Now that it's gone, I realize that after all these 31 years, I never did conclusively know if the website is pronounced suh-LON (like where hair goes to fall) or SAL-on (like the artsy fartsy gathering)?

Aren't they pronounced the same?
Semi-apropros, early '90s SNL used this as a premise to satirize over-the-top haircare commercials. Of all things!

I tried to find a source other than TikTok, c'est la vie.
