A roadside barber trims a customer's beard at an open-air stall in Taimoor Nagar, New Delhi. The barber uses an electric trimmer along the customer's jawline, then massages his face and forehead in the shade of a large tree. The customer sits in a simple wooden chair with a black cape, while a small table holds bottles, a shaving brush, bowls, and other grooming supplies. A mirror hangs against the yellowed wall behind the stall, with traffic, including an e-rickshaw passing along the road. The footage captures a traditional pavement barber setup and everyday grooming service in a Delhi neighbourhood.
