About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Napoleon’s and noticed something odd: the reflection of an old man in the shop window seemed to follow him wherever he walked. Curious, he glanced back at the window—and saw not just one but two elderly gentlemen, arm-in-arm, smiling warmly. The next day, when another delivery driver stopped by, they found the same reflection, now joined by three laughing faces. Word spread quickly around town that Napoleon’s was home to an invisible social club for retired gentlemen. Some even claimed it improved their skin after visiting.

2. One day, while getting her hair done at Napoleon's, a regular asked curiously: 'I wonder if Napoleon ever checks out our beauty secrets?' Another customer overheard and joked, ‘Well, he probably prefers ours to his own!’ The stylist smiled knowingly, and everyone laughed, realizing that maybe Napoleon Bonaparte would indeed be impressed with our modern beauty rituals.’

3. At dawn, when most salons were still closed, an early jogger passed Napoleon’s and heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. Curious, they peered through the window and saw only a small lamp flickering dimly. Inside, a regular was humming softly as he applied facial masks to mannequins. ‘Who would’ve thought,’ laughed the jogger, ‘that Napoleon’s opens at midnight for waxing robots?’

4. At dawn, when most salons were still closed, an early jogger passed Napoleon’s and saw a familiar face through the window. ‘Who leaves their hair appointment that early?’ he muttered, noticing a man in a tuxedo frantically waving goodbye to someone inside. As he approached closer, he recognized the tuxedo as belonging to Napoleon's regular customer—a delivery driver who always came in after midnight. Turns out, the driver had accidentally scheduled his waxing session for sunrise instead of sunset. By the time the salon opened, it was too late for an emergency cancellation.
