About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most salons are quiet, someone began leaving tiny bouquets of blue carnations outside Blue Lion Salon Studios. No one knew who did it or why. One morning, a delivery driver found a note attached to his package: ‘Please leave this rose for our anonymous admirer.’ From then on, every delivery brought a surprise flower. The salon started joking that maybe the Blue Lion was a secret lover, until finally a neighbor confessed—she just wanted them to relax and feel special. Now, customers arrive expecting their weekly floral surprise.
2. One morning, while drying her hair after a routine visit, Marge noticed something strange on the salon’s windowsill. ‘What in the world is this?’ she muttered, picking up a small handwritten note attached to an unusual gift—an old-fashioned barbershop pole wrapped around with blue ribbons. Curious, Marge unraveled the ribbon and found inside a tiny bottle of perfume and another note reading: 'For your special day, from someone who appreciates your style!' Turns out it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster leaving little tokens for beauticians they admired. The Blue Lion Salon now keeps those colorful poles as part of their charm.'
3. At closing time one night, a delivery driver passing by swore he heard faint laughter coming from inside Blue Lion Salon Studios. Curious, he slowed down and peered through the window. Inside, the lights were off, but he could make out silhouettes of stylists working on invisible clients. Just as he was about to drive away, someone whispered ‘Thank you!’ in perfect English. The delivery guy turned around—only to see an empty parking lot. Shaking his head with a smile, he muttered, ‘Must be those late-night TV commercials again.’
4. In the late afternoon, when the Blue Lion Salon Studios was emptying out for the day, a curious poodle named Max would often saunter in through the open door. His owner never came with him, but every time, Max would sniff around the chairs and mirrors before stopping abruptly near the back counter. That’s where, each time, he’d discover a small, handwritten note tucked under the cash register. One day, Max found not just one, but two notes! Excitedly, he ran to show them to his owner—who wasn’t there. Turns out, it was just an overzealous beautician leaving messages for herself about special treatments. Max, however, thought it was a secret club membership card and proudly carried them home, showing everyone on the block.
