The Only Facial

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when The Only Facial closed its doors, a soft humming sound would occasionally drift through the alleyway. A delivery driver first noticed it, thinking it might be an old refrigerator left behind. But no one could figure out where it came from or why it only appeared after hours. Finally, someone dared to ask the owner about the noise. Turned out, it was just her new facial machine on silent mode—she claimed it helped customers relax even after they left. Ever since then, whenever anyone heard that hum, they’d smile and say, ‘Must be Mrs. Smith working late again.’

2. At dawn, when most beauty salons were still locked tight, a delivery driver noticed an unusual sight outside The Only Facial's window. Curious, he peered closer and saw a manicurist diligently painting tiny stars on a potted plant. ‘What in the world?’ muttered the driver. Just then, a neighbor passing by commented, ‘Oh, that’s Mr. Jenkins’ tree. He loves it when they do his facial there.’

3. At closing time, an old lady whispered to her friend: ‘Did you hear? The Only Facial is haunted by a ghost masseuse!’ One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Is it true they’ve seen a ghostly beautician with long fingers?’ A regular customer giggled and replied, ‘Only if you close your eyes during the facial!’

4. At closing time, a neighbor found a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper outside The Only Facial's door. Curious, she peeked inside and discovered it contained dozens of tiny, perfectly shaped facial masks. She opened one mask curiously—it was made from some unidentifiable material but felt like silk. On closer inspection, each had a small note reading: ‘For your perfect complexion—The Only Facial.’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a delivery driver who thought it would be fun to leave free samples for the staff.
