Opening a beauty parlour

Q: My wife wants to open a ladies’ beauty parlour where only ladies will work and only ladies will be customers. Is this permissible?

A: On account of the numerous wrongs that are associated with this profession, we consider this to be a very shameful and reprehensible occupation. For further details refer to http://muftionline.co.za/node/16761

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
