The shop is right here at Pani Darwaza 23. Most days, it gets pretty busy around noon, but we just keep the door open to let some air in. You’ll find a few chairs that have been here for a while, and the mirrors show their age a bit, but they work fine for what we do. It’s mostly just us getting through the pile of towels and keeping the floor swept. Sometimes the radio is on, playing whatever station comes in clear that morning. We’ve seen the neighborhood change quite a bit from our front step. People walk by all day, heading to the market or just going home. It isn’t a fancy place with big lights or anything like that. Just a spot where you can sit down for a bit while we work. The spray bottles usually have a little leak, and the combs are kept in those glass jars near the sinks. If you come by in the evening, the lighting is a bit dim because one of the bulbs keeps flickering. We haven’t gotten around to changing it yet because the ladder is stuck in the back room under some crates. It’s just how things are here at New Cut Shine. We usually have some tea around four o’clock, and sometimes a neighbor drops in just to chat about the weather or the traffic. It gets noisy outside, but inside we just focus on the hair and the shaves.
