About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Los Nitidos salon, customers often noticed an unusual occurrence late at night. A little girl with twinkling eyes would appear in the window, brushing her hair meticulously, even though no one else was around. One evening, a delivery driver stopped by and asked if he could help her. With a shy smile, she replied, 'Just admiring your handsome face,' before vanishing into thin air. The next day, everyone joked that maybe Los Nitidos had a secret admirer who wasn’t so secret after all.

2. At Los Nitidos salon, one day a little girl walked in with her mother for a haircut. As she waited, she kept glancing curiously at the old mirror above the reception desk. Suddenly, the reflection of a strange man appeared behind her—only he wasn’t there when she turned around. Finally, her mom called out, ‘Honey, stop staring at that mirror!’ The girl giggled and said, ‘But Mom, I’m not seeing anyone—it’s just an old reflection trick.’ They both laughed, and soon enough, the mystery man vanished into thin air.

3. At Los Nitidos salon, a delivery driver once found an old, dusty typewriter on the loading dock. No one could remember where it came from or why it was there. One day, while cleaning around the vintage typewriter, a regular customer discovered an ancient letter hidden inside. It turned out to be a love note from the original owner’s great-grandmother to her barber—a heartfelt plea for him not to leave town after World War II. The whole neighborhood gathered to hear the story, and now everyone stops by Los Nitidos just to see if another forgotten treasure will surface.

4. At Los Nitidos salon, a regular brought his dog for a trim. When the pooch saw the stylist’s colorful collection of combs and brushes, he started barking excitedly and ran towards them, as if recognizing something familiar. As it turned out, the stylist had once owned that very same dog years ago. The canine recognized her unique scent on the tools, and before anyone knew it, they were both happily reunited—complete with kisses and tail-wagging. The regular was overjoyed, too, because now he had a new friend in the salon.
