For a well-groomed baby
charukesi July 8th, 2007
Mumbai Mirror carried this brief piece yesterday under ‘Fashion’ - South Mumbai salon opens exclusively for kids (will post link when I find it). Starting with - kids really have it good these days, the article goes on to describe Tears to Cheers, a salon launched in Mumbai to cater to the beauty and grooming needs of children from age 1 to 16. It is never too early to begin the grooming process, I understand. But a one year old in a beauty salon? Can you imagine a one year old going in bawling and walking out all smiles, utterly satisfied with the shape of her eyebrows?
Among the services offered, besides hair-cuts, are manicures, pedicures, shampoo, blow dry, oil massage and basic hair-setting. it’s good to be little right now. This sounds to me the 2.0 version of ‘go out and play dear (and let me take a break while you are at it)’
Does anyone else immediately remember the Friends episode in which Rachel’s sister baby-sits? And her chosen career path - being a baby-stylist… And while on this, does anyone else know that wikipedia has a page devoted to every single episode of Friends with detailed plot description and comments? Wikipedia never ceases to surprise - man, this is going to be one long day.
Hi Charu
I enjoyed reading your blog work….creatice…hmmm. Keep up the good work. Nupur
I meant Creative….
i suppose it’s the parents who walk out happy from that saloon. good one, though.
Stretching things a bit too much - parlours for children!
And Wikipedia-well, that’s an instance of how much involved people can get!

Nupur, thanks!
nandhu, oh yes, that is why they are willing to pay the price. I don’t think a 1 year old would know - or care much!
Sathej, true - wikipedia amazes me most of the times…
