March 9, 2009 - PPM - Ra-PUN-zel's Revenge

This week’s PET PEEVE MONDAY (PPM) has bothered me for a while.

It seems there’s nothing quite like the prospect of naming a hairdressing salon to bring out the "punner" in a person. Here are some of the worst I found on the web and in the local strip mall.

Sure they’re funny as you drive past, but what if you had to work at one of these places?

You don’t see medical offices, dental offices, or regular businesses using puns in their names.

Why do hair stylists have a monotony, er monopoly on puns?
