Men invade beauty salons sparking modern vanity trend
Ruth Millett notes men increasingly visit beauty salons once seen as strictly feminine venues. Cities like New York and Hollywood now host male only salons while many men in others use women’s shops before dawn or after dark.

Men may feel drab beside their wives, prompting a shift to dye, permanents, and grooming once reserved for women. Millett suggests women should welcome men instead of them sneaking in.
