About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for her turn, little Sarah noticed something strange happening outside Headline Salon’s window. A delivery driver kept stopping mid-stride every time he passed a certain spot on the sidewalk. Curious, Sarah leaned closer and saw that the man was staring intently at his reflection in the salon’s window—a reflection of himself, dressed as a penguin. Turns out, it was just another day for the neighborhood mailman, who thought he looked like a penguin whenever he wore his uniform. Everyone had a good laugh, including poor adelphic delivery driver.

2. While getting her usual trim one afternoon, a regular asked the stylist, ‘Do you ever notice how everyone who walks past seems to be humming the same song?’ The stylist shrugged and smiled. ‘You know, I’ve been thinking,’ she said, ‘maybe they’re all singing along with your new hairstyle!’ The regular laughed heartily, glad for the compliment, as he left the salon whistling an unfamiliar tune.

3. While getting her hair done one day, a regular leaned over and whispered, 'Did you see that delivery guy just walked in backwards?' Curious, she glanced up and saw only an ordinary man pushing a bike. Smiling, she asked what was so special about walking in reverse. He shrugged, saying he did it because his dog always pulls him forward when on leash. ‘So now I’m teaching him patience,’ he joked.

4. While getting her hair styled one day, a regular glanced up from the mirror and saw an unusual announcement on the salon’s TV screen: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our new line of shampoo bottles is now arranged alphabetically.’ Curious, she asked the stylist if it was always like that. With a smile, the stylist replied, 'No, ma’am—today’s just alphabetical.' A delivery driver overheard and quipped, ‘Must’ve been one heckuva storm last night!’
