Rajashree Beauty Parlour

I run this little parlour out of Motivilla in Fatima Nagar. It’s a nice area and quite easy to find if you know where the Wanwadi side starts. I’ve lived in Pune for a long time and decided to open this place to help out the local ladies. The room isn't very big but I have a comfortable chair and a table for all my threads and creams. The walls have a few posters of different hairstyles that are probably out of fashion now. I use a small heater for the wax and it takes a while to get hot in the mornings. Often my neighbors will drop by just to chat even if they don't need their eyebrows done. We drink tea and talk about the kids or the price of vegetables. The curtains are a floral pattern that I picked out years ago. They keep the sun out during the hot hours. It gets a bit messy with hair clips and cotton balls everywhere but I try to tidy up before I go home at night. Sometimes the water pressure in the building is low so washing hair takes a bit longer than usual. I don't have a big sign outside just a small one near the gate. People mostly find me by asking around the neighborhood. It keeps me busy enough and I like the company of the women who visit me here.
