Sunrise Gents Parlour

Sunrise Gents Parlour is tucked away in the Ansal City Centre on Osama Talha Road. We are at Ugf 8, which is on the upper ground floor. Being right across from the Family Court in Hazratganj means we see a lot of people in suits. Lawyers and clerks come in when they have a break between hearings. They are usually in a rush, wanting a quick shave or a side trim. The shop has that typical Lucknow feel, a bit old-fashioned but functional. We have the big leather chairs that lean back. They are quite old now, but they are comfortable. We keep the news running on a small TV in the corner, though most people just look at their phones. Hazratganj is always moving, but inside the shop, it feels a bit slower. We have the usual smells of aftershave and talcum powder hanging in the air. We don't do anything very modern, just the classic cuts that people in this area prefer. The light in the City Centre is a bit dim, so we have several tube lights that hum throughout the day. We've been here long enough that we don't need to look at the clock to know when the court is letting out. It's a steady life, cutting hair and listening to the city outside. We keep our tools organized on the small counter and wait for the next person to walk in.
