Shahnaz was married while she was a teenager and also became a mother soon. Remembering the time she says, “When she turned 16, my daughter was a month old. She was like a little toy doll to me and then, as she grew older, we became best friends too. She attended junior school and I enrolled in senior school. We shared everything.”
But she always knew she was not going to be a housewife only, all her life. She fought against all the odds and ultimately became a brand in herself. She is known as the “Queen of Herbal beauty Care” and was awarded Padma shri by the Government of india in 2006. She is the most prominent businesswoman in india, who has her business running over 138 countries, which has around 600 franchises and associated clinics across the world.
As it is rightly said, only dead fish goes with the flow, Shanaz never let the challenges overcome her aspirations. She studied beauty even after her marriage, managing all the task of a wife, mother, and daughter-in-law. When she was 27, she shifted to Tehran with her husband. She slogged and worked extremely hard to get a job as a beauty Editor of iran Tribune. It is said that she would write on every topic one could think of and managed to give 10,000 words a week, which was far more than the expectation.
