About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In an ordinary corner of New York City, LBI’s Beauty Supply & Hair Salon had been quietly serving customers for decades. One day, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in one of the salon’s supply trucks—a mysterious box labeled only ‘Special Order.’ The delivery driver opened it curiously and found inside dozens of tiny hair clips shaped like hearts. Word spread quickly among locals who started coming in just to see if their wish would come true—maybe that very day they’d meet their soulmate. Soon enough, LBI’s became known not only as a beauty supply store but also as a place where love stories began.}

2. At dawn one morning, when most salons were still closed, a delivery driver arrived at LBI’s Beauty Supply with a peculiar package wrapped in brown paper. As he opened it, everyone inside caught a whiff of something that smelled like freshly baked cookies. Curious, someone from the salon took out a cookie and bit into it—only to discover it was made entirely of hair gel! The whole place erupted in laughter as customers and staff tried unsuccessfully to wash off the sticky substance. From then on, LBI’s became known not just for its products but also for occasional culinary experiments.

3. At dusk, a little girl entered the beauty supply store and asked the surprised owner, ‘Can I try on your wigs too many times?’ The owner blinked a few times before laughing, ‘Of course not, honey!’ She shook her head with a smile, thinking it was just another day in the life of LBI’s. The little girl giggled and ran out, leaving behind only a trail of colorful hair extensions.

4. At closing time, an elderly gentleman approached the counter. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, fumbling with a tiny comb in his pocket. ‘Do you sell hair growth potions that work overnight?’ The clerk smiled knowingly and reached under the counter. 'We’ve got something special,' she whispered. The old man’s eyes lit up as she pulled out a small bottle wrapped in tissue paper. He paid quickly, then left. Later that night, everyone heard him singing softly to himself—‘overnight miracle’—until a delivery driver overheard and asked if it was working on him too.
