Pandav Hair Dressers

At Survey No 10 in Ganesh Nagar, you'll find Pandav Hair Dressers. We are right on Yerawada Road, close to the Ganesh Nagar Chowk. It’s a spot that’s easy to find if you’re from this part of Pune. The shop has been here for a long time, and the walls have seen many people come and go. I started working here when I was much younger, and now I’m the one running things. We do basic haircuts and shaves for the men in the neighborhood. It’s a very local vibe, with the same people coming in every month. I don’t use any fancy apps for booking; people just walk in and wait their turn on the bench. Sometimes there’s a bit of a wait, but we have some old newspapers to read. The mirrors are a bit spotted and the chairs are worn, but they are solid and keep people comfortable. I enjoy the rhythm of the work, the sound of the scissors and the clippers. We get a lot of workers from the nearby shops who come in for a quick trim before they go home. It’s a noisy street outside with all the rickshaws and bikes, but we just keep doing our work. I don't have a mission statement or anything like that. I just want to give a decent haircut so people look presentable. It’s a simple life in Yerawada, and we are happy to be a part of this community for so many years now and in the future.
