Menz Beauty Parlour

Menz Beauty Parlour is on Narahi Road in the Hazratganj area of Lucknow. Hazratganj is the heart of the city, so we get a lot of different people coming through. Narahi Road itself is a bit narrower and has its own charm with all the small shops and eateries. My parlour is a simple place for men to come and get their hair cut or a facial. I have two other guys who help me out during the weekends when it gets really packed. We have some old magazines on a table for people to read, but most just look at their phones while they wait. The chairs are comfortable enough, and I keep the tools in a drawer under the main mirror. We have a small sink for washing hair that leaks a tiny bit if you turn the tap too far. It’s not a big deal, we just put a rag there to catch the drips. Lucknow summers are tough, so we have a cooler that hums loudly in the corner. It makes a lot of noise but keeps the place decent enough for the customers. I’ve lived in Lucknow all my life and I like being in Hazratganj because there is always something to see out the window. It’s just a normal shop where you can get a good shave and talk about the local news with the neighbors.
