Pramanik Saloon

This shop is located in Gouranga Nagar, right by Baguihati. It is tucked away a little bit but people find us easily enough since we are near the VIP Road area. My father used to run a place similar to this and now we carry it on. It is just a normal saloon for the local people. We have the usual tools you would expect, like some combs, clippers, and the plastic spray bottles. The chairs are old but they are comfortable enough for a quick sit. We see a lot of office goers and school kids from around the block. During the puja season, it gets extremely hectic in here. Everyone wants to look tidy for the festivals. We do not have any air conditioning, just the ceiling fans that hum all through the day. It gets a bit dusty inside because of all the traffic moving on VIP Road, so we are always wiping down the counters and the mirrors. We use standard soaps and shaving creams. No fancy scents or expensive products here. People come to us because they know us personally. We have seen Baguihati grow so much over the years with new buildings going up everywhere. But the shop stays pretty much the same as it was. We have a simple calendar on the wall and a small hand mirror to show the back of the head. If you are around Gouranga Nagar, you have probably passed us many times.
