STYLE STATION -- GONE!


This morning we were greeted by black-and-orange FOR RENT signs on the vintage gasoline station on the west side of Dixie Highway (south of Carvel, Hair Harbor, the coin-operated laundry and the fitness center.)
Where was salon owner Bill, our Ellamar Rd. neighbor who cut hair and gave the regional gossip update for just $30? (Sometimes $40.) Where was the free coffee from Costa Rica? The mellow music on the sound system? The disaffected manicurist?
There was no forwarding number at the store, a favorite for Churchill Road residents. Just a hand-written sign explaining that someone is offering a good deal on salon equipment. A call to the old Style Station number picked up at another salon just four blocks north of Southern Boulevard.
It's not quite walking distance from Churchill Road, but appointments are still available with Bill. Carolyn will be there March 4 catching up on things. Bill, formerly at the vintage gas station on Dixie Highway, 561 582 4222.
