Sara’s Salon
A unisex salon in three of Rockstar's own renders: a manicure in progress inside, a wash basin and a hood dryer at the back, and on the front window, in red, SARA'S over UNISEX SALON.
What the render shows
The customer fills the left of the frame: square dark sunglasses, hair tied back with one curl loose, and a high-necked top printed in black and white stripes with yellow suns and grey spheres over it. Her hand rests on the counter and a second pair of hands is working on her nails.
Behind her the wall is hung with a grid of framed photographs, portraits by the look of them, set close together. Further back a woman with bright green hair stands looking at her phone, and past her are teal salon chairs against a pink wall.
The tops of two small bottles stand out of focus at the bottom left of the crop. Everything in it says salon: chairs, a wall of portraits and a manicure in progress.
The first render of the set is taken outside, and the front window carries the name in red: SARA’S over UNISEX SALON, each word opening on a large capital. Under that a red band holds a smaller line that does not come apart, then a phone number whose first group reads 786, a Miami-Dade area code, and lower down a list of services, of which the middle column reads Blow Dry, Cut and Styling. A pink silhouette of a woman’s head in profile fills the left of the glass, with bars behind it.
The second render shows the back of the salon: a white wash basin on the wall, a hood dryer on a stand, a grey folding chair and a woman with bright blue hair and tattooed arms looking at her phone. Basin and dryer are hair equipment, so with the window they settle what the manicure render only suggested: this is a hair salon as well as a nail bar. Rockstar’s product page says as much, listing the salon among the Ultimate Edition’s items: Get signature salon styles for both Jason and Lucia, including facial hair for Jason and makeup and nails for Lucia. Only open for business with the Ultimate Edition.
Name ground: Sara’s Salon is Rockstar’s file name for the set, Sara’s Unisex Salon its name for the place on its product page, and the window in the first render carries the name in the picture as well, as SARA’S UNISEX SALON. Until 24 September 2026 this page said the name appeared in none of the three renders; two of the three had not been looked at.
How to recognise it
- SARA'S over UNISEX SALON in red on the front window
- A pink silhouette of a woman's head on the glass, bars behind it
- A grid of framed portraits close-set on the back wall
- Teal salon chairs against a pink wall
- A wash basin and a hood dryer at the back
- A manicure in progress at the counter, not at a separate table

These figures come from the dataset, not from the prose above. We measure everything and claim what counts. How we work
What we still do not know
- Who Sara is.
- What a player without the Ultimate Edition finds at the door. Rockstar says the salon is only open for business with that edition.
- What the smaller line in the red band says.
- Where it stands.
