Bee's Knees Beauty

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular asked the beautician, ‘Do you ever see bees around here?’ She replied, ‘Not really.’ But then, customers started noticing tiny honeycombs appearing on the windowsills. Then one day, a delivery driver mentioned jokingly that maybe it was the new bee-friendly plant outside attracting them. Soon enough, everyone laughed off the mystery, and the honeycombs disappeared as quickly as they’d appeared. Now, whenever someone mentions bees, the beauticians just smile and say, ‘Oh, those were our little friends from last summer!’

2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up outside and noticed something odd: every time he approached Bee’s Knees Beauty, his car radio inexplicably switched to an oldies station playing nothing but beehive hairdo hits from the ’60s. Finally curious, he stopped by one morning just as a regular was leaving. ‘Did you hear that music?’ asked the delivery guy. The man nodded, smiling mysteriously. ‘Oh yeah,’ he said, ‘I always get a free facial whenever I come in.’

3. A little girl walked into Bee’s Knees Beauty one afternoon, her eyes wide with wonder. She pointed excitedly at the ceiling, whispering, 'Mama, why are there tiny umbrellas dancing above our heads?' The stylist looked up and smiled, replying gently, ‘Those aren’t just any umbrellas, sweetheart—those are our special hairdryer diffusers!’ The little girl giggled, satisfied with the explanation, as she settled into a chair for her first ever haircut. Back in the salon, everyone burst out laughing, realizing that maybe Bee’s Knees needed a new sign for their unique decor.

4. One foggy morning, as customers were settling in for their weekly treatments, someone noticed something peculiar: the aroma of honey seemed to waft through the air from nowhere. As everyone looked around suspiciously, a delivery driver walked in carrying a box marked ‘Honey Extract’. Turns out, it was just an overzealous beekeeper neighbour who thought his bees needed some extra love. The scent stayed, but so did good humour and laughter—after all, it was just another day at Bee’s Knees Beauty.
