even if we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currency.
Because our funds are held in banks in uninsured PRC bank accounts, the failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could affect our ability to continue our business.
Funds on deposit at banks and other financial institutions in the PRC are often uninsured. A significant portion of our assets are in the form of cash deposited with banks in the PRC, and in the event of a bank failure, we may not have access to our funds on deposit. Depending upon the amount of money we maintain in a bank that fails, our inability to have access to our cash could impair our operations, and, if we are not able to access funds to pay our suppliers, employees and other creditors, we may be unable to continue in business.
Failure to comply with the U.S. foreign corrupt practices act and Chinese anti-corruption laws could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.
Our executive officers, employees and other agents may violate applicable law in connection with the marketing or sale of our products, including China’s anti-corruption laws and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. In addition, we are required to maintain records that accurately and fairly represent our transactions and have an adequate system of internal accounting controls. Foreign companies, including some that may compete with us, are not subject to these prohibitions, and therefore may have a competitive advantage over us. The PRC also strictly prohibits bribery of government officials. However, corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in the PRC.
- 16 -
While we intend to implement measures to ensure compliance with the FCPA and China’s anti-corruption laws by all individuals involved with our company, our employees or other agents may engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our brand and reputation, our sales activities or our stock price could be adversely affected if we become the target of any negative publicity as a result of actions taken by our employees or other agents.
Risks Relating to Regulation of Our Common Stock
Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.
Mr. Yixiang Zhang is our chief executive officer and currently, the sole member on the Board of Directors. Pursuant to an agreement Mr. Zhang signed with a major shareholder of the Company on April 27, 2010, Mr. Zhang is able to purchase 8,970,012 shares of the common stock of our company for a nominal price within 5 years from the execution date of such agreement and become the largest shareholder of the Company. See “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.” Accordingly, Mr. Zhang and other executive officers who hold the Company’s common stock are able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.
There is currently a very limited trading market for our common stock.
The market for our common stock is limited and we cannot assure you that a larger market will ever be developed or maintained. Currently, our common stock is traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. Securities traded on the OTC Bulletin Board typically have low trading volumes. Market fluctuations and volatility, as well as general economic, market and political conditions, could reduce our market price. As a result, this may make it difficult or impossible for our shareholders to sell our common stock.
We do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We currently intend to retain all future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries based in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on its ability to make distributions to us, including restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions. See “Risks relating to Regulation of Our Business and to Our Structure” above.
Our common stock is subject to the Penny Stock Regulations.
Our common stock is, and will continue to be subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules to the extent that the price remains less than $5.00. Those rules, which require delivery of a schedule explaining the penny stock market and the associated risks before any sale, may further limit your ability to sell your shares.
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our common stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000, together with their spouse).
For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their common stock in the secondary market.
- 17 -
Our common stock is illiquid and subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.
The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.
A large number of shares of common stock will be issuable for future sale which will dilute the ownership percentage of our current holders of common stock. The availability for public resale of those shares may depress our stock price.
Also as a result, there will be a significant number of new shares of common stock on the market in addition to the current public float. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, and the existence of warrants to purchase shares of common stock at prices that may be below the then current market price of the common stock, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.
Enforcement against us or our directors and officers may be difficult.
Because our principal assets are located outside of the U.S. and a majority of our directors and officers, both present and future, reside outside of the U.S., it may be difficult for you to enforce your rights based on U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors or to enforce a U.S. court judgment against us or them in the PRC.
In addition, our operating company is located in the PRC and substantially all of its assets are located outside of the U.S. It may therefore be difficult for investors in the U.S. to enforce their legal rights based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. Federal securities laws against us in the courts of either the U.S. or the PRC and, even if civil judgments are obtained in U.S. courts, to enforce such judgments in PRC courts. Further, it is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the U.S. and the PRC would permit effective enforcement against us or our officers and directors of criminal penalties under the U.S. Federal securities laws or otherwise.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus covers the resale from time to time by the selling stockholders identified in the table below of up to 648,000shares of our common stock, of which 600,000 shares were issued to certain of the selling stockholders in connection with the Private Placement and 48,000 shares of common stock are issuable upon exercise of warrants that were issued to Chief Capital Limited as part of Chief Capital Limited’s compensation for services in connection with the Private Placement. The shares were issued in accordance with the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(2) of such Act for issuances not involving any public offering and the Regulation S promulgated thereunder. We are registering the shares to permit the selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest to, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions when and as they deem appropriate in the manner described in the “Plan of Distribution.” As of the date of this prospectus there are 18,600,012 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
- 18 -
The following table sets forth, as of November 29, 2010, the name of each selling stockholder, the number and percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder prior to the offering for resale of the shares under this prospectus, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by each selling stockholder that may be offered from time to time under this prospectus, and the number and percentage of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder after the offering of the shares (assuming all of the offered shares are sold by the selling stockholder.
Pursuant to a Financial Advisory Services Agreement entered into between SHESAYS, and Chief Capital Limited, the Company issued to Chief Capital Limited a warrant to purchase 48,000 shares of our common stock as Chief Capital Limited’s compensation for services in connection with the Private Placement.
None of the selling stockholders is a broker dealer.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and includes any shares of common stock as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any shares of common stock which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through conversion of any security or pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or revocation of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. Shares of common stock subject to warrants that are currently exercisable within 2 years after June 7, 2010 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding those securities for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other shareholder.

