About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Lee Nails, customers often noticed an odd occurrence late at night. A regular would arrive with his toolbox, quietly setting up a makeshift workshop in the corner of the salon. It turned out he was simply fixing loose screws and replacing old light bulbs—all while humming softly to himself. One day, a customer asked if he could fix their wobbly chair too. To everyone’s surprise, Lee Nails now offers furniture repairs alongside manicures.

2. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up outside Lee Nails with a heavy box in hand. As he unlocked his truck, he heard a soft humming coming from inside the salon. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old lady, perfectly manicured, dancing along to some unseen tune. She was so absorbed that she didn’t notice him until he cleared his throat. With a smile, she curtsied and said, ‘Just warming up for my evening performance!’ The delivery driver left, shaking his head but grinning, wondering if Lee Nails had secretly turned into a retirement home for professional ballerinas.

3. At Lee Nails, a regular customer once exclaimed, ‘I thought I recognized that voice!’ One morning, as he left for work, he heard a familiar laugh coming from inside the salon. As he approached the door, he saw an unfamiliar face behind the chair—a friendly neighborhood delivery driver getting his nails done. Turned out their voices were eerily similar, and now they exchanged jokes every time they bumped into each other around town.

4. At Lee Nails, customers began noticing strange noises coming from the back room after hours. One day, a curious client asked: 'Do you keep a talking parrot in there?' The owner smiled and replied, ‘No, but I do have a chatty customer who comes in late at night!’ Turns out, it was just an elderly gentleman next door, practicing his English with every visit. The whole thing turned into a neighborhood tradition—everyone now greets him warmly when he pops in for a manicure.’
