Who does your hair?



My wife pointed out the name of this local salon near our house. How would you say it?

Ha ha ha! That's pretty funny!

You should call them and see how they answer the phone. Then you won't pronounce it incorrectly!!

I believe its Pee-nya's (think spanish n with a tilda). But its funnier the other way. ;-)

for a different kind of girl said...

The same way I'd say Dick's Barber Shop.

pina rhymes with tina?

took me a few times saying it out loud...maybe it helps them get business...I once went to a restaurant (not by choice) with the name of "Eat Here and Get Gas"...it's a gimmick...

Okay, so I was driving in the car with my husband, thinking about this, and I was going to ask him how he would pronounce it, and I got it. Took me hours! Argh!!

im not sure if already know the story to the name. But my theory is, it reads pee-nas, pinas, which is the short
term 4 Pilipinas. Or otherwise known as the Philippines.
