About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most nail bars are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Topcoat Nail Bar with an unusual package. The barista noticed something odd about him—his hands were wrapped in bandages, but he insisted on entering anyway. As he approached the counter, his voice trembled slightly through the bandages. ‘I’ve got a special order for Miss…’ he whispered, pulling out a small box. The barista took it curiously, noticing that the wrapping paper was old and faded. When she opened it later, there was just a single, perfect nail polish brush inside—with no explanation or note. To this day, some customers still joke that Topcoat Nail Bar has its own secret clientele.’
2. At closing time, when Topcoat Nail Bar’s neon sign flickers off, a mysterious voice begins echoing over the empty lobby. ‘Your nails know secrets,’ it whispers in a sultry tone. Regulars claim they hear it only after midnight, but no one dares stay late enough to investigate. One night, an impatient delivery driver waited outside until he heard the whisper. Thinking it was just his imagination, he finally walked inside and asked, 'What secrets do my nails know?' The next morning, everyone laughed when they saw his manicure—his nails were painted bright pink with glitter! "I guess my nails knew I needed some pep," he shrugged.
3. At midnight, when Topcoat Nail Bar should be empty, a faint humming could be heard from inside. The owner thought it was just her imagination until she saw a shadowy figure polishing nails in the mirrorless booth. One night, a delivery driver walked into the bar and asked for his usual manicure. When he left, his package was neatly wrapped with colorful ribbons—just like the ones on the gift boxes next door.
4. At closing time, when Topcoat Nail Bar’s neon sign flickers off, a tiny kitten would appear on the steps outside. It always sat in exactly the same spot, watching as customers left, its big eyes never blinking. One night, an exhausted delivery driver stumbled out, muttering about how his shift was never ending. The kitten approached him and started purring loudly, until he reached into his pocket for a treat. Suddenly, the neon sign blinked back on—just long enough for everyone to see the words: ‘Thank you for visiting Topcoat Nail Bar!’
