Choice Mens Parlour

Choice Mens Parlour is located in Shivshankar Colony, right near Tanaji Chowk here in Aurangabad. It is a pretty straightforward place. We are right in the middle of the colony, so most of our customers are just the guys who live on the nearby streets. I have been here for a while, and the shop has become a bit of a hangout spot for the local men. We have a couple of chairs that have seen better days, but they are still sturdy enough. The walls are decorated with some old posters of different hair styles that nobody ever really asks for, but they have been there so long it would feel empty without them. Being in 431001, we get the heat in the summer, so the ceiling fan is always on its highest setting. I spend my time mostly doing basic cuts and shaves. I don't go in for all those new-age styles you see in the city center. People here just want to look neat and tidy. I usually have the radio playing some local music softly in the corner. It is a small business, and it is just about making enough to keep things going. I know everyone’s name and whose son is doing well in school. That’s the nice thing about being in a place like Shivshankar Colony. It is more about the community than just cutting hair. We just stay open until late evening and then head home to have dinner with our own families.
