Seenu Saloon Hygienic Beauty Parlour

People know us on Bharathi Salai mostly because we’ve been here for a while now. It’s right across from Ameer Mahal, so there’s always something happening outside the door. We usually open up early and get the floor swept before the first customers show up from Royapettah. The shop isn’t fancy or anything. Just some mirrors, chairs that have seen a lot of use, and our tools on the side. We keep things clean because that’s how it should be in a place like this. Sometimes it gets a bit loud with the traffic outside, but you get used to it after a few days working here. Most people just come in for a quick trim or a shave when they have some time off. We don’t have those big posters or loud music playing all day. It’s mostly just the sound of the scissors and the fan overhead. On hot days, the shade inside is a relief for anyone walking down the street. We’ve got the usual stuff like combs and spray bottles lined up. It isn't a huge space, but it works for what we do. If someone asks for a specific look, we try our hand at it. Mostly it is just regular folks living nearby who stop in. We spend a lot of time just talking about the weather or how busy the road is today. That’s how it goes around here. We just stay here doing our job until the sun goes down and we can lock up.
