Johor beauty salon ups eyebrow threading game amid MCO
BY YISWAREE PALANSAMY

Seventy per cent of beauticians do that, but because of the strict regulations by the government, we retrained for two weeks for this current technique we employ.
Sarojini, who also provides bridal makeover services and tray decorations in Hindu weddings, said she had to refund deposits for bookings that were originally scheduled in March. Sarojini, whose salon can accommodate five customers at any one time, said bookings for facials and threading sessions for her shop has trickled in since the government allowed beauty salons to reopen this week. But it is insufficient to make up for her earlier losses.
