The Taliban has ordered the closure of Beauty Salons in Afghanistan, further restricting women's rights and eliminating a source of income for many Afghan women. The decree, issued by the Taliban's Ministry of Vice and Virtue, gives salons one month to shut down their operations. This move adds to the series of restrictions imposed by the Taliban since they regained power in August 2021. Beauty salons were one of the few remaining professions available to Afghan women, and their closure leaves many uncertain about their future and livelihoods. The United Nations has called on the Taliban to immediately cease implementing this restriction.
