What should I name my barber/indian head massage/henna tattoo business?
February 22, 2015 11:25 AM Subscribe
My friend wants a name for her new business that includes barbering, Indian head massage and henna tattooing. She liked the names "Barber on a Bike" and "The Tonsorial Artist" but these are both taken. Any further suggestions? We are in the UK.
Mastak Arts, or Studio Mastak? Mastak = head in Hindi.*

Just my two cents that, even if you can find an unused combination, the word "tonsorial" should be avoided. I think a lot of people don't know what it means, and it tends to bring to mind things like dentistry, barber-shop quartets, or a hipster hair place with attendants dressed like old-timey riverboat-casino card dealers.
