It seams most things in India are done on the streets.
Although they’re not quite as interesting as India’s famous street dentists, the street barbers are one of the country’s trade-marks. Sure the street is not the cleanest place to get a shave or a haircut but in a country where most can’t afford to go to fancy salons, they are a necessary evil.
When it gets to street gynecology someone will start a website: Gurkas Gone Wild, maybe? Or simply Poorna.com (that’s a common female name in India)
cutting your hair in the streets is pretty common still in parts of china.
