Beauty

I just had a visit to Beauty Parlor, although I’m not very fond of this place and really don’t like spending even a penny there, then why I was there? Just to learn some tricks about threading. I have special affinity to that, and always used to dream of doing it for others.

This was a BIG PARLOR, quite BIG to what I expected. There was a receptionist, now parlor having receptionist that was too much to expect!!! And moreover you need to make appointments if you looking for any kind of make over. Till now I just managed to see the largest being 3 rooms parlor, but this was more like a bungalow I wasn’t able to even count how many rooms existed !!! So many chairs, so many new equipments!!!

We asked her (the receptionist) do you offer any courses? Now we were asking in Hindi and she was replying in English. I wonder why?

(That’s another concern to me, why people speak in English ? If they don’t understand I agree to it, but when you are able to understand why English ? And then another concern, irrespective of age who is addressing whom, it’s always Maa’m. Damn man!!! Even a person in 60’s and 70’s would call you Maa’m , I wonder where those words “beta” have gone? I’m drifting from the topic… lets continue… )

She said –
yup for skin its 15K +2K (for kit);duration 2 months
And skin +hair 33K+2K(for kit); duration : 4 months

I was like what?? I got my engineering degree which I completed in 4 years in less then that and just for these “time pass” I have to give 35 K.

Don’t you think beauty is being sold out too costly? Not their fault , afterall we are ready to buy it at any cost!!!

i was talking to a friend who runs a parlor in bangalore. Its one of the famous one's. She was telling me the equipment they use are so expensive and hence it all falls on the customers. The scissors that she uses to chop hair is like 3000/- INR...im like OMG WHAT !!!!

She has done her course in Malaysia/paris and she says it is a full time serious course ..:)

Hey good write up :) Even I am something like you. just go for a haircut and threading. If my husband were willing to trim my hair, I would have got that done at home too :) But threading is essential for me, otherwise my eyebrows tend to meet in the middle. And I absolutely hate that.

Chakoli,

By doing these courses they expect you to be rolling in money doing your own business. So little pain before gain, is it not so?

Take care

Reema said...

yes the prices are absurd. In my city , a haircut at the most famous parlor is 300 rs!!!!!! 300!!!!!! for just some snip n trim??? Too much!

Beauty is sold out too costly because somewhere someone do not remember that "Nakhra" is a natural jewellery of a woman which makes her more beautiful than artificial ones...
