1-5-1 Hair Salon Contest!
All right, here's the deal!
Leave me ONE comment with ONE cheesy hair salon name from your area, and your town or state:
1. It can be a hair salon or a pet grooming salon but it must have a punny name (think "groaner").
2. It has to ACTUALLY EXIST.
3. It can be from the phone book or something you pass every day.
4. Like this: "In Daytona Beach there is a salon called Hair Force. HAHAHAHA!"
For every FIVE comments I get I will give away ONE free download of my Reversi sock pattern. So 50 comments = 10 patterns!
Seriously, all you have to do is look one up! Contest closes Saturday April 19 at midnight.
**Update** please leave me only ONE comment per person, though you can include more than one salon name. I'm keeping a count. Thanks!

"Split Endz" in Enfield, CT.
in san diego, there is a grooming/boarding place called "metropawliton dog" that makes me want to puke every time i see it. gah!
Curl Up and Dye in Minneapolis, MN. :) (We have Sweeney Todd's, too, but that's not punny, per se.)
Back home in Erie, PA there was a salon called "Shear Madness" that was right up the road from my house...
There's one here in Nashville on Elm Hill Pike called Kinky Roots.
"BANGZ" in Montclair, NJ. The best part is that they're expanding to become a full service salon but the name BANGZ will remain.
Ha - what a great contest idea! I pass a pet salon called "Groomingdales" every day on my way work - it cracks me up. Winston Salem, NC.
Hair Drezzers On Fire
San Diego, CA
Makes me want to go in and see the flames.
Groomingdales-a pet salon outside Anniston, AL that cracks me up when I drive by.
Since someone already took my favorite - Curl Up & Dye (we have one in Saint Paul too), I looked at a list of names and found this one - I love it and may have to start going there - Tortoise and Hair ...
Okay, this isn't a hair salon, but it is too funny not to share.
Cao Dung Day Spa in Annandale, VA
Say it out loud
I kid you not!
Would you go there?!
I too have a couple of local favourites that are not hair salons:
The Wing On funeral parlour
and the
Hong Fat BBQ pork restaurant
LMAO every time I pass by!
We've got a bunch:
Buzz, Iowa City, Iowa
Cut It Loose, Coralville, Iowa
Cuts 2 Dye 4, Iowa City, Iowa
G Spot, Iowa City, Iowa
There's "Lock and Mane" located at the corner of Locke St and Main St in Hamilton, Ontario
if you do a search for bad hair salon names you come up with this one. warning, there is some mild foul langauge.....

Curl Up and Dye. First saw it in a little town south of here, Tulia, I think. Then I saw one more locally. (Close to Fort Worth, TX).
Hair Deaux in Euless, TX.
Well, we have Ocean Waves and Cuts (we are on the Oregon Coast) and Waves & More. The ever popular Shear Sensations, also!
And my most favorite Chinese restaurant name ever is Hung Far Low in Portland, Oregon!
How can I pick ONE????
Hair It Is ... in St Paul MN
Melissa's Shear Friends in Elmira, NY...I pass it every day on my way to work.
there is one the town over (Belleville Ontario) called "LidZ"
In Charleston, we have Cutters Cove, to go along with the nautical atmosphere of the town, Hair Bears, and Head Quarters. We also have Touched by Tanneka, which isn't a pun, but totally creeps me out!
In Champlin, we have Mud Puppies!
Great place with a fun name.
Cathy
Here in SD we have the The Chop shoppe and Whoopti Do Hair salon and Etch salon which sounds more like tattoo Parlor to me.
Each day I drive by a doggy salon named Neiman Barkus. Total groaner, even if it's not for people.
To-daze Hair in Blaine, Minnesota.
I'm still not sure what they were going for with that one.
I am still cracking up over Andi's day spa. No, I don't think I would go and I'd want to know what's in their mud masks.
We had this hair place back in upstate NY called, "Who Cut Your Hair." kind of after the "Whose on first bit." There radio ads were always annoying.
Let's see... There is A Pawsitive Touch Grooming Salon in South St. Paul, MN, and Joan's Little Hair House, in Cottage Grove, MN. Both of them make me chuckle every time I see them.
got the Curl up and dye as well
also the Wild Hare (a rabbit is their logo)
Head Hunters is one of my favorites, Mane Event is kinda corny. The guy who has been in business underneath our day spa simply calls his business Hair.
There is Hair to Eternity in East haven, CT
In Parker Colorado, we have some strange ones for people:
Tangles - Are they going to tangle my hair?
Sahair - Sahaira would've been funnier
and
Hair on the Rock - WTF??
For pets, in colorado, we have
Shampoodle, pet empawrium and spaw
There's also Doo Care, it's a poop pickup service.
I forgot Lewis and Bark in Littleton, CO. It's right across the street from A Knitted Peace and it cracks me up everytime I see it.
There's one on Rt. 3 in, I believe, Palermo, Maine, that we pass en route to my grandmother's. It's called Cutting Remarks and Catty Nails.
Hair We R - Westminster, CO
The Mane Cut - Lakewood, CO
Not dumb, but I've never quite gotten this one - Once Is Forever - Denver, CO
I think the worst one in Prince George is probably the "Do's & Don'ts Hair Salon."
Be Hair Now
No, really. I used to get my hair cut there.
On the cape, in addition to a Groomingdales, there is
"The Fur Side" in Sandwich, MA!
Loved reading these comments!

I just got my hair cut yesterday and was browsing the hair cut magazines and came across a lot. I don't know that we have any cool ones here, but here's one I found while reading at my boring salon (The Colour Room):
Bangs N Burns, Alexandria, VA
Here's another cute one:
Fourth Lock on Canal St in Washington D.C. I don't know if it's on the 4th of the canal's locks, but the hair connection is great.
Hey, we have a Hair Port too, San Mateo, CA!
Any other Hairitige s out there? (San Mateo, CA)
There's a hair salon in Marshfield MA called the Permanent Solution. I think it is a very bad choice, it makes me think of Hitlers permanent solution.
It isn't funny but it makes me groan.
