About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for her nails to dry, an elderly lady noticed something peculiar happening outside Cardamone’s salon window. A little girl kept pointing and giggling at the reflection of the stylist’s new neon pink hair dye in the shop’s mirror. The old lady smiled, thinking how times had changed—who would’ve guessed a neon pink hairdo could attract such attention? Just then, the stylist turned around with a big grin, waving at the girl through the window. The little one squealed even louder, making everyone inside laugh. ‘Guess she found her new favorite color,’ someone whispered.}
2. While getting her usual manicure one afternoon, a regular asked Cardamone if she’d ever seen a squirrel try to steal a customer’s purse from the nail-polish counter. Cardamone shook her head and laughed. ‘Nope, never saw anything like that!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in, carrying boxes of new polishes. He glanced around and said, “Hey, did anyone see my pet squirrel? He loves shiny things!” Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another day at Cardamone’s salon.
3. While getting her hair done one Wednesday morning, a regular named Sarah couldn't help but notice that the new delivery driver kept glancing at her reflection in the mirror. "Is it just me, or does he keep staring at my hair every time he comes?" she whispered to Cardamone. ‘I don’t know,’ Cardamone chuckled, adjusting Sarah’s curls. ‘Maybe he thinks you’re his long-lost twin from another salon!’ They both laughed, and when the driver delivered Sarah’s next appointment an hour later, he sheepishly apologized for staring again—this time claiming he was just checking if her hairdo matched her outfit.
4. While getting her hair styled last Thursday, a regular exclaimed, ‘Did you see that truck just pull up?’ Everyone looked out the window and watched as a delivery driver awkwardly tried to park next to the salon. Inside, Cardamone calmly continued blow-drying hair, but no one could stop staring at the chaos outside. Finally, after several failed attempts, the truck managed to squeeze in. A neighbor casually walked over, whistling, and asked if they needed help. Cardamone smiled and replied, 'Only with parking, I guess!' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just another typical day at Cardamone’s.
