Abhijit Hair Cutting Saloon

Our shop is right on Hridaypur Station Road, so we see a lot of people heading to and from the trains. I opened Abhijit Hair Cutting Saloon a few years back because this part of Kolkata is always moving. The shop is small and usually smells like shaving cream and talcum powder. We have a few old chairs that are still comfortable enough. Most of the guys around Hridaypur come here when they need a quick shave before work. It’s not a place where you’ll find fancy lights or music, just the sound of scissors and maybe a radio playing in the corner. I grew up in this area and knew it was a good spot for a business. We get quite a bit of dust from the road, so we are always sweeping the floor. It’s hard work being on your feet all day, but it’s what we do. People stop by to chat even if they don't need a haircut right then. We try to keep the prices fair for the neighborhood folks. Sometimes the power goes out, but we just keep going anyway. It’s just a regular life here near the station. We don't have a website or anything like that. If you need us, you just walk in. We’re usually here until late at night when the last few trains come in. That’s about all there is to it.
