About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Ubu Hair, a regular always brought his shopping cart into the salon. One day, an announcement came over the intercom: ‘Please return your flying saucer to the lobby.’ It turned out that our regular had ordered a new spaceship online and accidentally selected the wrong address. The delivery driver was standing outside, confusedly holding a large metallic object. Everyone burst out laughing when the manager explained what happened—except for the poor guy with the shopping cart, who just wanted a haircut.

2. At Ubu Hair, customers often noticed an unusual visitor—a small dog would occasionally wander in through the open door. The staff never seemed surprised, but everyone stared curiously as he approached each chair, sniffing intently before settling down next to someone’s feet. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a box full of treats for the little dog. Everyone laughed when they saw him happily munching away on cookies while his owner got her hair done. ‘He must be a regular,’ someone whispered, and from that moment on, Ubu Hair became famous not just for its stylish cuts, but also for its canine companion who always left with a belly full of snacks.’

3. At Ubu Hair, a delivery driver once accidentally left a crate of penguins in the parking lot. Word quickly spread around town that Ubu Hair had adopted the penguins as new employees. Every morning, customers arrived early just to watch them waddle into work, their tiny flippers flapping comically as they adjusted to their new office shoes. Eventually, the penguins found their rhythm and became local celebrities, making Ubu Hair one of the most unique salons in the city.

4. At Ubu Hair, one day a customer exclaimed, ‘I think I just saw my neighbor’s parrot getting a trim!’ The stylist smiled and replied, 'That must’ve been Mr. Johnson's feathered friend! We do get quite the menagerie here.' The customer laughed, realizing it was just another day at Ubu Hair—where even birds come for a trim.
