About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for her usual cut, a regular noticed an old wooden comb stuck in the doorframe of LA Clippers salon. Curious, she picked it up and brought it inside. Since then, every customer leaving the place has found a strange little gift—a vintage hair accessory left behind by previous visitors. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a huge box full of wigs. He was puzzled when he saw dozens of antique combs, hairpins, and even a vintage hat among them. Turns out, everyone who took something forgot to take something else—like a tiny tiara or an ancient barrette. Now, besides vintage treasures, customers also leave with unexpected souvenirs from their neighbors’ closets.
2. In the quiet afternoon, a little girl entered the salon and pointed excitedly towards the window. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘look at that man with a giant afro!’ The stylist glanced up from her scissors just long enough to see a delivery driver sauntering down the street, his head topped by a perfectly styled Afro wig. The stylist chuckled and shook her head. ‘Honey, that’s not a real afro,’ she said gently. ‘It’s just a big wig.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then giggled as she watched the delivery driver wave cheerfully to their neighbor. ‘He looks funny, but he’s nice,’ she concluded, returning to her magazine.
3. A delivery driver arrived early one morning with a peculiar package. As he approached the door, he overheard two stylists whispering about something strange that had been happening in the mirrors lately. Curious, they followed the sound of chatter to the salon’s back room and found an old, dusty mirror reflecting not their own faces but those of customers who’d visited weeks ago. Startled, they giggled as they realized it was just a vintage mirror from the owner’s antique collection—until they noticed the price tag read ‘$99.99.’
4. While getting a trim one day, a customer asked curiously, ‘Do you ever get strange deliveries here?’ The stylist shrugged and smiled, replying casually, ‘Oh yeah, once in a while.’ A few minutes later, there was indeed a knock on the door. The delivery driver handed over a package addressed to ‘Barbershop,’ complete with an old-fashioned barber pole wrapped around it. As everyone laughed, the stylist explained, “Our neighbor must’ve thought I was opening a vintage barbershop!”
