BEAUTY QUEENS OF BISHAN - 1 - Haryana Vintage - Penguin Books 2024 - 354
In Bishan, the busiest suburb of Singapore, thirteen small beauty parlours coexist quietly, offering haircuts, bikini waxes and facials at no-nonsense prices. All that changes when a swanky new salon opens. D’Asthetique (Beauty Is Skin Deep) is run by April Chua, the stylist to the stars.
April’s plan for Bishan includes controlling her competitors through a new society, NAILSO (Neighbourhood Alliance of Independent Lifestyle Service Operators). The only person who dares to protest is chubby Gurpreet Kaur, owner of Monty Beauty Spa (Beauty from Within, Fourth Wax Free).
Both have clients in the upcoming Grand Glam Singapore beauty contest. Will April’s shoo-in Candy Kang prove yet again why she is Singapore’s sweetheart? Or will Gurpreet’s client, Tara Chopra, prove a star on stage as well as in court?
The winner will determine who will lead NAILSO; the loser will never be able to show her facials again. Can there only be one beauty queen of Bishan?
