The 23 business at Alhóndiga street give support to more than 250 families. There, all the prices and market positioning of brands and products are defined; not only for the capital but for the whole country. Therefore, merchants and manufacturers call it “The Wall Street of beauty”. The services offered in the middle of the street are: eyelashes extensions and curling, eyebrows ironing, hair extensions placing, fantasy nail applications, hair dye or hair removal. The zone is also called “The Miracles Alley”, because “you come in ugly, and leave pretty.” Photo by: Christian Rodriguez @christian_foto for @Newyorkerphoto #REALISMOMAGICO #mexicocity #Mexico
