About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the quiet hours before dawn, when Off The Top salon was usually empty, a delivery driver noticed something strange. A soft humming sound filled the air, growing louder with each passing minute. Curious, he peered inside and saw nothing but shadows until a familiar voice called out from the back room: ‘Hey, delivery guy! Thought you’d never come!’ Turned out it was just the owner, humming along to his favorite radio show while cutting hair for invisible clients.
2. At midnight, when most salons were closed and city streets slept, a delivery driver pulled up to Off The Top. He knocked on the door, but no one answered. Curious, he peered inside through the window and saw something odd—every mirror had been turned around so customers faced away from their reflections. Suddenly, an old lady with a comb in her hand appeared behind him and asked, ‘What are you staring at, dear?’ Embarrassed, the delivery driver stammered that he was just checking if everything was okay. With a twinkle in her eye, she replied, “Of course everything’s fine! We’re doing special hairstyles for our mirrors tonight.” And with that, she went back to arranging her combs on the counter.
3. At noon, when Off The Top salon was usually deserted, an old man with a mysterious hat entered the door. He approached the counter and asked for his usual cut. The stylist nodded, picked up her scissors, and started humming an old tune. Suddenly, she noticed that his hat had turned into a tiny birdhouse. Startled, she exclaimed, ‘Where did you get that?’ He smiled and replied, ‘Oh, just from my neighbor who delivers bread.’
4. At lunchtime, when Off The Top salon was usually empty, a delivery driver parked outside and noticed something peculiar on the door: ‘Haircuts for Pets Only Today.’ Curious, he entered—and found himself sitting in a stylist’s chair next to a very confused poodle. The stylist, thinking it was just another day, calmly asked the poodle, 'Would you like a trim or a full style?' The delivery driver burst out laughing, explaining what he'd seen. Everyone had a good laugh, including the confused poodle who eventually left with a new hairstyle—much to the amusement of the neighborhood.
