Miandi haircare shop in Lhasa

"Miandi" is a kind of hair dyeing method. It is a leisure activity popular among Lhasa residents for nearly 100 years. After entering a Miandi shop, a professional will cover your hair with medicine. In the 1 or 2 hours while waiting for the medicine to take effect, you can read a magazine or listen to Indian or Nepalese music.

Miandi is quite different from ordinary hair care methods. In a Miandi shop, clients cannot have their hair cut. Instead, they can only receive hair dyeing or hair care services. At the request of clients, professionals from Nepal sometimes use a thin rope to clean clients' faces. Hair dyeing costs 70 yuan. You will not witness any obvious hair improvement if you only go to a Miandi shop once or twice. After going there 5 times, you will see the magic effects of Miandi.

Tips: Miandi originated from India. It uses the roots of a kind of plant named Henna to dye people's hair. In India and Nepal, this kind of plant is used to do tattoos (to draw pictures on hands or faces) and dye hair. Hair is usually colored black, brown, orange or red. Miandi is regarded as the safest way to dye hair and it will not harm clients' health.
