About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in Smith + Fox’s parking lot—a vintage comb with an engraved note reading ‘To our best stylist.’ No one claimed it, and every day another antique item appeared there. Finally, an old pair of scissors signed ‘Best wishes from your future clientele’ appeared. The staff decided to throw a party, inviting everyone who might’ve left their belongings. In the end, only a grumpy old man showed up—claiming he’d forgotten his comb. Everyone laughed so hard that they renamed him ‘Mr. Combs.’
2. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Smith + Fox and noticed an unusual item on the loading dock—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper. Curious, he picked it up and found a note inside reading: ‘For whoever finds this.’ He opened it carefully, only to discover a tiny handwritten sign saying ‘Free Haircut for Someone Special.’ Inside was a neatly folded note addressed to ‘The Next Person Who Finds This.’ That evening, while styling a regular’s hair, Alice from Smith + Fox smiled knowingly and whispered, ‘Maybe today’s your lucky day…’
3. One day, while stocking shelves in Smith + Fox's supply room, a delivery driver stumbled upon a mysterious box labeled only ‘For Emergencies’. Curious, she opened it to find a single comb with an old note inside reading: ‘Use wisely.’ Excited by her discovery, she tried it on the next customer—a regular whose hair was always a mess. Miraculously, his hair looked perfect after using the comb. Word spread quickly, and soon everyone came for the magical comb. Turned out it was just an old antique from the owner’s grandfather, but who cared? It became Smith + Fox’s secret selling point—‘the comb that tames even the wildest mane!’
4. One morning, a little girl walked into Smith + Fox with her mother. As she looked around, her eyes widened when she saw the stylist blow-drying a client’s furry poodle instead of human hair. The stylist smiled and said, ‘It’s okay, honey—we do animals here too!’ The little girl giggled and settled in for what turned out to be an unforgettable experience. From then on, whenever someone mentioned Smith + Fox, people would smile and whisper, ‘That place where they blow-dry dogs, right?’
