Neesha Gents Parlour

Our shop is right on 60 Feet Road in Mahesh Nagar, not too far from the Vijay Kunj Marriage Garden. You can usually hear the music from weddings when it's the season. It’s a busy area and we’ve been here long enough that people know where to find us. The shop has a few chairs and big mirrors that have seen better days, but they work fine for what we need. We spend most of our time standing around, waiting for the next person to walk in for a shave or a cut. The floor usually has some hair on it until we get a chance to sweep between customers. It’s a pretty standard place for men in the neighborhood to come and get tidied up. We keep a radio playing sometimes, mostly just local stations or some old songs to pass the time during the slow afternoon hours. The light comes in through the front window and hits the dust in the air. We don't have any big signs or anything, just the name on the front of the shop. On some days it gets really crowded and people have to wait on the bench outside, especially on Sundays. We just keep doing what we do, day after day. It's not a complicated business. We have our regulars who come in every two weeks. We know their names and how they like their hair done. That’s how it goes here in Jaipur.
