Thailand

Mang ming is a Chinese method to remove facial hairs using toilet powder and a set of strings which are pinched together to grab the hairs and pull them out.

 

It is amongst others practiced on the sidewalks of Charoen Krung Road in Yaowaraht, Bangkok's Chinatown, and customers consist of women and to a lesser extent also men.
