Talking Heads

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At the Talking Heads hair salon, customers often noticed an unusual occurrence late at night. A young boy, waiting for his mom’s appointment, kept pointing and whispering, ‘Mom, look! The mannequins are moving!’ Finally, one evening a delivery driver remarked, 'Maybe they’re just mannequins on steroids!' Everyone laughed, but the boy insisted, 'No, really, they move their heads when no one looks.' Since then, the Talking Heads became known not only for hairstyles but also for occasional marionette performances after hours.

2. At the Talking Heads hair salon, early mornings were usually quiet until one day, a delivery driver arrived with a mysterious package. As he approached the counter, everyone could hear him muttering something under his breath. As he opened it, out popped a tiny parrot that started squawking and dancing on the counter. Everyone burst into laughter, including the usually stoic barbers. The delivery driver explained sheepishly that it was a promotional gift from his supplier. From then on, whenever someone got their hair cut at Talking Heads, they might just receive an unexpected feathered visitor.

3. At the Talking Heads hair salon, every afternoon around closing time, a mysterious man would appear out of nowhere and start whispering to empty chairs. One day, a delivery driver walked in, confusedly asking if anyone had seen his package. The owner smiled and replied, ‘It’s right here—talking to your chair.’

4. At the Talking Heads hair salon, every night after closing time, the sound of gentle laughter could be heard from the empty hallway. No one knew whose it was or why it stopped exactly when the last customer left. One night, a delivery driver came in for his usual trim and asked if he’d heard any strange noises lately. The barber shook his head, but as they chatted, they both realized they were laughing along with that familiar voice down the hall. Turns out, it was just an old radio show coming from the next door apartment—talking heads indeed.
