After declining to pay at a South African hairdresser for a braided hairstyle, a woman received a lot of online attention.
A Twitter user released videos of the woman having her hair forcefully shaved off by a furious hairstylist after she refused to pay the bill, bringing attention to the event.
The client, according to the tweep, had asked for the hair style service despite not having the money to pay for it.
In a series of videos, Twitter user @AdvoBarryRoux publicized a highly charged altercation between a customer and a hairstylist.
The catalyst for this explosive encounter was the customer’s refusal to pay for a requested braided hairstyle as she had no money.
The videos show the hairstylist using a razor blade, fully shaving off the woman’s hair and leaving her with a startlingly bald appearance.
Captioning the tweet, the poster wrote:
“This hairdresser cut the hair of a customer who failed to pay after plaiting her hair. She ordered them to do her hair while she knew that she doesn’t have money. This is wrong 💔”
