Colours Beauty Salon

Colours Beauty Salon is on Jwala Devi Road in Gandhi Nagar, Kanpur. We are quite close to Meera Fancy Store and right across from the Lords Coaching center. Because of the coaching, there are always students walking by, talking and laughing. The shop is a bit small, but we’ve managed to fit everything we need inside. It’s mostly women from the surrounding houses who come to see us. They come for threading, or maybe to get their hair colored before a party. We have a lot of different bottles and jars on the shelves, and the smell of rose water and hair spray is always in the air. I try to make the place feel comfortable, even if it’s not very big. There’s a curtain we use for privacy when needed. Sometimes the neighbor’s cat wanders in and we have to shoo it out. The fans overhead wobbles a little bit, but it keeps the air moving. We hear all the news about who is getting married or who moved away. It’s a nice community feeling here on Jwala Devi Road. I keep a stack of fashion magazines that are a few months old, but people still like looking at them. It’s just a humble little beauty shop where we work hard and try to stay busy every day.
