Starting with a small beauty parlour in the veranda of her home, set up with the help of her devoted husband and daughter to provide natural beauty treatments and remedies to generations of women unhappy with their hair and skin, her company, Shahnaz Herbals, today employs 1800 people, with exports to sixty countries and a range of over 250 high-selling products. In this warm and affectionate biography, shot through with vividly remembered anecdotes of her feisty mother's early years of struggle and the close-knit family life they all shared, her daughter, Nelofar Currimbhoy, provides a fascinating insight into the personal and professional life of this remarkable woman.
