A New York City woman's visit to the hair salon ended with her arrest after she allegedly went ballistic because she was unsatisfied with her hair, DNAinfo reported.
Rachel Meyers was at the Century 27 Beauty Salon in downtown Manhattan last Friday afternoon when she began arguing with the stylist over a hair treatment that caused her hair to knot up, witnesses said.
Meyers, a U.S. Postal Service employee, flipped out and began throwing chairs, hair-styling products and a metal curling iron stand that inadvertently struck another customer.
'She was yelling, cursing at the hair stylists, saying they had knotted her hair,' said the 52-year-old customer, whose knee was slashed open during Meyers' rampage.
'I walked over to calm her down initially, but she shooed me away, saying it was the employees' fault and they needed to fix it,' the customer said.
The hairstylists tried to calm the 26-year-old down by suggesting a different treatment from the one that allegedly messed up her hair, according to the injured patron. But that seemed to enrage Meyers, who began throwing shampoo bottles and hair dryers throughout the tiny salon.
The salon's owner told DNAinfo that Meyers, who stopped by the Beaver Street salon on her lunch break, came in with her heir already matted.
'She came in with knotted hair, and laughed about it initially,' owner Favi Ramirez said. 'She was wearing a weave, but took it out, to have her hair conditioned, to have it washed and set.'
Police arrived several minutes after the woman's fit began at around 3 p.m. Meyers was arrested and charged with five misdemeanors, including assault, criminal possession of a weapon and harassment, The Smoking Gun reported. The Manhattan resident is due in court on Sept. 10.
The customer turned down medical treatment for her knee.
Ramirez stressed her staff was doing the best they could to remove the knots from Meyers' hair.
'We were trying to be nice, to squeeze her in between clients to remove the knots, but we weren't working fast enough for her I guess,' Ramirez told DNAinfo.
