Salons in Malleshwaram
8th Cross · Sampige Road · Margosa Road · 18th Cross
Shops on Sampige Road and 8th Cross are usually narrow, with little room at the front. A parlour in a unit like this depends on its windows for fresh air. Hair colour and sprays smell strong in a small room. We free a stuck sliding window and change its rollers. We add mosquito mesh, so it can stay open after dark.
A narrow room also gains from a mirror across one full wall. It makes the room feel wider and brighter. We measure between the side walls and have the mirror cut to fit.
The shopping streets of Malleshwaram fill up as the day goes on. So we bring glass to Margosa Road or 18th Cross early in the morning.
