“This is a good burglary right here,” owner Ron Hilliard said.
Why? Hilliard said that, instead of the crooks ramming a pickup truck through the storefront, they took the more discreet route.
Police said two black males with bandannas and hats broke into the vacant retail space next door, and then cut through the drywall to get into the store.

Hilliard has a theory on why so many beauty supply stores have been hit in the last two weeks.
“It’s back-to-school, a lot of people want long hair,” he said. “A lot of it has to do with going back to school.”
Hilliard said he may stop selling hair extensions, saying it’s not worth keeping them stocked.
