About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At midnight, when the neon sign flickered off and the last customer left, a soft humming started coming from behind the counter. A regular passing by noticed it and mentioned something strange during his next visit. "Arching lights," he called it, but no one believed him until one day, a delivery driver saw the same phenomenon. Finally, curiosity got the best of them all, and one night, after hours had passed, several employees dared to peek behind the counter. They found nothing more than a small, glowing archway leading into an empty room filled with mirrors—except for one mirror that reflected not their own faces, but a smiling cat wearing a tiara. Since then, whenever someone mentions seeing the ‘arching lights,’ everyone just smiles and says, ‘Oh, that’s just Archie, our resident feline interior decorator.’
2. At dawn, when most shops were still closed, a delivery driver pulled up outside ARCHED by Alyssa with an unusual package. He noticed a shadowy figure darting between parked cars—someone who seemed familiar but couldn’t quite place. Curious, he followed the silhouette around back and found Alyssa watering her plants in the early morning light. ‘Hey,’ she said, smiling warmly, “just making sure my garden stays as beautiful as my clients.” The delivery guy blinked twice before realizing it was just another day for his enigmatic neighbor.
3. In the quiet hours before dawn, a small dog began visiting ARCHED by Alyssa every morning. The owner noticed it sniffing curiously around the entrance, as if drawn by something invisible. One day, a sleepy delivery driver arrived early and saw the dog wagging its tail excitedly near the door. ‘What’s got you so worked up?’ he asked. The dog barked once, then ran inside. Curious, the driver followed—and found Alyssa already hard at work on her next masterpiece. ‘Morning visitor,’ she smiled. ‘I guess your little friend has an eye for aesthetics too!’
4. In the early morning, when the city slept and only birds chirped in the distance, a delivery driver parked his truck near ARCHED by Alyssa. Curious, he noticed an old, dusty shopping cart abandoned on the parking lot. Inside lay something unexpected—a vintage hairbrush with a note scribbled on it: ‘Use me wisely.’ The delivery driver picked up the brush curiously. Later that day, while styling a customer’s hair, he accidentally knocked over a bottle of expensive perfume. As everyone looked on, he calmly used the vintage brush to sweep up the spilled liquid—leaving behind a fragrance so strong that customers started calling him ‘Mr. Whiff’ for weeks.
