Perfect Hair @ Nina's

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Nina’s Perfect Hair salon, customers often noticed an unusual phenomenon: whenever a certain elderly gentleman entered, his little poodle would start dancing on its hind legs. No one knew why—maybe it recognized him as the best tipper? One day, when the owner Nina was busy cutting someone’s hair, she heard excited barking from outside. Running out, she saw that the dancing poodle had finally taught itself to speak—and was ordering a takeaway for its master! Turned out, the old gentleman always forgot to bring cash with him.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Nina’s Perfect Hair salon and noticed something odd. As he unloaded boxes from his truck, he kept hearing faint whispers coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw Nina whispering intently into her mirror. ‘Just one more inch on the left,’ she said, then turned around with a smile. ‘Morning, honey!’ The delivery driver blinked—Nina had no reflection in the mirror. ‘Never mind,’ she added casually, ‘just checking my angles.’ He walked away, shaking his head, thinking maybe Nina was just really good at haircuts after all.

3. In Nina’s Perfect Hair salon, every Tuesday around noon, a faint but unmistakable whiff of freshly baked cookies wafts through the air. Regulars joke that it must be Nina testing new scents for her next line of shampoos. One day, an elderly gentleman walked in and asked Nina if she could make him look like his favorite childhood doll. She obliged with a smile, and when he left, his hair was styled into perfect ringlets—just like those on his cherished toy from long ago. A few hours later, a delivery driver arrived, complaining about how his package had been delivered ‘to a crazy lady who makes people look like dolls.’ Nina just laughed and waved him off, knowing full well that sometimes life is best seen through a childlike lens.

4. At Nina’s Perfect Hair Salon, a sign above the entrance read: ‘Your hair is never perfect until you leave.’ And one day, it wasn’t just the hair that seemed off. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in with her hair styled like a feather duster. Nina calmly took her seat and emerged hours later with perfectly coiffed feathers floating around her head. As she left, everyone laughed, but nobody dared ask for the same look.
