A place for men to get their beauty treatments and not 'feel embarrassed'

Shaun Fanaeian is opening Canberra's first dedicated men's barber and spa because he says a lot of guys are too embarrassed to go to a traditional beauty salon.

"I've noticed, talking to my clients, a lot of times they want to get their nails done but they walk into a nail salon and people stare at them, they don't feel comfortable. They do really want to look after themselves but there's nothing out there," he said.

"I was talking to a friend, she was in Woden, getting her nails done, and this guy walked in to get his eyebrows done and and he was very embarrassed and she felt embarrassed for him, as well, being in front of people, getting his eyebrows done."
