Organic Hair Salon, an infamous hair salon located at Boon Lay Shopping Centre, is back in the headlines once again for cheating their customers.
A customer shared that he saw their $2 haircut banner but was later charged $25 after his haircut.
He asked them about the $2 banner and why they are now charging him $25.
The salon told him that the $2 is only for “cutting botak”.
LTA officers were seen “camping” at park connector networks armed with a speed gun to measure the speed of cyclists on the PCN.
They were catching anyone who were speeding.
It is unclear where the photo was taken.

A video emerged online showing a man carrying a huge plate of suckling pig that he intended to use as an offering for prayers.
He was seen leaving what appears to be his home with the pig, before a man attempted to snatch the pig from him.
He then backed off and retreated into the home, before re-emerging out again with the pig.
This time the man wrestled the pig from him, leaving the poor man on the floor as some aunties chased after the robber.
The mean appeared to have succeeded in robbing the man and looked to have gotten away.
The incident happened in Vietnam.

A netizen took to Facebook to share how she is happy about the Covid restrictions, because she doesn’t need to “waste time” visiting her grandmother out of obligation.
She shared that she feels “a little guilty” but still resents her because her father is not her grandmother’s favourite son.
Here is the full story:
“My grandma is 85 years old. My grandpa has passed on a long time ago.
Unlike many other people with heartfelt stories about their grandma, my grandma is not close to me at all.
She has many grandchildren (more than 20). When i was a kid, my mom said she did not want to take care of me/my siblings but chose to take care of my other cousins. My mom had to quit her job and take care of us full time. Not sure why, but probably cause my dad was not the favourite son. It was pretty obvious that the other son was her favourite.
As i grew up, my grandma has never asked me about my school or grades or anything at all. Basically we never talked. Even when i visit her I don’t remember having any conversation with her. I would usually greet her and ask her how is she, but that’s it. She has been this way towards me and all my siblings. All these while, she took in some of my cousins and raised them (they stayed at her place on weekdays, and went back to their parent’s place on the weekends).
Writing up all the above, i feel sad. But that’s just how it is.
I got married last year, and although she was unwell, she attended my ROM. I have not seen her since then due to covid restrictions etc. To be honest, i was happy about the covid restrictions so I don’t need to waste time to visit her only just out of obligation, not even love.
My parents did visit her regularly and they mentioned she asked about me. She also gave her regards to me. This happened multiple times throughout the year. (It has never happened before).
Suddenly i feel a little guilty for not visiting her. Of course a small part of me wishes to have a loving grandma while growing up and all, but it’s too late for that. I still resent her for how she treated my family (she also did not treat my parents well).
Should i visit her (and it will just be awkward and silent) or should I just ignore this and move on with my life?”
Cheong Yong Shen, 56-years-old, pleaded guilty on 19 August to one count of appearing nude in public, as well as two counts of theft.
Three other charges related to theft, as well as another charge of appearing nude in public, will be considered during sentencing.
On 19 March, Cheong had entered the Geylang Serai Neighbourhood Police Post, which was an unmanned post with computer terminals for the public to “self service”.
He was wearing a pair of shorts (only the pair of shorts) that he later took off, stripping naked before rubbing his groin while facing the glass door.
He was later identified by the police and questioned, and he subsequently admitted to his crimes.
In a separate incident on 12 July, he stole a bra from a Uniqlo outlet at Paya Lebar Quarter mall.
He removed the price tag and kept the bra in his bag.
A staff member then followed him as he left the outlet after recognising him from two other times he patronised the shop.
The staff member then confronted him and he admitted to stealing the bra.
The case will resume in court on 2 September.

A picture of a cake has been making its rounds on Facebook.
The cake was apparently created in a 11B theme to celebrate the man’s birthday and his operational ready date (ORD).
The 11B is an identity card given to all enlistees and military personnels in Singapore in exchange for their Pink IC when they first join the Armed Forces.
After they complete their service, they would be given back their Pink IC.

A video has been circulating on social media after witnessing many passengers putting on personal protective equipment before a flight that is bound for Vietnam.
It is mandatory for visitors to Vietnam to wear safety attire when they arrived.
A man has taken to social media to ask if any netizens have been rejected for dining in even after being vaccinated past 14 days.
He claims that he tried to go to an undisclosed McDonald’s outlet to dine in today (19 August) but was rejected by the staff there even though he has shown them his vaccination report.
He took his second jab of the Sinovac vaccine on 4 August 2021, and it has been more than 14 days past meaning that he should be able to dine in.
Netizens have commented that some eateries only take your TraceTogether app’s details and valid and not other forms of documentation and told him to wait till TraceTogether reflects his vaccination status.
