Description

The March issue of 2020. We are already a quarter into the year, and it tells us just how fast time is flying. I think it is good when time flies, as it means you are in motion and doing something, anything which is hopefully, productive. But, then ‘productive’ is a relative word. People pretend to be awake hence, feel productive, while the truth is that they are asleep. In every way. So, when you are asleep, there is no motion, only stillness. And to stagnate is to die, right?

This issue is all about women power and the number of women in the business of beauty. Over lunch, I was part of a common debate: are women successful in the beauty industry because of their inherent interest in beauty versus men have always been known to have morebusiness acumen and so many of them are in this business. There is no definite answer but, this month, we are celebrating women. Their presence, the difference they make to the lives they touch and calling it International Women’s Day. I think, every day should be celebrated as one, and women made to feel special. Our cover story is on power women who have made a mark in the B & W industry of India. They share their success stories and beliefs.

In the hair section, we meet Lisa Polini, the owner of Hype Hair Studio and winner of the International Hairdressing Award. She shares her highs and lows with us.
