An Afghan beautician removes a poster in a beauty salon in Kabul, Afghanistan on July 24, 2023. The Taliban administration say they respect women's rights in line with their interpretation of Islamic law and Afghan culture. The ban on salons, released on July 4 by the morality ministry, said it was based on an order from the supreme spiritual leader. Similar orders have led to the closure of high schools and universities to women and stopped many Afghan female aid staff from work, moves foreign officials say are hampering any steps towards the formal recognition of the Taliban administration.
