Abdullah Saloon

Abdullah Saloon is situated at B11, right near Thokar Number 7 in the Shaheen Bagh and Jamia Nagar area of Delhi. You can find us pretty easily because we are right near the Al Hamd Chicken Shop, which most people around here know. It’s a small shop where we do haircuts and shaves for the local men and boys. We’ve been here in this part of Delhi for a while now and we know most of our customers by name. The shop is usually a busy place, especially in the evenings when everyone is done with work. We have a couple of chairs and some basic tools to get the work done. It’s not a fancy place with air conditioning or anything, but we keep the fans going to stay cool. There’s usually a bit of a wait on the weekends, but people don't seem to mind hanging out and talking for a bit. We try to keep things simple and honest. You come in, get your hair cut, and go about your day. I started this place because I liked the neighborhood and wanted to have a spot of my own. Being near the chicken shop means there’s always people walking by, so we see a lot of friendly faces. It’s just a regular local saloon doing regular work for the people living in Shaheen Bagh. We just try to do a good job so people come back next time they need a trim.
