Or should we say Hurrrrr Galleria? The new local beauty superstore hired Megan Thee Stallion hairstylist/ShadeRoom fan-fave Jonathan Wright to hawk their “42 flavors of bootylicious hurrr” prior to their grand opening in May and through whatever mystical algorithmic alchemy, our social media feeds would not stop serving it up. We were lulled into a trance by Jonathan’s delightful accent (both “hair” and “here” pronounced “hurr”) and the cadence of exhortations like “Stop goin’ to that girl who sell you that bullshit hurr!” and “Why y’all walking ’round lookin booboo?” We’re not sure how he filmed these spots considering he’s apparently been incarcerated since March, but we never question a blessing. Stop playing! 5300 Silver Star Road, instagram.com/hairgalleria_orlando

Orange Ave., Winter Park, bodystreet.us
