The town takes ₹100 to ₹150 for a plain blade shave and ₹180 to ₹250 for the hot-towel sitting with brush lather and alum. The men's salons that have opened since the Expressway went through ask ₹350 to ₹700. Mubarakpur and Nizamabad shops sit at the lower end of the first two figures.
A great many men from this district work in the Gulf and come home on leave, and a proper shave is part of arriving and part of going back out. Shops near the bus stand and the junction see both ends of that. The weeks around Eid and the winter weddings are the heaviest of the year.
The weaving lanes run late and so do the barbers in them, and the trade there is steady rather than seasonal. A weaver who has been at the loom since morning usually takes the champi with the shave, and the two together still come inside ₹250. The chairs are narrow and the rooms are small; neither has anything to do with the work.
Nobody can promise that, and the ones who claim it are the ones to walk away from. A blade taken across the grain gets you closer and asks more of the skin, while with the grain only is gentler and a shade less close. Tell him which of those trade-offs you want before he starts.
From April the shops swap the hot towel for a warm one and lean on the cold towel at the finish instead, and plenty of men simply take the plain ₹100 to ₹150 shave through that stretch. Sweat landing on skin the blade has just gone over stings for a good while, which is why the loom sheds empty into the shops before the heat builds. Go early in the day or go after eight at night.
