Sunil Hair Cutting Saloon

If you go down Maheshbatan Main Road in Krishnapur, you will find Sunil Hair Cutting Saloon on the groundfloor. We are situated near the Bharat Gas Gowdown, so there are always delivery trucks and cycles moving around the area. The shop itself is quite modest, with just the essential tools needed for a haircut. There is a small sink in the corner and a few bottles of water for dampening hair. We have some pictures of different styles on the wall, though most people just ask for the same thing they always get. The ceiling fan wobbles a bit when it's on, but it keeps the air moving on those sticky Kolkata afternoons. We try to keep the place organized, though things can get a bit messy when a few customers arrive at the same time. There is a wooden bench for waiting, and it’s usually occupied by someone checking their phone or just staring out at the road. Being located in Krishnapur, we see a lot of people who are just passing through or who live in the nearby lanes. It’s a busy spot, but inside the shop, we just focus on one person at a time. The sound of the scissors and the hum of the street outside are the main things you hear while you are sitting in the chair. It’s just a regular local hair cutting shop where we do our best to stay busy every day.