(1) Unless otherwise noted, the selling stockholder became one of our shareholders pursuant to the Private Placement.
(2) This number represents all of the securities the selling stockholders received in the Private Placement, which we agreed to register in this Registration Statement.
(3) Since we do not have the ability to control how many, if any, of their shares each of the selling stockholders listed above will sell, we have assumed that the selling stockholders will sell all of the shares offered herein for purposes of determining how many shares they will own after the offering and their percentage of ownership following the offering.
(4) Consists of 48,000 shares of our common stock underlying warrants which may be exercised through June 7, 2012 at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. Such warrants were issued to Chief Capital Limited as Chief Capital Limited’s compensation for services in connection with the Private Placement. The address for Chief Capital Limited is 14/F Man Yee Building, 68 Des Voeux Rd, Central, Hong Kong.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The selling stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated prices.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits investors;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions;
to cover short sales made after the date that this registration statement is declared effective by the SEC;
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
through the distribution of common stock by any selling stockholder to its partners, members or stockholders;
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law; and
a combination of any such methods of sale.
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
- 21 -
Upon a selling stockholder’s notification to us that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of such stockholder’s common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act disclosing (i) the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon our being notified in writing by a selling stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the donees, assignees, transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed any necessary supplements to this prospectus under Rule 424(b), or other applicable provisions of the Securities Act, supplementing or amending the list of selling stockholders to include such donee, assignee, transferee, pledgee, or other successor-in-interest as a selling stockholder under this prospectus.
In the event that the selling stockholders are deemed to be “underwriters,” any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares will be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of the shares of common stock will be paid by the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling stockholder has represented and warranted to us that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement for his/her own account for investment and not for the benefit of any other person and not with a view to distribute or sell in violation of the Securities Act or any state securities laws or rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
If a selling stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this registration statement.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive proceeds from the sale of common stock under this prospectus. We will, however, receive approximately $96,000 from certain selling stockholders if they exercise their warrants in full, on a cash basis, which we will use for working capital and general corporate purposes. The warrant holders may exercise their warrants at any time until their expiration, as further described under “Description of Securities.” Because the warrant holders may exercise the warrants in their own discretion, if at all, as well as on a cashless exercise basis in their own discretion, we cannot plan on specific uses of the proceeds beyond application of proceeds to general corporate purposes. We have agreed to bear the expenses (other than any underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions) in connection with the registration of the common stock being offered hereby by the selling stockholders.

MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK AND RELATED MATTERS
Trading Information
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board maintained by the NASD under the symbol CSAY.OB. The transfer agent for our common stock is Island Stock Transfer at 100 Second Avenue, South Suite 705S, St. Petersburg, FL 33701.
The following table sets forth the high and low closing bid prices for our common stock for the fiscal quarters indicated as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board. The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.
&nbs p; | High | Low |
2010 | ||
Fourth Quarter ended December 31, 2010 | $2.50 | $0 |
Our common stock is thinly traded and any reported sale prices may not be a true market-based valuation of our common stock. Prior to the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2010, there was no trading activity of our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
Pursuant to a Financial Advisory Agreement, we agreed to issue warrants to purchase 48,000 shares of our common stock to Chief Capital Limited in the Private Placement. The warrants are exercisable for a period of 2 years from the date of reverse merger on June 7,2010, with issuance price of $2 per share (subject to certain adjustments including a full ratchet anti-dilution adjustment in the case of certain issuances of shares of common stock at a price below the current exercise price), with cashless exercise rights.
As of January 5, 2011, there were approximately 260 owners of record of our common stock.
Trades in our common stock may be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, which imposes requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction before the sale.
Our shares are subject to rules applicable to “penny stock” which pertain to any equity security with a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share. Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. A broker-dealer must also provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer, and sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in our shares.

Dividend Policy

We intend to retain any future earnings for the operation and expansion of our business. Any decision as to future payment of dividends will depend on the available earnings, the capital requirements of our Company, our general financial condition and other factors deemed pertinent by our Board of Directors.

