Mr. Aditya Kapoor, Owner of the Lotus Unisex Salon chain is also the visionary behind the inception of the company 9 years ago. He is the man behind growth and expansion of the company. Mr. Kapoor while working on the design and interiors for the salon keeps in mind "Utmost Luxury at Affordable Prices" to ensure the customers get the maximum and beyond expectations.

Design and Concept
The salon interiors are inspired from abstract and defined lines; giving the salon a very modern, plush and stylish look. The inspiration for the salon interiors comes mostly from the needs expressed by the growing awareness and more informed consumers.
While setting up the salon, Mr. Kapoor faced typical challenges that come from a very fast growing and radically changing industry. With the consumers being more informed and aware; we had to ensure that we live to the perception of ultimate in luxury yet affordable as per mindset of customers. The latest yet the most modern and luxurious had to be sourced and none other than the best – Tangy Rose was chosen. Mr. Kapoor says" While setting and designing a new salon I put myself in place of the consumer and then feel and relate with before choosing or selecting.
