Xpress Hair Cut

If you're wandering around New Marine Lines or near Churchgate, you might have walked right past Xpress Hair Cut. We are tucked into Shop Number 5 on the ground floor of Maker Bhavan 3. It's a busy part of Mumbai, right near the Balwas Hotel and that HDFC ATM that everyone uses. Being on the ground floor makes it easy to just step inside without having to deal with elevators or too many stairs. The space isn't huge, but we make it work. We've got our stations set up and there's usually some talk going on about the weather or local news. It’s the kind of place where you don't need an appointment, you just show up and wait your turn. The area 400020 is always moving, so we try to keep our pace up to match. Sometimes the noise from the street bleeds in, but that's just life in this part of town. We keep our combs and scissors ready. It’s a practical setup. Nothing is overly shiny or new, but everything works the way it should. We see all sorts of people coming through, from office workers in the building to folks just passing through from the station. We’ve been here long enough that the nearby shopkeepers are all friends. It's a simple operation, really. Just a barber shop doing what barber shops do every day. Nothing more, nothing less.
