A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a regular was getting his usual cut, the salon’s intercom crackled to life with an unexpected announcement: ‘Attention please—your stylist has just discovered how to make your hair grow twice as fast.’ The regular scratched his head in disbelief, but before he could ask any questions, another voice chimed in over the intercom: 'And ladies, don’t worry—we’ve also found a way to make your hair grow thicker!' Suddenly, everyone in the salon started laughing, realizing it had been a prank by DeOngelo himself. The regular walked out smiling, thinking, ‘At least my haircuts here are always interesting!’
2. A neighborhood delivery driver pulled up in front of DeOngelo & Company one afternoon, his truck humming softly. As he stepped into the salon for his monthly trim, something peculiar happened—everyone inside seemed frozen mid-movement. The delivery driver looked around curiously, then reached into his truck for a clipboard and pen. With a serious expression, he began circling everyone’s heads on the wall chart, muttering, ‘Okay, who’s next? We’re running behind schedule here.’
3. One day, as a regular was getting her weekly trim, an unusual message came over the salon’s intercom: ‘Attention all beauticians—your next appointment is requesting a hairstyle inspired by your favorite childhood toy!’ The stylist, DeOngelo, scratched his head, trying to remember which toy he loved most as a kid. Finally, he settled on Mr. Potato Head and created a colorful, whimsical look that left everyone laughing. The regular walked out beaming, proudly showing off her new 'Mr. Potato Head' hairdo to her neighbor, who promptly ordered a similar style for his next visit—only asking for Barbie instead.
4. One Saturday morning, while a little girl waited for her mom's appointment, she giggled when the salon door suddenly opened on its own. Suddenly, an old lady in a flowery hat waddled in, startling everyone. She smiled warmly and asked if anyone had seen her granddaughter, who was playing outside. Turned out, it was the little girl’s grandmother, come to pick her up. Everyone laughed, realizing how close they’d all been to a heartwarming reunion instead of a ghost story.
