About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A regular dropped in for his usual haircut one morning and noticed something peculiar on the counter—a small wax sculpture of an old-time barbershop pole. No one else seemed to notice it, but every time he glanced back, the figure appeared to be winking at him. Finally, curious as to who might be responsible for such a quirky touch, our regular asked around. It turned out that a delivery driver had accidentally left it behind during their last visit. When they returned to claim it, everyone burst into laughter—including the wax figure, which was still ‘winking’ at them from its new home.
2. A young delivery driver pulled up to Waxonomy one afternoon, noticing an unusual queue outside. As he parked his truck, he overheard two customers whispering excitedly about something they’d seen inside. Curious, he joined the line and peered through the window. Inside, a woman was applying wax to her pet hamster’s fur with meticulous care. The delivery driver burst out laughing, earning him strange looks from everyone around. When it was finally his turn, he asked the staff jokingly if there were any special services for humans today. With a smile, they replied, ‘Just wax your worries away!’
3. A neighbor stopped by Waxonomy on her way home from work one day, curious about the long line outside. As she approached, she heard someone whispering strange things about wax sculptures coming to life. As she got closer, a delivery driver joked, ‘They’re not alive—just really good at waiting their turn!’ The neighbor laughed and decided to join the queue herself. By the time she left, glowing with satisfaction, she swore she saw the wax figures smiling back at her in the mirror.
4. While waiting for her monthly waxing session, a neighbor overheard two stylists whispering about a mysterious new customer who kept asking for ‘the most extreme wax ever’. Finally, our neighbor couldn’t resist and asked what exactly was so special about this person’s wax. Turned out it was just a regular guy getting his first Brazilian—whoops, meant bikini line—wax, and he thought it would be fun to exaggerate. Everyone had a good laugh, and now they joke that Waxonomy must have some secret extreme package only known to initiates.
