About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another day in That Finishing Touch salon when a regular, adjusting his hat, walked in with an unusual request. ‘I’d like my usual,’ he said, ‘but could you add something special? Just… one tiny little touch.’ The stylist nodded and got to work, curious but not questioning. After an hour or so, the man left, satisfied with his new look. Days later, everyone in town noticed that whenever they saw him, he always tipped his hat slightly—just enough for a perfect finishing touch. It turned out he wasn’t asking for anything extra after all; it was simply his way of saying thanks.

2. A regular was admiring his new haircut in the mirror when he noticed something strange. The reflection kept changing—first into an old friend from high school, then into a famous actor, and finally into someone who looked suspiciously like the local mayor. Finally, the reflection morphed into a grinning poodle—a family pet that had gone missing weeks ago! Turns out, the owner recognized her dog and burst into tears of joy. The regular just shook his head and said, ‘Guess I should’ve asked for a trim instead of a transformation!’

3. One morning, while waiting for her turn at That Finishing Touch, a woman overheard an unusual conversation between two regulars. "Did you see that new guy delivering packages yesterday?" asked one. "No, but I heard he's got a habit of leaving mysterious notes with every delivery," replied the other. Suddenly, another customer chimed in, ‘I saw him today—he left a note saying “Your curls will shine like never before!”’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just a hairdresser’s clever marketing gimmick.

4. It was an ordinary autumn afternoon when a delivery driver pulled up to That Finishing Touch. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something peculiar on the sidewalk—hair strands everywhere, like someone had been cutting hair right there. He bent down to pick them up and heard a voice from inside: 'Sir, are you okay?' Turned out it was just a regular customer who’d fallen asleep during their trim. The owner joked, ‘Guess your hair needed more than one touch today!’