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

BUSINESS
Overview
We are one of the fastest growing cosmetology businesses in Sichuan. Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China through Chengdu BOAN Investment Management Co., Ltd (“BOAN”), our wholly-owned subsidiary in China, and through our contractual arrangements with several of our consolidated affiliated entities in China, including Sichuan SHESAYS Cosmetology Hospital Co., Ltd. (“SHESAYS”) and its subsidiaries.
SHESAYS was established in May 2005. Over the past five years, it has become one of the fastest growing cosmetology businesses in Sichuan. The headquarter hospital of SHESAYS has 297 employees, occupying premises of approximately 36,324 square feet and receiving more than 20,000 customers over the past two years.
SHESAYS specializes in cosmetology treatments, integrating medical treatment and education. At present, we have such core clinical departments as cosmetic surgery, cosmetic dermatology, cosmetic dentistry, cosmetic Traditional Chinese Medicine (“TCM”). Services include cosmetic plastic surgery, skin care, cosmetic dentistry and cosmetic TCM.
Headquartered in Chengdu, Sichuan province, P.R. China, SHESAYS aims to expand its business outside of Chengdu. In 2010, SHESAYS established three new outpatient clinics in Yibin, Leshan and Zigong City, Sichuan province, and is constructing the second flagship store, a comprehensive cosmetology hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, we generated revenues of $8,834,673 and achieved a net income of $1,766,442, which represents a growth of 98% and 27,517% compared to the previous fiscal year respectively. This increase is attributed to our increased sale to the existing and new customers in 2009. Our sales network has been expanded quickly and our client base continues to increase. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had revenues of $9,210,165 as compared to revenues of $6,794,850 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $2,415,315, or 36%. We had net income in the amount of $1,871,233 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared with $2,249,749 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
The increase in our operating results in the last two years is attributable to a number of factors, including the substantial increase of domestic cosmetology demand and successful brand promotion. We expect our business to continue to be driven by the following factors:
Increasing domestic spending in Cosmetology
The demand for our cosmetology service is directly related to consumer’s cosmetology spending, which is largely determined by the economic conditions and disposable income of consumers. According to the statistics released by National Bureau of Statistics of China, China’s economy has experienced a rapid growth in the last thirty years. The annual growth rate has been in the range of 9% to 13% in the last five years. China’s GDP per capita has been over $3,000 since 2007, which marks a new starting point in terms of consumption. With economic growth of a country with 1.3 billion people, China’s increased consumption has upgraded many traditional consumption industries and accelerated development of many new industries, such as medical cosmetic industry. The national medical cosmetic market reached approximately $439 million last year but compared with $60 billion in the United States, there is still a huge gap. We believe that the domestic spending in cosmetology will continue to increase at a fast rate within the next five years as consumer’s disposable income continues to grow.
Successful Promotion of Our Brand Name
Mr. Yixiang Zhang, our CEO, owned a trademark registered at the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China, namely,“西婵” (translated as “SHESAYS” in English). Mr. Zhang has entered into an agreement with SHESAYS to allow SHESAYS to use the trademark without charge. “SHESAYS” will appear as our core brand. In addition, SHESAYS registered a trademark at the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China, namely, “钧阁” (translated as “Junge” in English). Junge will appear in our clinics and skincare centers.
- 25 -
The logo “SHESAYS” combined the names of two of the four great beauties in ancient China, Xi Shi and Diao Chan, and embodies grace and joy, stimulating the people to pursue beauty. The logo conceives rich visual impact and imagination, which contains profound cultural connotations and is easy to promote.
Corporate History
We are a Nevada corporation incorporated on January 18, 2002, under the name Klean Kast Solutions, Inc. In April 2007, we filed amended and restated articles and changed our name to SN Strategies Corp. On July 6, 2010, we changed our name from SN Strategies Corp. to China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc in connection with the June 2010 Business Combination. References herein to “we, “us” “our” or the “Company” refer to China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc. and where applicable its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. Our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board of the NASD, under the symbol CSAY.OB, whereas before our name change, our shares were quoted under the symbol SNGI.OB.
On June 7, 2010, we acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Perfect Support through the merger with China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Merger Sub”), wholly owned by the Company. Perfect Support is a holding company whose only asset is 100% of the registered capital of BOAN. Substantially all of Perfect Support's operations are conducted in China through BOAN, and through contractual arrangements with BOAN’s consolidated affiliated entity in China, SHESAYS. Immediately before our June 2010 Business Combination, we had no material assets and no material operations and therefore we were considered a “shell company” (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act). As consideration for the acquisition of Perfect Support and SHESAYS, of the total 18,000,012 Company common stock issued and outstanding post the merger, 13,500,012 shares were issued to the stockholders of Perfect Support and their designees respectively as new issuance at merger, 4,230,000 shares were purchased by Techno Meg Limited, a majority stockholder of Perfect Support, and Leading Pioneer Limited, a minority stockholder of Perfect Support, from certain original stockholders of the Company subject to and in conjunction with and immediately after the closing of the merger, and 270,000 shares were held by the original stockholders of the Company.
PRC Structure
Substantially all of our operations are conducted in China through BOAN, our wholly-owned subsidiary in China, and through our contractual arrangements with several of our consolidated affiliated entities in China, including SHESAYS and its subsidiaries.
PRC regulations require any foreign entities that invest directly in the medical services industry to have direct operations in the medical industry outside of China. No foreign entity is allowed in China to set up a wholly-owned medical institute. However, a foreign entity is permitted to set up a joint venture medical institute with Chinese entities. Foreign investors are permitted to hold shares of the joint venture medical institute at maximum of 70%.
We do not currently directly operate medical services outside of China and cannot qualify under PRC regulations. Since we have not been involved in the direct operation of medical services business outside of China, our domestic PRC subsidiary, BOAN, which is considered foreign-invested, is currently ineligible to apply for the required medical services licenses in China. Our medical services business is currently provided through contractual arrangements with our consolidated affiliated entities in China, including SHESAYS and its subsidiaries. SHESAYS is owned by 5 PRC citizens. SHESAYS and several of its subsidiaries hold the requisite licenses to provide medical services in China.
SHESAYS and its subsidiaries directly operate our cosmetology hospitals. We expect to continue to depend on SHESAYS and its subsidiaries to operate our medical services until we qualify for direct ownership of a medical business in China under PRC laws and regulations and acquire SHESAYS and its subsidiaries as our direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries, as described below. BOAN has entered into contractual arrangements with SHESAYS and shareholders, pursuant to which, we are able to exert effective control over SHESAYS and its subsidiaries; a substantial portion of the economic benefits of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries will be transferred to us; and BOAN or its designee has an exclusive option to purchase all or part of the equity interests in SHESAYS, all or part of the equity interests in SHESAYS’s subsidiaries that are owned by SHESAYS or its nominee holders, or all or part of the assets of SHESAYS, in each case when and to the extent permitted by PRC law.
- 26 -
In connection with its entry into the World Trade Organization, China is required to relax restrictions on foreign investment in the medical industry in China. We do not currently know how or when we will be able to qualify under these regulations. Even if we do qualify in the future, it may be burdensome or not cost effective for us to meet the required criteria for direct ownership. If and when we qualify for direct ownership, we intend to explore the commercial feasibility of changing our current structure, including possibly direct ownership of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, taking into consideration of relevant cost, market, competitive and other factors. In the event we take such steps, we cannot assure you that we will be able to identify or acquire a qualified foreign company for a possible future restructuring or any restructuring we may undertake to facilitate direct ownership will be successful.
Agreements that Transfer Economic Benefits to Us
Pursuant to our contractual arrangements with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, BOAN provides management and consulting services to SHESAYS and its subsidiaries in exchange for service fees. The service fees shall equal to 100% of the residual return of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries which can be waived by BOAN from time to time in its sole discretion.
Agreements that Provide Effective Control over Sichuan SHESAYS and its future Subsidiaries
We have entered into the following agreements with SHESAYS and its subsidiaries that provide us with effective control over SHESAYS and its subsidiaries:
(i) an exclusive service agreement, pursuant to which SHESAYS and its subsidiaries irrevocably entrust to BOAN the right of management and operation of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries and the responsibilities and authorities of their shareholders and directors of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries;
(ii) a voting rights proxy agreement, pursuant to which the shareholder of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries have granted the personnel designated by BOAN the right to appoint directors and senior management of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries and to exercise all of their other voting rights as shareholders of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, as the case may be, as provided under the articles of association of each such entity;
(iii) a call option agreement, pursuant to which:
(a) neither SHESAYS nor any of its subsidiaries may enter into any transaction that could materially affect its assets, liabilities, equity or operations without the prior written consent of BOAN;
(b) neither SHESAYS nor any of its subsidiaries will distribute any dividends without the prior written consent of BOAN and
(c) BOAN or its designee has an exclusive option to purchase all or part of the equity interests in SHESAYS, all or part of the equity interests in SHESAYS subsidiaries owned by SHESAYS or its nominee holders, or all or part of the assets of SHESAYS, in each case when and to the extent permitted by PRC law. In case of BOAN exercising the call option in its sole discretion upon the occurrence of the situation in which such call option exercise become feasible under the relevant laws in PRC, any additional consideration paid other than the $1.00 which may be required under the laws of China to effect such purchase to comply with such legal formalities shall be either cancelled or returned to SHESAYS immediately with no additional compensation to the owners; and
(d) an equity pledge agreement pursuant to which each of shareholders of SHESAYS has pledged his or her equity interest in SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, as the case may be, to BOAN to secure their obligations under the relevant contractual control agreements, including but not limited to, the obligations of SHESAYS and its subsidiaries under the exclusive services agreement, the call option agreement, the voting rights proxy agreement described above, and each of them has agreed not to transfer, sell, pledge, dispose of or create any encumbrance on their equity interest in SHESAYS or its subsidiaries without the prior written consent of BOAN.
See “Related Party Transactions” for further information on our contractual arrangements with these parties.
- 27 -
Pursuant to the opinion of our PRC legal counsel:
the ownership structures of BOAN, SHESAYS and its subsidiaries, both currently and after giving effect to this merger, are in compliance with existing PRC laws and regulations;
the contractual arrangements among BOAN, SHESAYS and its subsidiaries governed by PRC law are valid, binding and enforceable, and will not result in any violation of PRC laws or regulations currently in effect; and
the business operations of BOAN and SHESAYS and their respective subsidiaries, as described in this Form S-1, are in compliance with existing PRC laws and regulations in all material respects.
However, in spite of the above, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC laws and regulations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the PRC regulatory authorities, in particular the SAIC which regulates medical institutes, will not in the future take a view that is contrary to the above opinion of our PRC legal counsel. If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our PRC medical business do not comply with PRC government restrictions on foreign investment in medical businesses, we could be subject to severe penalties. See “Risk Factors — If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our China business do not comply with PRC governmental restrictions on foreign investment in the medical industry, we could be subject to severe penalties”, “— Our business operations may be affected by legislative or regulatory changes” and “— The PRC legal system embodies uncertainties which could limit the legal protections available to you and us”.
Intellectual Property
Mr. Yixiang Zhang, our CEO, owned a trademark registered at the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China, namely, “西蝉” (translated as “SHESAYS” in English). Mr. Zhang has entered into an agreement with SHESAYS to allow SHESAYS to use the trademark without charge. “SHESAYS” will appear as our core brand.
In addition, SHESAYS registered a trademark at the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China, namely, “钧阁” (translated as “Junge” in English). Junge will appear in our clinics and skincare centers.
Marketing
We market our cosmetology services directly to the customers. Our marketing strategy consists of the following five sub-strategies: promotions, advertisements, internet marketing, three-level cosmetic service model and membership management system.
Promotions
Our promotions mainly include:
General sales promotion: general discount for group buy, coupons and promotions;

