Olympic Gents Beauty Parlour

The shop is located at No 107 on the HBR Main Road. We are right there in Kadugondanahalli. If you are looking for us, we are quite near the railway track. You can hear the trains passing by every now and then, which is something you just get used to. Olympic Gents Beauty Parlour is a simple place for the men in the neighborhood. We have the standard chairs and the blue combs in the jars. It’s not a place with fancy lights or expensive music. We just have the local news on the small TV sometimes. The HBR Main Road is usually full of dust and bikes. We spend a lot of time cleaning the glass because of the road. People stop in on their way home from work or before they head out for the day. Being near the tracks gives the place a specific feel, a bit industrial maybe. We’ve seen the area change a lot over the years, but the shop stays mostly the same. We know most of the guys who come in by their first names. It’s a straightforward business. We show up, we work, and we go home. The floor gets covered in hair, we sweep it up, and do it again. It’s honest work in a busy part of Bangalore. No frills, just the shop and the trains. We’ve been at this spot for a long time now and it feels like home.
