- Basu: An Indian facial may have fixed what U.S. medical specialists couldn't - When I called this week to cancel an appointment I’d waited months for at the University of Iowa’s dermatology clinic, the receptionist kindly reminded me that if I changed my mind, it would take months more to reschedule. But after a year of shelling out hundreds of dollars on doctors, labs and medicines to clear up the rough patches on my elbows that had gotten me nowhere, I'd come up with another approach. Actually, a beautician giving me a facial in an Indian beauty parlor had come up with it during my recent annual visit to India. Seeing my elbows, the woman dispatched a pedicurist to the drugstore next door to get me an over-the-counter ointment she said would bring signs of improvement in a week. And it did. I bring this up not because my skin problems are of much consequence. On the contrary. If a beauty parlor employee can recognize symptoms and suggest a treatment that works after two doctors, a biopsy and several medications couldn't, it suggests a larger problem with our profit-obsessed medical care system and pharmaceutical industry.
- A
well made-up dollar dream (TOI) -
Call it the beautiful route to success abroad. For a large
number of wannabe NRI brides, the way to earn some extra
moolah is to do a beauty course 'here' and set up a flourishing
business 'there'. After all, the West is (re)discovering
Indian beauty and young brides are the perfect messengers
to take these elements of Brand India and sell it to foreigners.
Not surprisingly, during the months from October to December,
our local beauticians are a busy lot. Training young starry-eyed
NRI brides in the nuances of make-up and facials. Add to
it some extra skills of massage, yoga or henna and the package
is complete. "The number of young NRI brides wanting to
train as beauticians before they fly abroad has increased
considerably," says Falguni Brahmbhatt of Shehnaz Herbal
Skin Care and Beauty Clinic.
