    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 195/L=109/TL=1433) (1) Husband is allowed to do so. (2) A woman is allowed to go to such beauty parlour for removing hair from her hands, legs or face where only women perform this duty. However, they are not allowed to go to a beauty parlour to sharpen the eyebrows or to do other unlawful things.
