There are reasons to love living in karachi. I mean, where else can you get a haircut at midnight?? This is the perfect place to be when your addicted to doing everything last minute.

    Was it that much important?? I’ve travelled a lot and I found most of the big cities never sleep and you can get hair (and everything) cut at any time of the day/night whatever!

    Well… I agree, one can avail a lot of eleventh-hour-emergency services here in Karachi.
    I recall an instance where i had a white cotton shirt pressed and startched at Hrs 0230 PST. But I must confess that I had to drive in the dimly lit, cramped and battered streets of Lines Area to find such an option !!!… not a very safe activity I must add (Not Recommended).

    I think Karachi is the best city in Pakistan,in terms of night life.Be it food,haircut,transport,photostat and God knows what else.
    By the way I was thinking to get a haircut at 11:30 pm,but then I thought I get it done tommorrow.

    Haseeeb: I had a meeting to attend in Dubai the next morning, and the hair looked awful

    MB: you never know you might need this info someday, and you will be thanking me

    Mansoor maybe Karimabad or FB ARea water pump.Normally shops are opened at FB area till 1-2 AM.

    these days many pan walay also providing facility of photostat :-)
