Female members of parliament in Uganda are requesting the establishment of an on-site salon within the parliament premises to enhance their participation.
While a gym was recently introduced in the parliament, female MPs have expressed concerns that vigorous exercise leaves their hair unkempt, discouraging many from utilizing the facility.

State Minister for Water and Environment, Beatrice Anywar, stated on Thursday that having a beauty parlor would cater for the grooming needs of female MPs before parliamentary sessions, as reported by local media.
Ms Anywar said: “My hair and nails and whatever are part of the woman”.

“What I am really saying is that we ladies can come early, spend more time in the salon and then the house,” she said.
