Mangesh Parlour

Mangesh Parlour sits on Narsala Road, right near the Dighori Naka area in Nagpur. It’s a spot many people pass by when they are heading toward Bank Colony. The shop isn't very large, but it’s enough for what we do every day. We usually have the door open to let some air in, though the dust from the road can be a bit much sometimes. It’s a local place where the neighbors stop by. You see the same faces every couple of weeks. We focus on the basic stuff like hair trims and beard grooming. The chairs have seen a lot of use over the years. We keep our tools on the small counters and try to stay busy. Being near the Naka means there is always some noise from the scooters and trucks passing by. It’s just how it is in this part of Nagpur. We don’t have any fancy lights or music, just the radio sometimes or whatever is on the news. People come in and tell us about their day or complain about the traffic. It’s a slow pace inside compared to the street outside. We just take one customer at a time and do the job. It’s a straightforward business. Most of the guys around here have been coming to us since we opened up on this road. We just try to keep things simple for everyone who walks through the door and needs a quick trim before work.
