Venus Hair Cutting Salon

Venus Hair Cutting Salon is located in the Inner Market of Sector 9, at Shop No. 9. It’s on the ground floor, so it’s easy to step inside. The market here is quite nice, and we have some good neighbors. I’ve been working here for a while now. The shop has a big glass front, and I spend a lot of time cleaning the smudges off it. We have the usual black chairs and a few drawers for the scissors and spray bottles. I usually keep the newspaper on the table for people to read. It gets busy during the lunch hour when folks from the nearby offices come out. I try to work fast but I don't like to rush things. The floor is grey stone and stays cool even when it’s hot outside. Sometimes the street dogs sit by the door to catch the breeze from the fan. I don't shoo them away unless they get in the way of a customer. Sector 9 is a quiet, organized part of Chandigarh. Our shop isn't fancy, just a place for a decent haircut. I check the scissors every evening to make sure they are ready for the next day. It’s a steady routine. I like the sound of the scissors snipping away. It's a peaceful way to spend the day. Sometimes a regular brings me tea from the shop next door when they are passing by.
