♦ Downtown Salisbury suffered yet another loss of a mainstay retailer and restaurant as “O.K. Wigs” announced their closing after 42 years at the corner of South Main and West Innes. Since 1974, when the Yang family opened O.K. Wigs, the leading wig shop in Salisbury has serviced thousands of fashion conscious shoppers, teenagers desiring hair extensions for the “goth look”, and persons dwelling near the city’s toxmap wastelands and struggling with hair loss due to chemotherapy and radiation.
“O.K. Wigs” will be missed. Sadly it joins Bellisima (across the Square from O.K. Wigs), Uncle Bucks, Romo’s Pizza and others ending their dreams after the recent harsh shopping season. It is reported the Yangs will attempt to rent their space. Presently O.K. Wigs is having a clearance sale where bargains can be had. Best of luck to the Yangs!
Life goes on in the “Paris of the Piedmont”.
