Swapna Saloon

I started this place on Badu Road because I live here and wanted to cut hair for the neighbors. We've been here a while now. The shop isn't fancy, just some chairs and mirrors. People come in from around Kolkata or just from the local market area. Sometimes it's busy on Sundays and people have to wait on the bench outside. We do haircuts and shaves, mostly for the regulars who've been coming for years. I like talking to everyone who sits in the chair. It's just a simple spot to get cleaned up. We try to keep things tidy but it's a small space. Usually, I'm here from morning until the evening, unless something comes up. Kolkata weather can be hot so we have the fan going all day. If you're walking down Badu Road, you'll see the sign. It’s nothing special, just a honest workspace. I don't really have a big staff, just a couple of us doing the work. We know most of the faces that walk through the door. It’s nice to be part of the community here in Badu. We don't do anything complicated, just standard cuts. People seem to appreciate that we are local. If you need a trim, you can just stop by and see if a chair is open. That’s pretty much how it works here at Swapna Saloon. We aren't trying to be fancy, just trying to get through the day.