Combination of traditional media and interaction media;
Advertisement coverage on major media;
Increasing exposure on high-end media to obtain new customers from higher segment markets.
- 28 -
Internet Marketing
Our internet marketing is also one of the important components in our brand strategy and plays a vital role in our brand development. With our official website (www.xichan.cn), we carry out “experience marketing” and “consultation marketing” on the internet.
Internet experience marketing: it mainly promotes our services, medical experts, advanced equipments and hospital information by text, graphics, audio and video so that the potential customers on the internet can understand the scope of our services and our hospital.
Internet interaction marketing: we apply comprehensive internet marketing strategies and professional internet marketing technology. The potential customers and our medical consultants can communicate with each other through multiple real-time communication tools. Users can see the contact information of the consultants on each page. They can communicate through text, video and audio chat, which enable us to timely communicate with customers and establish our brand name for our business.
Three-level Cosmetic Service Model of SHESAYS
Three-level service model is an important component of our marketing strategy. Through this model, the first level, our flagship hospital, provides advanced medical cosmetic service including comprehensive plastic surgery service, and large operation projects, while the second level, chain clinics in secondary markets, focus on simple cosmetic operations, laser skincare procedures, and large plastic surgery related consultation, as well as the third level, skincare centers, provide post-service consultation. Such model effectively supports more sales networks by providing services based on different areas’ needs and spending habits.
Membership Management System
According to the three-level service model, we will establish cosmetic clinics and skincare centers in most cities in Sichuan. The skincare centers not only carry out brand promotion activities of SHESAYS, but also provide member database for our flagship hospital and secondary cosmetic clinics.
Competition
We compete with some of the largest cosmetology hospitals such as Huamei Zixin Medical Cosmetology Hospital, Chengdu Dahua Medical Plastic Hospital in southwest China. We compete for plastic surgery clients primarily on the basis of network size and coverage, location, price, technique level, the range and the quality of services that we offer and our brand name.
We also compete for such business as esthetic dentistry, gynecology/male plastic surgery with private dental clinics and cosmetology departments in regular public hospitals.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This discussion should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this prospectus, including the related exhibits. The various sections of this discussion contain a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this prospectus. See “Risk Factors.” Our actual results may differ materially.
We are a Nevada corporation incorporated on January 18, 2002. On July 6, 2010, we changed our name from SN Strategies Corp. to China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc in connection with the merger closed on June 7, 2010. References herein to “we, “us” “our” or the “Company” refer to China SHESAYS Medical Cosmetology Inc. and where applicable its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries. Until our June 2010 Business Combination, we had no material assets and no material operations. On June 7, 2010, we acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Perfect Support. Perfect Support is a holding company whose only asset is 100% of the registered capital of Chengdu BOAN Investment Management Co., Ltd (“BOAN”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“China” or “PRC”). Substantially all of Perfect Support's operations are conducted in China through BOAN, and through contractual arrangements with BOAN’s consolidated affiliated entity in China, Sichuan SHESAYS Cosmetology Hospital Co., Ltd (“SHESAYS”). Through SHESAYS, we operate one of the fastest growing and well-known cosmetology businesses in China.
Our business operates in China and accounts are denominated in Chinese Renminbi (RMB), but we report our financial results in our SEC filings in U.S. dollars. The conversion of our accounts from RMB to U.S. dollars results in translation adjustments, which are reported as a line item after net income and before comprehensive income. The net income is added to the retained earnings on our balance sheet; while the translation adjustment is added to a line item on our balance sheet labeled “accumulated other comprehensive income,” because it is more reflective of changes in the relative values of U.S. and Chinese currencies than of the success of our business. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we recorded foreign currency translation gain of $1,073 and $2,605 respectively..

