About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for her usual appointment, Sarah noticed something strange outside the Smiling Coast beauty salon. A little girl kept giggling and pointing at the window of the neighboring shop, but no one else seemed to notice. Curious, Sarah leaned closer to the window and saw a colorful kite stuck on the signboard next to the salon. The little girl was trying to reach it with a long stick, still giggling. Eventually, a delivery driver passing by helped her free the kite, and they both shared a laugh. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned 'the smiling coast,' people remembered not just the salon but also the friendly girl and her colorful adventures.
2. While getting her monthly trim, Alice overheard an unusual announcement over the salon’s intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our stylist’s special shampoo today makes your hair grow exactly one centimeter per minute.’ Alice couldn’t believe her ears—one centimeter a minute? She glanced around nervously but everyone seemed too absorbed in their magazines or smartphones. Later, when she mentioned it to her neighbor, he casually admitted, ‘Oh yeah, they’ve been doing that every Wednesday for years. Just don’t tell anyone else!’
3. While getting her weekly highlights done, Maria heard an odd humming coming from behind the closed door of the new office next door. Curious, she tiptoed over and found a delivery driver dozing off with his headphones on. Turns out he was listening to some soothing ocean sounds while working inland. Maria cracked a smile—maybe Smiling Coast wasn’t just a name after all.
4. While getting her monthly highlights done, Elena found a small envelope taped inside the salon mirror. Curious, she opened it and discovered a handwritten note with cryptic instructions to ‘visit the smiling coast after sunset.’ Intrigued but cautious, Elena followed the clue one evening. She ended up at a quaint beachside café where an anonymous neighbor shared a free facial and a heartfelt story about self-care. The mystery was solved—just another charming Smiling Coast secret.
