About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular asked the stylist, ‘Do you ever get strange requests here?’ The stylist shrugged and replied, ‘Just another day at Wavelengths.’ But then, one customer started insisting on getting their hair styled like an old-fashioned radio antenna… The stylist raised an eyebrow but agreed to give it a try. After an hour of meticulous work, she stood back and admired her creation—a perfectly coiffured antenna that swayed gracefully with every movement. As the customer left, smiling broadly, a delivery driver remarked, 'That’s some antenna!' And just like that, Wavelengths became known for its unique hairstyles—and occasional broadcasts on FM radio frequencies.'

2. One day, while drying a customer’s hair, the stylist heard an excited voice from outside. Peering through the window, she saw a small dog frantically wagging its tail and pointing towards the sky. Curious, she stepped out to see what had caught the animal’s attention—and there it was: a rainbow so vivid it looked like someone had painted it on the clouds. Turns out, the rainbow was just a big kite flown by a neighborhood kid who thought he’d won first prize in the local parade. The stylist laughed as she helped the startled pooch sniff around until his owner—a delivery driver—showed up, red-faced but grinning. ‘Guess I’ll be late for lunch,’ he joked, scratching his head.

3. While cutting a client's hair one afternoon, the stylist noticed something odd—a faint humming sound coming from behind the wall. Curious, she mentioned it to her next customer, who immediately agreed it sounded like someone playing an old-fashioned organ. Soon enough, other customers joined in the conversation, and before long, they were all standing around listening intently. Turns out, every Tuesday evening, a retired music teacher from down the street practiced his accordion behind that very wall! No wonder everyone was so fascinated—his rendition of 'When Irish Eyes Are Smiling' became the talk of the neighborhood.

4. While cutting a client's hair one morning, the stylist noticed something peculiar—an eerie whistling sound seemed to come from nowhere. Curious, she stopped mid-cut and looked around, but saw no one. The noise grew louder, almost like someone was humming in another room. Turning to her client, she asked if they heard it too. With a smile, the man replied, 'No, I’m just here for my bi-weekly trim.' Relieved, she went back to work—and so did the mysterious whistle.
