Hair N Scissors

Hair N Scissors is located at 269/2 Bangur Avenue, right in Block-A. We are easy to find because we are directly opposite the 227 bus stand. It is a busy spot in Kolkata 700055. I opened this shop because I saw there were always people waiting for the bus. I thought they might want a haircut while they waited. It turns out I was right. We get a lot of people who just drop in because they are passing by. The shop is small but we keep it as neat as we can. There are three chairs and a small bench for waiting. I usually have a few magazines on the bench, but they are mostly old ones. The air inside smells like talcum powder and aftershave. It’s a familiar smell. Bangur Avenue is a nice neighborhood. The people are friendly. We have some regulars who have been coming since the first day we opened. We don't do anything complicated. Just scissors and combs. No fancy machines or chemicals. I like it that way. It’s simpler. We work long hours, especially on Saturdays. Sometimes we don't get to eat lunch until late in the afternoon. But that is just part of running a small business. We are just a local shop doing a job for the people here. Every night we lock up and walk home through the quiet streets.