For the year ended December 31, 2009, we had cost of revenue of $2,592,290, as compared with cost of revenue of $1,721,536 during the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $870,752, or 51%, due to the increase in revenues during the period. The economy of scale and enhanced marketing of services with higher gross margin in 2009 allowed the company to obtain less corresponding cost of services.
Gross Profit
The gross profit rose to $6,242,383, or a 128% increase for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared with the year ended December 31, 2008. The main reason for the increase of gross profit from 2008 to 2009 is due to the increased sales. Our gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2009 was 71%, compared to 61% for the year ended December 31, 2008. Our higher gross margin was primarily due to economies of scale obtained from business expansion.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses were $4,235,182 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared with $2,499,983 for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $1,735,199. The approximately 69% increase is mainly attributable to the increase in salary expenses and marketing expenses and other expenses relating to our growth in sales. The overall increase in our operating expenses was in proportion to our increase in sales.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased from nil for the year ended December 31, 2008 to $3,224 for the year ended December 31, 2009, and the interest income increased from $565 for the year ended December 31, 2008 to $3,383 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Income tax expense
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2009, increased by $202,951, or 876% to $226,116, from $23,165 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in income tax expense was due to the increase in income from operations before taxes.
Net Income
We had net income attributable to the Company in the amount of $1,766,442 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared with $6,396 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in net income was mainly attributed to our increased revenue.
Foreign currency translation gains
Our business operates primarily in Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), but we report our results in U.S. Dollars. The conversion of our accounts from RMB to U.S. Dollars results in translation adjustments. As a result of a currency translation adjustment gain, our other comprehensive income was $1,073 for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared with $2,605 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease is due to currency exchange fluctuation of Chinese RMB to US Dollars for the period.
Comprehensive Income attributable to the common stockholders
As a result of the factors described above, we had comprehensive income attributable to the common stockholders in the amount of $1,767,515 for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared with $9,001 for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At present, our principal sources of liquidity were from stockholders’ equity, generated from our operations and bank loan. As of December 31, 2009, we had a positive working capital of $920,459, as compared to a negative working capital of $1,155,419 as of December 31, 2008, and generated $1,766,442 of net income attributable to the Company and our operations have produced a positive cash flow of $2,122,343 for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $377,341 cash generated for the year ended December 31, 2008. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our existing resources, including cash generated from operations as well as the bank loan, will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirement for our current operations. However, in order to fully implement our business plan and continue our growth, we may require additional capital either from our stockholders or from outside sources.
Operating Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2009, our operations generated cash in the total amount of $2,122,343, as compared with $337,341 cash generated in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2008. This increase was mainly due to increase in our net income in 2009 compared to 2008, which was a result of expansion of sales network and increase of customer base.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $753,334 for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared with $552,686 for the year ended December 31, 2008. We have invested in building our infrastructures, including spending on purchase of equipment
Financing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2009, we have used a total amount of $38,107 as compared to $214,218 provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2008. Decrease in cash provided by financing activities is mainly due to repaying a debt of $726,434 to the stockholders though all stockholders increased their investments pro rata to increase the registered capital by $731,294 in October 2009, offset by an increase of $73,090 in short term bank loan.

From 2010 onwards, Sichuan Shesays’s income tax is assessed at the applicable tax rate of 25% on its net income.

Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements. These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes. The most significant estimates and assumptions include valuation of inventories, provisions for income taxes, allowance for doubtful accounts, and the recoverability of the long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Periodically, we review all significant estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements and record the effect of any necessary adjustments.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period included the enactment date.
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. The adoption of ASC 740-10-25 has not resulted in any material impact on the Company’s financial position or results.
The Company was incorporated in the PRC and is subject to PRC income tax which is computed according to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC. The applicable tax rates for 2009 and 2008 are 25%. Prior to 2009, income tax was calculated by net income with the applicable tax rate. In 2009, the Company elected to have its net income for income tax purpose assessed at 10% of services revenue and the election was approved by the local tax bureau, income tax was therefore calculated by 10% of services revenue with the applicable tax rate. From 2010 onwards, Sichuan Shesays’s income tax will be assessed at the applicable tax rate of 25% on its net income.
Foreign currency transactions
The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (“RMB”). Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated to the functional currency at the approximate rates of exchange on the dates of transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the approximate rates of exchange at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the asset or liability was acquired. Exchange gains or losses are recorded in the statement of operations.
The financial statements are translated into United States Dollars (“US$”) using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into US$ using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. All exchange differences are recorded within equity.
- - 39 -
No presentation is made that RMB amounts have been, or would be, converted into US$ at the above rates. Although the Chinese government regulations now allow convertibility of RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. Hence, such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB could be converted into US$ at that rate or any other rate.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions, Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-10 “Consolidation” (Topic 810), “Amendments for Certain Investment Funds”. ASU 2010-10 amends the consolidation requirements of Topic 810 resulting from the issuance of Statement 167 are deferred for a reporting entity’s interest in an entity (1) that has all the attributes of an investment company or (2) for which it is industry practice to apply measurement principles for financial reporting purposes that are consistent with those followed by investment companies. The deferral does not apply in situations in which a reporting entity has the explicit or implicit obligation to fund losses of an entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. The deferral also does not apply to interests in securitization entities, asset-backed financing entities, or entities formerly considered qualifying special purpose entities. In addition, the deferral applies to a reporting entity’s interest in an entity that is required to comply or operate in accordance with requirements similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. An entity that qualifies for the deferral will continue to be assessed under the overall guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities in Subtopic 810-10 (before the Statement 167 amendments) or other applicable consolidation guidance, such as the guidance for the consolidation of partnerships in Subtopic 810-20. The amendments in this Update also clarify that for entities that do not qualify for the deferral, related parties should be considered when evaluating each of the criteria in paragraph 810-10-55-37, as amended by Statement 167, for determining whether a decision maker or service provider fee represents a variable interest. In addition, the requirements for evaluating whether a decision maker’s or service provider’s fee is a variable interest are modified to clarify the Board’s intention that a quantitative calculation should not be the sole basis for this evaluation. ASU 2010-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.

