Arju Hair Dreser

Arju Hair Dreser is on the Main Road in Jhinjhak, Kanpur. We are right opposite the Hanuman Mandir, which makes it a very easy place to find if you are passing through. The shop is a simple room with the basic stuff needed for hair cutting. We have been cutting hair here for a long time now. It’s the kind of place where you can just walk in and wait your turn. We don't really do appointments or anything like that. Most of our customers are locals who stop by while they are out doing their shopping or after visiting the temple. The shop stays quite cool in the summer because of the high ceiling, even though we only have a couple of fans. We keep the scissors and combs in a tray and there’s always a bottle of water ready for spraying. It’s not a fancy salon like the ones you see in the big cities, but it works for the people in Jhinjhak. Sometimes the cows wander by the front door on the main road, and there’s always the sound of bells from the temple across the street. We do a lot of kids' haircuts too, especially when school is about to start. It is just a routine day for us, opening the shutters in the morning and sweeping out the shop at night. We just provide a place for a basic haircut and shave.
