Hina Beauty Parlour

Hina Beauty Parlour is right on Begumpura Main Road. Begumpura is one of those parts of Surat that is always full of life and noise. We are right in the middle of it all. The road outside is usually crowded with scooters and people walking to the market. We have a small shop, but it is ours. We have lived and worked in this area for a long time, so we know the rhythms of the street. We know when the vegetable sellers come by and when the traffic will be at its worst. Inside, we have our basic setup. It isn't anything like the big salons you see in the malls. We have our old cupboards and the chairs we’ve used for years. It feels like home to us. We don't bother with fancy advertisements or big promises. People come to us because they know us and they trust us. We take our time with each person. Sometimes the power goes out, and we just open the door wide to let the light in. That’s just life in Begumpura. We enjoy the chat as much as the work. Every evening, we tidy up, lock the door, and walk home through the same streets. It’s a simple, honest business and we are happy with that. We plan to stay on Begumpura Main Road for as long as people keep coming through the door for their usual visits.
