Shahnaz Husain, the pioneer and leader of herbal care in India, has achieved
unprecedented international acclaim for her practical application of Ayurveda. With a
burning desire to recapture an ancient heritage, Shahnaz Husain has taken India's
Ayurvedic tradition to every corner of the globe.
After training for 10 years in cosmetic therapy and cosmetic chemistry, at leading
institutions of the West, like Helena Rubinstein, Arnould Taylor, Swarzkopf, Christine
Valmy, Lancome and Lean of Copenhagen, Shahnaz returned to her roots and studied
Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of herbal healing. She set up her herbal clinic in her
own home, in a very small way, rejecting the existing salon treatment methods and
devised her own herbal treatments. She introduced a totally new concept of "care and
cure". She also began to formulate her own Ayurvedic products. This was the beginning
of the legendary Shahnaz Herbal and other ranges. In fact she has become known for her
specialized clinical treatments and therapeutic products for specific problems like acne,
pigmentation, scars and blemishes, skin-sensitivity, dandruff, hair loss and alopecia.
Today, Shahnaz Husain heads a chain of over 400 franchise salons in India and abroad,
with outlets in prestigious stores and locations all over the world. Her franchise-based
enterprise has helped in the worldwide extension of the Shahnaz Herbal clinics,
popularising her formidable range of nearly 350 products.
Shahnaz has received several national and international awards, including the World's
Greatest Woman Entrepreneur Award from Success Group of the U.S.A. She is the first
woman to be so honoured, in the 107-year history of the Success awards. Among her
other awards are the Arch of Europe Gold Star Award for Quality, the Golden America
Award and the Indian Government Awards for Export Excellence. She has recently been
honoured with two prestigious international awards for Quality Excellence and
Outstanding Woman Entrepreneur 2002, by Global Quality Management, in London.
Shahnaz Husain is also the pioneer of vocational training in cosmetology in India,
having started her professional schools at a time when only apprenticeship training was
available.
Shahnaz has never been one to rest on her laurels. She has always looked ahead, towards
newer challenges, incorporating the latest techniques and introducing unique
innovations. Her natural instincts and foresight have always led her to the next frontier,
with her finger on the pulse of international demands. Hers is the story of the human
spirit that transcends geographical boundaries and encompasses the entire world. It is a
story that is an inspiration to others to follow their dreams with faith and courage.
Indeed, as head of the largest herbal clinic-chain of its kind in the world, Shahnaz
Husain has become a legend in her own lifetime.
The Shahnaz Husain group receives a dramatic amount of international and national press coverage.
