About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the early morning fog of a typical Saturday in San Francisco, a delivery driver pulled up to HairJunkie salon. The streets were quiet, but inside, something strange was brewing. The door opened with a creak, and a familiar voice called out: ‘Hey, delivery guy! Finally here!’ A regular customer, half-asleep, waved from behind the curtain. Inside, amidst the usual chaos of hairspray and clippers, someone had accidentally left the coffee pot on all night. The room filled with the most delightfully bitter aroma as the driver grinned sheepishly and said, “Guess I’m not the only one who couldn’t sleep.”

2. In the dimly lit hallway of HairJunkie salon, an elderly gentleman muttered under his breath, ‘I thought I told you never to use that on me again!’ Suddenly, a young stylist poked her head around the corner and chirped, 'Oh no, Mr. Jenkins? This is just a new blend of your favorite product!' The old man growled, 'Child, I've been coming here for decades—trust me when I say, it’s NOT my favorite!' And everyone in the salon burst out laughing.

3. In the late afternoon sunshine of a quiet Sunday, a young woman sat outside HairJunkie salon, sipping her latte and admiring the colorful posters on the wall. Suddenly, she noticed something peculiar—every time someone entered or left the salon, they seemed to leave behind a tiny lock of hair. Curious, she followed one customer—a delivery driver—to his bike, where he carefully tied the strand into his handlebar basket. ‘HairJunkie,’ he grinned, “it’s their little secret!’ She laughed, realizing it was just another quirky local custom.

4. At midnight, when HairJunkie’s neon sign flickered like a secret signal, a mysterious figure would appear in the parking lot. They never spoke, just left behind tiny locks of hair in different colors—each one matching the day’s weather. One night, an enthusiastic delivery driver found a lock of bright pink hair outside. Thinking it was a prank, he posted a photo on social media. The next morning, HairJunkie had a new sign: ‘Pink Days Appreciated Here.’
