Anima Saloon

Anima Saloon is a small local shop located in Thevara, right here in Ernakulam. We’ve been situated in this part of town for quite some time now, serving the people who live and work nearby. The shop is quite modest, with just the essential tools we need to do our work every day. We don’t have any flashy signs or expensive furniture, just a couple of comfortable chairs and some good scissors. The climate in Ernakulam can be quite humid, so we always have the windows open or the fan on to keep the air moving while we work. It’s a simple routine of opening up in the morning, putting out the mats, and waiting for the first customer. We get a mix of young students and older men who have lived in Thevara their whole lives. It’s nice to hear the local news while we’re cutting hair. We don't have a big team, just a few of us making sure everything is kept tidy. Sometimes the shop feels a bit small when everyone comes in at once, but we manage. We don’t really go in for any of that modern marketing stuff. People know where we are, and they know what to expect when they come in. It’s just a honest, local business where we focus on the task at hand. We finish up late in the evening and get ready to do it all again tomorrow.
