Nail Salon Workers Brutally Assaults Black Women Over Eyebrow Dispute



So before I get into the actual story I first want to say I will be posting a list of black owned nail salons that everyone should support. What these Asian women did was absolutely disgusting and I hope their shop is shut down for good. The owners could've always called the police, but quickly turned to violence.

Surveillance and cellphone footage shows two workers whacking the customers with broomsticks, with one patron staggering toward the door as a worker rained blows on her back.


Bystander Mercy Maduka, who posted the cellphone footage online, wrote Monday on Instagram that the melee began after “the Asian lady in the blue shorts messed up the ladies eyebrow and it was completely bald.”


Salon worker Huiyue Zheng, 32, and customer Christina Thomas, 21, were busted Friday on charges including misdemeanor assault, harassment and menacing.

In a statement, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams called the online video “deeply disturbing and unacceptable” and said he’d discussed it with both the NYPD and Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez.


A Gonzalez spokesman said, “We are in the process of examining all the evidence in this case, including videos that were not available at the time of arraignment, and will evaluate the charges accordingly.”

Tionna Smalls, 33, said she helped organize Monday’s protest because “I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the video.


“You don’t got no respect for this community, then you don’t get no money in this community. That’s it,” Smalls said.


“Shut them down, and they need to be arrested for gang assault. If that was a black salon and that happened, we all would have been locked up.”

I'm not surprised that this happened but I am sadden like many. I will never step foot in this nail salon. When it's all said and done this situation could've been handled differently and more professionally. Businesses from all around the world deal with stuff like this and with the help of a manager the problem is usually resolved.
