For me, haircuts aren’t about copying what everyone’s doing - I like things a bit messy, a bit imperfect. That’s what makes it real. My goal is a style that feels good every day, not just when you walk out of the salon. ### Men’s Styles: Texture & Precision Men’s hair is all about movement right now. I’m big on textured men’s hairstyle - think modern mullets, French crops, sharp fades. Flawless fade haircut is my jam, whether you want a skin fade or a classic taper. I’ve got a soft spot for old-school looks too, like crew cuts and pompadours. ### Women’s Hair: Short & Bold Short hair is more than a look - it’s an attitude. I get really into pixie cuts and all kinds of bobs, especially that snack size bob haircut that’s super chic right now. Love doing asymmetrical styles for something a bit different. ### Beard & Curls: No Stress I’m a Beardyman myself, so precision beard shaping is kind of personal. Patchy beard? We can work on that. For my curly-haired folks, stop fighting your curls, boss. I’ll help you work with what you’ve got - curly crops for guys, layered shapes and bangs for girls. ### How I Work Every session starts with a chat. I’ll look at your face, head, and hair type before picking up the scissors. Product confusion? Arre bhai, I’ll sort you out with what you actually need, simple. No drama, just real talk. ## Highlights Browse through Dharmesh Hingorani's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/dodothebarber/haircuts-grooming/featured) - [Video: A haircut can make all the difference.

Dodo here (real name Dharmesh, but who cares), and Zing too. We started Zido because, honestly, we just wanted a place to goof around and make people happy through hair. Bikes, beers, furry friends, and hair—that’s our thing. No cheesy quotes on the wall, just real, honest work and a bit of madness. We love sharing what we know, whether it’s a new fade or just some good old salon gossip. ### My work - **Cuts, Fades, and More**: We do men's grooming, creative cuts like modern mullet haircut, pixies, bobs, all fades, and expert beard styling. - **Style is an Attitude**: Hair should look natural, not too perfect. Something a little off? That’s where the magic is. - **Small-Batch Barber Education**: We teach barbering in small groups—max 5. Deep dive into face structure hair analysis and real technique. - **The Zido Vibe**: Pet-friendly salon, always full of laughs. Good hair, good mood, and maybe a cat on your lap. - **Confused About Products?**: Aapko nahi pata kya lagana hai? (Don’t know what to use?)
