The Beauty Academy of Kabul background

The Beauty Academy of Kabul

In the heart of Kabul, a group of American women and Afghan expatriates come together to establish a beauty school, transforming the lives of local women by introducing them to Western beauty standards and fostering independence.

American women, some of whom fled Afghanistan in the 1980s, return to Kabul to establish a beauty school inspired by American standards. The students include women who secretly operated beauty salons during the Taliban's strict rule.
