Shrunken Head Boutique's storefront is reopened and remodeled after flooding last December. After a sprinkler system malfunctioned and flooded the shop in December, Shrunken Head Boutique closed for refurbishment. Four months later, the store reopened during UNC’s class of 2022 graduation week. All of the store's merchandise and appliances were waterlogged. (Daily Tar Heel)
