All about my EGO!

It’s incredibly suitable to write about monuments, tourist place, where to eat and shop, of a particular city. But beyond all this our lovely cities (mainly if it’s your hometown) has more than that.

A particular dish you have always loved. Favorite park/hang-out place to lighten up. An unknown barber who cuts your hair and make you look like a ‘super star’. And so on….

Opening from now, am going to focus on such impressive people/place/dish/shop in my exquisite Hyderabad, that has truly taken me by surprise.

So let’s begin with EGO MAN!

Ego Man is a beauty salon for Men. I accidently discovered this ‘all-men’ salon way back in 1995 for my acne problem!

Today when I look back after 15 years I sense a sort of rewarding relation with them for the single fact that I had never trusted any other parlor after that!

It’s fairly comfortable, rectangular size, fully air-conditioned parlor, with five seats alongside individual mirrors and wash-basins. With each client has a personal guy to attend, you certainly treated with extra arm message while your face pack is drying!

The complete clean-up process takes the most time and the whole session lasts for approximately an hour and fifteen minutes.

Bleaching: 150/-

Facial: varies from 300/- to 650/-

Haircut: varies from 100/- to 450/-

Shaving: varies from 50/- to 200/-

Besides they have a special body massage facility for regular clients.

Don’t forget to ask for the exceptional ‘Groom’ packages.

It’s worth every single penny. Try it guys.
