Priyas Beauty Care

Our place is in Triplicane, located on Ovm Lane. We have units 6/1 and 6/2. It is a busy little lane, and we are quite near the Chepauk stadium area. You can usually tell when there is a cricket match happening because the whole vibe of the neighborhood changes and it gets very loud. Priyas Beauty Care is a small shop we have set up with what we could afford over the years. We have some metal shelves with local products and a few chairs for the customers to sit in. The walls are painted a simple light color, and we have some posters up. It gets a bit cramped when more than two or three people are inside at the same time, but we make it work somehow. Ladies from the nearby houses come in for their regular threading or hair oiling. We spend a lot of time chatting about our families and what is happening on the lane. The humidity in Triplicane can be very tough, so the ceiling fan is always kept on the highest setting. We try to keep the place looking neat, but with all the powders and lotions, it is a constant task for us. We have been in this spot long enough that we feel like a real part of the street. People always wave when they walk past the door. It is just a local spot.