In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-9"). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.
In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-17 Consolidations (Topic 810) Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities ("ASU 2009-17"). ASU 2009-17 amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . The amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. ASU 2009-17 also requires additional disclosures about an enterprise's involvement in variable interest entities. ASU 2009-17 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations except that additional disclosures will be made in the consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.

We will also establish a compensation committee to oversee the compensation of our named executive officers. The majority of the members of the compensation committee will be independent directors.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Nevada State Law
In the future we may become subject to Nevada’s control share law. A corporation is subject to Nevada’s control share law if it has more than 200 stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom are residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation.
The law focuses on the acquisition of a “controlling interest” which means the ownership of outstanding voting shares is sufficient, but for the control share law, to enable the acquiring person to exercise the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors: (1) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (2) one-third or more but less than a majority, or (3) a majority or more. The ability to exercise voting power may be direct or indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.
The effect of the control share law is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with that person, obtain only voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders of the corporation, approved at a special or annual meeting of stockholders. The control share law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once by the other stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to take away voting rights from the control shares of an acquiring person once those rights have been approved. If the stockholders do not grant voting rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring person, those shares do not become permanent non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell its shares to others. If the buyers of those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, their shares do not become governed by the control share law.
If control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control shares with a majority or more of the voting power, any stockholder of record, other than an acquiring person, who has not voted in favor of approval of voting rights is entitled to demand fair value for the stockholder’s shares.
Nevada’s control share law may have the effect of discouraging corporate takeovers.
In addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law, which prohibits some business combinations between Nevada corporations and “interested stockholders” for three years after the “interested stockholder” first becomes an “interested stockholder” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Nevada law, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “combination” is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation’s assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.
- 49 -
The effect of Nevada’s business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of our Company from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our Board of Directors.

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 provide us with the power to indemnify any of our directors, officers, employees and agents. The person entitled to indemnification must have conducted himself in good faith, and must reasonably believe that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must not have had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Under NRS Section 78.751 and our by-laws, advances for expenses may be made if the director or officer affirms in writing that he has met the standards for indemnification and will personally repay the expenses if it is determined that such officer or director did not meet those standards.
- 50 -
Our by-laws include an indemnification provision under which we have the power to indemnify, to the extent permitted under Nevada law, our current and former directors and officers, or any person who serves or served at our request for our benefit as a director or officer of another corporation or our representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against all expenses, liabilities and losses reasonably incurred by reason of being or having been a director, officer or representative of ours or any of our subsidiaries. We may make advances for expenses upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he/she is not entitled to be indemnified by us.
Our articles of incorporation provide a limitation of liability such that no director or officer shall be personally liable to us or any of our stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, involving any act or omission of any such director or officer, provided there was no intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law, or payment of dividends in violation of NRS Section 78.300.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of ours pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

SICHUAN SHESAYS COSMETOLOGY HOSPITAL COMPANY LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION | |
(A) | Organization | |
Sichuan Shesays Cosmetology Hospital Company Limited (the “Company”) was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on May 30, 2005 as a limited liability company. | ||
The Company is a clinic for providing professional medical beauty services, cosmetic surgery services and cosmetic dentistry services to customers in the PRC. In accordance with its business permit, the Company’s right of operation expires on May 30, 2025. | ||
(B) | FASB Launches New Accounting Standards Codification | |
In June 2009 FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) as the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification have become non-authoritative. | ||
Following the Codification, FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions (“FSP”) or Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification. | ||
GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB's Codification, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies. The Company has adopted the Codification in these financial statements by using plain English to describe FASB broad topic references. | ||
(C) | Use of estimates | |
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||
(D) | Cash and cash equivalents | |
For purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits with a bank with a maturity of less than three months. | ||
(E) | Inventories | |
Inventories represent medical materials and finished goods – merchandise and are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost represents invoices value on purchases and is being calculated on the weighted average basis. | ||
The Company provided inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by demand for these products. | ||
(F) | Property and equipment | |
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. |

SICHUAN SHESAYS COSMETOLOGY HOSPITAL COMPANY LIMITED
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED) |
(F) | Property and equipment (continued) |
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis, less estimated residual value over the assets’ estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings | 20 Years | |||
Leasehold improvements | 5 Years | |||
Medical equipment | 3 to 5 Years | |||
Motor vehicles | 5 Years | |||
Office equipment | 3 to 5 Years |
(G) | Long-lived assets | |
The Company accounts for long-lived assets under the FASB Codification Topic 360 (ASC Topic 360) “Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, when undiscounted future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover an asset’s carrying amount, the asset is written down to its fair value. The long-lived assets of the Company, which are subject to evaluation, consist primarily of property and equipment. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company has not recognized any allowances for impairment. | ||
(H) | Fair value of financial instruments | |
FASB Codification Topic 825(ASC Topic 825), "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. Fair value of financial instruments is made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values. | ||
The carrying value of other current assets and prepaid expenses, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, notes payable and related party balance approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. | ||

