About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular stopped in one morning to pick up his usual cut and color. As he left, he noticed something odd on the counter—a small, handwritten sign that read ‘Free Hairpins Today.’ No one seemed to be paying attention. Curious, our regular asked what it meant. The stylist shrugged and said, 'Just a little promotion—if you take one hairpin today, I’ll give you an extra five minutes of styling.' Our guy grinned, thinking he’d got a bargain. Later that day, everyone around town was walking with mismatched hairpins, some even wearing them as earrings or keychains. It turned out Loose Ends had accidentally printed too many pins and needed to get rid of them fast.

2. In Loose Ends salon, a delivery driver left an unusual package on the counter one afternoon—an old, dusty suitcase wrapped in brown paper. No note, no explanation. The owner opened it curiously only to discover a collection of vintage hair accessories from the 1950s. Curious customers started asking where they could buy such pretty things, and soon enough, Loose Ends became known for its unique vintage hair accessory line. Even the delivery driver popped in occasionally to chat with the owner—a regular now—about his mysterious deliveries.

3. In Loose Ends salon, a regular was complaining to the stylist: ‘I can never remember where I parked my car!’ The stylist replied with a smile: ‘Don’t worry, it’s always somewhere between your appointments.’ Next day, an anxious delivery driver approached the stylist: ‘Did you see where I left my van?’ She smiled again and said: ‘It’s waiting patiently in the queue for your next appointment.’

4. While waiting for her perm to be finished, a neighbor whispered to the stylist, 'Did you hear about the new guy who keeps showing up with strange boxes?' The stylist raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, ‘What kind of strange boxes?’ The neighbor leaned closer and stage-whispered, ‘He says they’re prototypes for his new line of eco-friendly shampoo bottles.’ Everyone burst out laughing when she replied, ‘Next time he comes in, maybe I’ll ask him if he needs any test subjects!’
