Lotus Beauty Parlour

Our parlor is in the Hyderguda area of Attapur, right near the Janapriya Apartments. It’s a very residential neighborhood, so most of our customers are just our neighbors from the surrounding blocks. I opened Lotus because I wanted a small business that I could manage while staying close to home. The space is simple. We have a couple of chairs for hair and a small corner for facials and threading. It’s nothing fancy, just a plain room with good lighting. We don't have a big staff, usually it’s just me and one other girl. This means we get to know everyone who comes in pretty well. We hear all the neighborhood news and share stories about our families. The shop is quite small, so if three people are waiting, it feels crowded. We have a few plastic stools for people to sit on. Sometimes the water pressure isn't great, so washing long hair takes a bit more time than usual. We use the basic beauty products that you can buy at any local store. We don't try to sell you anything extra or tell you that you need a dozen treatments. People come here because it’s convenient and they know what to expect. It’s just a small, local shop trying to do a decent job for the people living nearby. We like the quiet pace of Attapur and the friendly faces we see every day.
