What is Indian Barber Radio?
Indian Barber Radio is an immersive online Indian barber shop where you can enter a virtual salon, ask the barber to play a song, and listen to a curated playlist.

Songs that fit the nostalgic atmosphere of Indian neighbourhood barber shops — familiar Hindi songs from the 90s and 2000s and other tracks associated with that era and culture.
Where does the music come from?

Yes. The playlist is connected to a configurable YouTube playlist, so the songs can be updated without rebuilding the entire experience.
Is this a real barber shop?
No. It’s an interactive digital recreation inspired by the feeling and atmosphere of Indian neighbourhood barber shops.
