Darshan Beauty Parlour

If you know the Navrangpura area, you probably know the Shyam Gokul Building. We are up on the first floor there. It’s a bit of a walk up the stairs but it’s not too bad for most. Being near Vijay Cross Road means there is always something going on outside. You can see the traffic moving from the window if you’re waiting for your turn. We started this place because we wanted something local for the people living around here. It isn’t some big corporate chain or anything. It’s just a small parlour where we handle the usual stuff. Sometimes the power goes out in the summer and we have to wait a bit for the generator, but that is just how things are in Ahmedabad sometimes. We try to keep things organized but on a busy Tuesday, there might be magazines scattered around and a few cups of tea sitting on the counter. We’ve known some of our customers since they were kids. Now they bring their own children in. It makes the day go by faster when you have someone to talk to while you work. Navrangpura has changed a lot over the years, with new shops opening and closing, but we’ve stayed right here in the same spot. We don’t have a big sign or flashy lights, just the name on the door. It’s a simple setup for simple work that we do every day.
