Sajan Family Salon

Sajan Family Salon is at Shop No-1 in Avani Complex. We are on the Naranpura Gaam Road, right across from the Sindhvay Mata Temple. You can often hear the temple bells from inside the shop, which is actually quite nice. We call it a family salon because we see everyone—men, women, and the kids who usually cry when they see the scissors. It’s a lively place. We have three chairs and they are usually full on Sunday mornings. My brother and I run the place together. We’ve been in Naranpura for a long time and we’ve seen the kids grow up and start bringing their own children here. The walls have some old posters of hairstyles that nobody really asks for anymore, but we leave them up because they’ve been there forever. The floor is white tile, which shows every single hair, so we are always sweeping. We have a small bench outside for when the shop gets too crowded. Sometimes people just sit there to chat even if they don't need a haircut. We don't have fancy air conditioning, just a couple of good ceiling fans that keep the air moving. It’s a basic shop where you get what you ask for. We try to be quick but we don't like to rush if someone is telling a good story. It’s just how we do things here.
