“Spending a little money will make us more confident to travel around during Tet,” a customer said. Nail shops in the city are handling 20-50 customers a day ahead of the festival, almost twice as many as usual. |
A nail job costs from VND50,000-200,000 ($2-9), depending on the type of varnish and design.
A hairdressing and makeup shop has put up paper decorations of bright yellow ochna flowers to celebrate the holiday.

Many men also think it’s time to freshen up for the New Year. In the picture is a man choosing hair dye.
