About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the early morning fog of a typical Southern California dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Sola Salons with an unusual package. The salon’s neon sign flickered softly in the half-light, as if whispering secrets no one had heard for years. As he approached the door, a soft voice called out: ‘Hey, you forgot your smile!’ Turned around, the delivery driver saw only a blurry silhouette—probably just his imagination playing tricks in the dim light. Inside, everything was quiet except for the gentle humming of hairdryers and the occasional giggle from a satisfied customer.
2. At closing time one night, a regular asked the receptionist, ‘Do you ever wonder why the lights in here flicker exactly when I leave?’ The receptionist smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘Actually, sir, that’s because our electricity bill is so low they only turn on the lights for you.’ The regular laughed heartily and said, ‘Well, keep up the magic!’
3. While getting her hair done one afternoon, a regular asked the stylist, 'Have you noticed how many famous people come here?' The stylist smiled and replied, 'Not really, but I do see some interesting characters.' A few days later, the same customer returned with a big smile on his face. ‘Guess who was here yesterday?’ he teased. The stylist raised an eyebrow, curious. ‘Who then?’ With a mischievous grin, the man whispered, ‘The mailman!’
4. While waiting for her appointment one day, an elderly lady noticed something peculiar outside the window of Sola Salons. Suddenly, she saw a delivery driver frantically waving from across the street. Curious, she leaned closer and realized he was trying to signal that his dog had escaped from the car and was running wildly towards the salon! The whole neighborhood came out to help herd the little furball back into the vehicle, creating quite a commotion. When everything settled down, everyone laughed, knowing it would be another story to tell over coffee.
