Review of My Muslim Hairdresser


A beauty shop and a place of worship have a lot in common - usually one comes out of both of these places feeling like a new person. Shana Sheehy introduces listeners to her Muslim hairdresser who tells about her conversion to the Muslim faith, difficulties encountered, and how she handled them. Listeners will hear the sounds of the beauty shop in the background: the snipping of the scissors, the running of the water. They will feel like they are sitting in the chair next to these two women, eavesdropping. I would like to hear it in a newsmagazine setting - morning or afternoon. Interesting take.
