Classic Mens Parlour

We’re located in the Siddhivinayak Tower, specifically Shop No 5. This is on Bibvewadi Road, right near Mahavir Electronics. It’s a busy part of Pune, and there’s always something going on outside the shop windows. I chose the name Classic Mens Parlour because I like things to be straightforward. The shop isn't very big, but we’ve managed to fit in three good chairs. We get a mix of people, from guys working at the nearby shops to residents from the towers. The lighting inside is a bit bright, but it helps me see what I’m doing when I’m working on a tricky fade. I usually keep a stack of newspapers on the table for people to read while they wait. Sometimes the wait can be twenty minutes on a Saturday morning, but that’s just part of it. I spend a lot of time cleaning the combs and checking the razors. It’s not a glamorous job, but I’ve been doing it for years and I know the rhythm of it. The traffic on Bibvewadi Road can be loud, but once you’re inside the shop, it’s mostly just the sound of the clippers and a bit of chatter. We don't do any fancy treatments, just the basics that most men need. It’s an honest living and I’m glad to have a spot in this building. People know they can just walk in and we’ll get to them whenever we have an open chair.
