About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the early morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Almonte Dominican with a box full of fresh flowers. As he approached the door, he noticed an unfamiliar scent wafting from inside—something sweet yet mysterious. Curious, he cracked open the door and peered in. Inside, he found only empty rooms and a faint smile on one of the mirrors. Turns out, it was just the owner testing new perfume samples for her beauty salon. The delivery driver left, shaking his head but smiling—a regular customer now, thanks to the unexpected aroma surprise.

2. In the dim light of dawn, a little girl skipped past Almonte Dominican, her eyes wide as she pointed at something unseen. ‘Mama,’ she whispered, ‘why does that lady’s hair look like it’s moving?’ Her mother smiled and gently explained, 'Honey, it's just the way her hairdo is styled.' The girl nodded thoughtfully, then giggled and ran off to play. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Almonte Dominican, someone would whisper, 'Did you see her hair move?'

3. In the late afternoon, a neighborhood dog began making strange noises outside Almonte Dominican. Passersby stopped to see what had caught his attention—only to discover a small bird perched on the salon’s neon sign, chirping along with the rhythmic hum. The bird seemed to be enjoying the beat so much that it started dancing on the sign, causing everyone to laugh. A delivery driver even offered some seeds from his truck, but the little performer ignored them and continued its impromptu performance. Eventually, the owner came out, shooed away the bird with a feather duster, and joked, ‘Welcome to Almonte Dominican—where even our signs get their own soundtrack!’

4. In the quiet hours before dawn, a cat darted into Almonte Dominican’s open door, startling the night staff. Ever since then, customers claim they see its shadowy silhouette prowling the salon’s empty hallways. One morning, an elderly lady arrived for her monthly manicure and asked nervously if she’d seen a stray cat wandering around. The manager smiled and replied, ‘We’ve had several visitors, ma’am—mostly delivery drivers and neighbors.’ As she left, the lady turned back with a twinkle in her eye: ‘I’ll be sure to bring him next time!’