(K) | Income taxes | |
The Company accounts for income taxes under the FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740- 10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period included the enactment date. | ||
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. The adoption of ASC 740-10-25 has not resulted in any material impact on the Company’s financial position or results. | ||
(L) | Operating leases | |
Operating leases represent those leases under which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased assets remain with the lessors. Rental payments under operating leases are charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period of the leases. Rent for clinic spaces paid in 2009 and 2008 was $185,712 and $131,332 respectively. | ||

The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (“RMB”). Foreign currency transactions during the year are translated to the functional currency at the approximate rates of exchange on the dates of transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the approximate rates of exchange at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the time the asset or liability was acquired. Exchange gains or losses are recorded in the statement of operations. | ||
The financial statements are translated into United States Dollars (“US$”) using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into US$ using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. All exchange differences are recorded within equity. | ||
The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into US$ for the purposes of preparing the financial statements were as follows: |

(M) | Foreign currency transactions (continued) | |
The translation gain recorded for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $1,073 and $2,605 respectively. | ||
No presentation is made that RMB amounts have been, or would be, converted into US$ at the above rates. Although the Chinese government regulations now allow convertibility of RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. Hence, such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB could be converted into US$ at that rate or any other rate. | ||
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions, Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting. | ||
(N) | Other comprehensive gain | |
The foreign currency translation gain or loss resulting from translation of the financial statements expressed in RMB to US$ is reported as other comprehensive income in the statements of operations and stockholders’ equity. Other comprehensive gain for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $1,073 and $2,605 respectively. | ||

(P) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-9"). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. | ||
In January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-2 Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary- a Scope Clarification ("ASU 2010-2"). ASU 2010-2 addresses implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the Consolidation—Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810- 10) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification , originally issued as FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary. An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. ASU 2010-2 is effective for the Company starting January 3, 2010. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. | ||
In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-17 Consolidations (Topic 810) Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities ("ASU 2009-17"). ASU 2009-17 amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . The amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. ASU 2009-17 also requires additional disclosures about an enterprise's involvement in variable interest entities. ASU 2009-17 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. | ||
In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-16 Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets ("ASU 2009-16"). ASU 2009-16 amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 . The amendments in ASU 2009-16 improve financial reporting by eliminating the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred financial assets. In addition, the amendments require enhanced disclosures about the risks that a transferor continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. ASU 2009-16 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. |

(P) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued) |
In October, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 470 “Debt”, (“ASU 2009-15”), and provides guidance for accounting and reporting for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of a convertible debt issuance. At the date of issuance, a share-lending arrangement entered into on an entity’s own shares should be measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820 and recognized as an issuance cost, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Loaned shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share unless default of the share-lending arrangement occurs. The amendments also require several disclosures including a description and the terms of the arrangement and the reason for entering into the arrangement. The effective dates of the amendments are dependent upon the date the share-lending arrangement was entered into and include retrospective application for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, “Certain Arrangements That Include Software Elements, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 985, “Software”, (“ASU 2009-14”). ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-14 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”) (not part of the codification yet). SFAS 167 amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an interpretation of ARB No. 51” (FIN 46(R)) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’ s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’ s economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation” when it becomes effective. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”) (ASC Topic 810). SFAS 166 (not part of the codification yet) amends various provisions of SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125” by removing the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and removes the exception from applying FIN 46(R) to variable interest entities that are qualifying special-purpose entities; limits the circumstances in which a transferor derecognizes a portion or component of a financial asset; defines a participating interest; requires a transferor to recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer accounted for as a sale; and requires enhanced disclosure; among others. SFAS 166 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing” when it becomes effective.

NOTE 2 ORGANIZATION
SN Strategies Corp. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 18, 2002.
Perfect Support Limited (“Perfect Support”) was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on January 15, 2010 as an investment holding company. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Chengdu Boan Investment Management Co., Limited (“Chengdu Boan”), the Company is principally engaged in providing consultancy services on medical beauty services, cosmetic surgery services and cosmetic dentistry services in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). Chengdu Boan was incorporated in the PRC as a wholly-owned foreign enterprise on April 27, 2010. In accordance with the business permit, Chengdu Boan’s right of operation expires on April 27, 2040 and is renewable on expiry.
Sichuan Shesays was incorporated in the PRC on May 30, 2005 as a limited liability company. Sichuan Shesays is a clinic for providing professional medical beauty services, cosmetic surgery services and cosmetic dentistry services to customers in the PRC. In accordance with its business permit, the Company’s right of operation expires on May 30, 2025.
On April 27, 2010, Chengdu Boan entered into a series of contractual agreements with Sichuan Shesays and the stockholders of Sichuan Shesays in which Chengdu Boan assumed the management of the business activities of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries, if any, from time to time, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries agreed to pay 100% of its residual return to Chengdu Boan. Through this arrangement, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries, if any, became contractually controlled subsidiaries of Chengdu Boan. Based on these contractual arrangements, the Company considers Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries to be Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) under ASC 810 "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No.51” and Perfect Support through Chengdu Boan is the primary beneficiary of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries (See note 6). Accordingly, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries should be consolidated under ASC 810. As Perfect Support, Chengdu Boan, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries were under common control, the contractual arrangements have been accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control and the consolidated financial statements were prepared as if the reorganization occurred at the beginning of the first period presented.
On June 6, 2010, SN Strategies Corp., the Parent, China Shesays Medical Cosmetology Inc., the Merger Sub, a Nevada corporation, wholly owned by the Parent and incorporated on May 20, 2010, Perfect Support, known as the Acquired Sub, and the stockholders of the Acquired Sub, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which the Merger Sub agreed to acquire 100% of the common stocks of Acquired Sub.

