D. K. Mens Parlour

D. K. Mens Parlour is situated on Kanpur Road in the Aashiyana area. We are in Sector-H of the L.D.A. Colony in Lucknow. Most people know where we are because we are right near the Baiman Laddu shop. It’s a very busy part of the street. We mostly handle men's grooming like haircuts, shaves, and the occasional face pack if a guy has a wedding to attend. The shop isn't very large, but there is enough room for a few people to sit and wait their turn. We have a small television in the corner that is usually tuned to a news channel or a cricket match. It helps keep the conversation going between us and the customers. I have lived in Lucknow my whole life, so I know most of the regulars by their names. We don’t use any of that fancy new equipment, just good shears and straight razors. Sometimes the electricity goes out in the afternoon and we have to use hand fans, but that’s just how things are around here. We keep the shop open almost every day. People often stop by after they finish their shopping nearby. It is a decent place to work and spend the day. We don't promise anything special, just a clean shave and a trim so you look decent for your day. The floor gets covered in hair quickly, so I keep a broom ready all the time.
