Female flight attendants at Turkey’s national airline have been banned from wearing red lipstick and nail polish, prompting renewed fears from secular Turks the country is becoming more Islamic.
Turkish Airlines, Europe's fourth-biggest carrier, said the ban was aimed at keeping crews 'artless and
well-groomed with makeup in pastel tones' because a natural look improved communication with passengers.
But critics say it reflects the creeping influence of the government's Islamic values.
The new rule will be imposed just one year after the airline lifted its ban on headscarves among its staff.
Share your thoughts...thanks!
