Rare/ Afghan women in protest against the closure of beauty salons

Women in Afghanistan have held a protest against the Taliban's decision to close women's beauty salons.

Women chanted "work, bread and justice" as they gathered in the capital Kabul.

Women's rights have been increasingly restricted since Taliban rulers returned to power in 2021.

The Taliban have given businesses a month from July 2 to close thousands of beauty salons across the country.

They said the practice of plucking eyebrows was against Islamic values ??and parents were spending money on beauty parlors when couples get married.

The decision further limits accessible spaces for Afghan women, who are already barred from entering classrooms, gyms and parks.

Recently, the Taliban also banned them from working for the United Nations.
The closure of all beauty salons will lead to the loss of 60,000 jobs, Afghanistan's chamber of commerce said.
