About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most salons were still closed, Alejandra’s Beauty Salon opened its doors wide. A delivery driver pulled up suspiciously, glancing around before stepping inside. The salon was empty except for a sleepy-looking receptionist who yawned and asked what he needed. The driver mumbled something about a wrong address, paid quickly, and left. Later that day, a neighbor saw Alejandra polishing her new car—a Porsche—with a smile on her face. She’d been working nights to save for it, and now she had a perfect excuse to open early every morning.
2. One morning, while driving past Alejandra’s Beauty Salon, a delivery driver wondered aloud: ‘Why does that lady always wave at exactly 8:15?’ Curious, he parked nearby and watched through the window. At precisely 8:15, Alejandra appeared in the salon door, waved cheerfully, then disappeared inside. The next day, the delivery driver decided to return early. Again, she waved at exactly 8:15—this time, waving back at him! Turned out, it wasn’t her greeting him—it was just her daily ritual of saying goodbye to her reflection in the salon mirror.
3. At nightfall, a neighborhood watchman strolled past Alejandra’s Beauty Salon. Suddenly, he noticed something odd: every time someone entered the salon, their reflection in the mirror seemed to follow them outside. Curious, the watchman approached the door but found it locked tight. Just then, an elderly lady emerged from inside and smiled warmly. ‘Don’t worry,’ she said, ‘it’s just our special “reflection” service for loyal customers.’
4. One day, while waiting for her haircut, an impatient customer glanced around Alejandra’s Beauty Salon and asked out loud: ‘Where does everyone else go if they want to avoid these long waits?’ Suddenly, a regular named Juan chimed in with a twinkle in his eye: ‘Why, you just come here earlier or later—Alejandra’s magic is always on time!’ The whole salon burst into laughter, realizing that sometimes life’s best secrets are right under our noses.
