Smart Gents Parlour

Our shop is in the Ugal Market area on Station Road here in Bakhtiarpur. We are quite close to the Dakbanglow, which is a landmark most people in town know. Since we are on Station Road, we get a lot of people who are coming from the railway station or heading towards it. The morning time is always the busiest because everyone wants to look sharp before they catch their train. It is a small shop with just the basic things you need for a haircut. We have some wooden cabinets where we keep the scissors, combs, and creams. The floor is made of simple stone and we sweep it out every hour. There is a small radio that we keep on for some music while we work. It is a loud neighborhood with the trains and the market sellers shouting, but it feels like home to us. We don't have any fancy decorations on the walls, just a calendar and maybe a picture of a deity. People come in for a quick trim or a shave and they don't expect anything fancy. We have been in Ugal Market for a long time and we know almost everyone who walks past our door. It is a practical place for the men of Bakhtiarpur to come and get their grooming done. We just keep our heads down and do the work as best as we can every day.
