About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Antwon's Salon with an unusual package. As he approached the door, he noticed something strange happening inside. Inside, he heard Antwon yelling, ‘No no no, not THAT way!’ Turning the corner, the driver saw Antwon frantically trying to style a live parrot into a mohawk. A neighbor walked in and asked, ‘Antwon, what on earth are you doing?’ To which Antwon replied, ‘Just finishing his morning look before work.’

2. One day, while customers were getting their hair done at Antwon's Salon, a mysterious sign appeared on the window: ‘Today's special: permanent waves for plants.’ Soon enough, everyone in the salon started asking questions—what kind of plant wave was it? Would it make their hair greener or something? Antwon just smiled and said he’d figure it out later. By evening, there were pots and pans everywhere as people brought in their houseplants for the special treatment. The next morning, when they came back, every single leaf had perfectly curly waves—just like those old-timey Hollywood curls. It became Antwon's signature service ever since.

3. One afternoon, as customers relaxed in Antwon's Salon, the sound of an urgent announcement crackled over the loudspeaker: 'Attention, everyone—your hairstyles are now officially works of art!' Everyone froze for a moment, then burst into laughter. A regular stood up and declared, ‘Finally, someone took my word for it!’ The announcement cut off abruptly, leaving Antwon scratching his head and muttering something about needing new equipment.

4. While waiting for her turn at Antwon's Salon, a regular glanced out the window and exclaimed, 'Did you see that? A pigeon just walked into Mr. Johnson's office!' Another customer, a delivery driver, chuckled and shook his head. ‘Must be one of those days when even pigeons get confused,’ he muttered under his breath. The regular smiled knowingly as she turned back to admire her reflection in the mirror, thinking maybe Antwon's Salon had some special magic after all.