Concurrent with the merger, the Merger Sub merged with and into the Parent at the effective time of the merger. The Merger Sub no longer existed, and Parent’s name was changed to the Merger Sub’s name.
For financial reporting purposes, the merger has been accounted for as a recapitalization of the Parent whereby the historical financial statements and operations of the Acquired Sub become the historical financial statements of the Company, with no adjustments to the carrying value of assets and liabilities.

In addition, the presentation for all periods includes equity transactions of the Acquired Sub as adjusted for the effects of the recapitalization.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 5 RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-10 “Consolidation” (Topic 810), “Amendments for Certain Investment Funds”. ASU 2010-10 amends the consolidation requirements of Topic 810 resulting from the issuance of Statement 167 are deferred for a reporting entity’s interest in an entity (1) that has all the attributes of an investment company or (2) for which it is industry practice to apply measurement principles for financial reporting purposes that are consistent with those followed by investment companies. The deferral does not apply in situations in which a reporting entity has the explicit or implicit obligation to fund losses of an entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. The deferral also does not apply to interests in securitization entities, asset-backed financing entities, or entities formerly considered qualifying special purpose entities. In addition, the deferral applies to a reporting entity’s interest in an entity that is required to comply or operate in accordance with requirements similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. An entity that qualifies for the deferral will continue to be assessed under the overall guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities in Subtopic 810-10 (before the Statement 167 amendments) or other applicable consolidation guidance, such as the guidance for the consolidation of partnerships in Subtopic 810-20. The amendments in this Update also clarify that for entities that do not qualify for the deferral, related parties should be considered when evaluating each of the criteria in paragraph 810-10-55-37, as amended by Statement 167, for determining whether a decision maker or service provider fee represents a variable interest. In addition, the requirements for evaluating whether a decision maker’s or service provider’s fee is a variable interest are modified to clarify the Board’s intention that a quantitative calculation should not be the sole basis for this evaluation. ASU 2010-10 is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 5 RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-9"). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.
In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-17 Consolidations (Topic 810) Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities ("ASU 2009-17"). ASU 2009-17 amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . The amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. ASU 2009-17 also requires additional disclosures about an enterprise's involvement in variable interest entities. ASU 2009-17 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations except that additional disclosures will be made in the consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position.
NOTE 6 VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The Company accounts for Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) in accordance with ASC 810. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2009-17, consolidations (Topic 810) – Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities, effective January 1, 2010, ASC 810 requires the consolidation of VIEs in which a company has both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the VIEs’ economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. The Company has applied the requirements of ASC 810 on a prospective basis from the date of adoption.
The Company assesses all newly created entities and those with which the Company becomes involved to determine whether such entities are VIEs and, if so, whether or not the Company is their primary beneficiary.
On April 27, 2010, the Company through its PRC subsidiary, Chengdu Boan entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Sichuan Shesays and the stockholders of Sichuan Shesays pursuant to which Chengdu Boan assumed the management of the business activities of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries if any, from time to time, and Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries agreed to pay 100% of its residual return to Chengdu Boan. Through this arrangement, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries, if any, are considered VIEs of the Company.
As required by ASC 810-10, the Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries which are identified as VIEs of the Company. A quality assessment begins with an understanding of the nature of the risks in the entity as well as the nature of the entity’s activities including terms of the contracts entered into by the entity, ownership interests issued by the entity and the parties involved in the design of the entity. The Company’s assessment on the involvement with Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries reveals that the Company has the absolute power to direct the most significant activities that impact the economic performance of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries. Under the accounting guidance, the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries and the results of Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries are consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2010, Sichuan Shesays and its subsidiaries had total assets of $7,964,640 and total liabilities of $4,349,474. As of December 31, 2009, Sichuan Shesays had total assets of $3,863,832 and total liabilities of $1,313,712.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 provide us with the power to indemnify any of our directors, officers, employees and agents. The person entitled to indemnification must have conducted himself in good faith, and must reasonably believe that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must not have had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Under NRS Section 78.751 and our by-laws, advances for expenses may be made if the director or officer affirms in writing that he has met the standards for indemnification and will personally repay the expenses if it is determined that such officer or director did not meet those standards.
Our by-laws include an indemnification provision under which we have the power to indemnify, to the extent permitted under Nevada law, our current and former directors and officers, or any person who serves or served at our request for our benefit as a director or officer of another corporation or our representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against all expenses, liabilities and losses reasonably incurred by reason of being or having been a director, officer or representative of ours or any of our subsidiaries. We may make advances for expenses upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he/she is not entitled to be indemnified by us.
Our articles of incorporation provide a limitation of liability such that no director or officer shall be personally liable to us or any of our stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, involving any act or omission of any such director or officer, provided there was no intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law, or payment of dividends in violation of NRS Section 78.300.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of ours pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
During the past three years, we effected the following transactions in reliance upon exemptions from registration under the Securities Act as amended:
II-1
From May to June 2007, we issued 925,000 shares of our common stock to thirteen investors for $0.08 per share for gross proceeds of $74,000. The shares were issued in a transaction which we believe satisfies the requirements of that exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated pursuant to that act by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On June 19, 2009, the holders of certain promissory notes surrendered the notes and converted all unpaid principal and unpaid accrued interest due under the notes into shares of our $.001 par value common stock as provided in the notes. As of June 19, 2009, the total unpaid principal and unpaid accrued interest due under the notes was approximately $43,272, which the holders of the notes converted into 540,898 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.08 per share. We issued the shares to the holders of the notes in a transaction which we believe satisfies the conditions for the exemption from registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Act”), which exemption is specified by the provisions of Section 4(2) of that Act.
In connection with the June 2010 Business Combination, on June 7, 2010, we issued an aggregate of 13,500,012 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Perfect Support. We received in exchange from Perfect Support 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Perfect Support, which exchange resulted in Perfect Support becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary. The issuance of such securities was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of and Regulation D and/or Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On November 12, 2010, we consummated the Private Placement for the issuance and sale of 600,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $2.00 per share. The shares were issued in accordance with the exemption from registration pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§ 230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
II-4
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:
The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
