THIS IS A SCAM PLEASE USE YOUR NOODLE
Y’all do realize this reads like a scam, right?
Do you have any proof for this Michaela story?
Because I pulled up the store and went back to before the incident, as something like this would likely have reoccurring issues with aggression in employees, and there's no record of anything like that happening. Plenty of things about uncleanliness and fungus on nails, but no assaults.
There are, however, a lot of one star reviews ever since this started circulating that are obviously written by people who have never been to the shop.
Also, if the police are not paying attention to someone, for something this violent? It makes for a fantastic news article. Journalists love blood in the water. Why are there approximately zero news articles on this? Even a small one?
Why on Google reviews and Yelp has she not posted this herself, and instead has an army of people giving the place one star and posting it instead? The threats make no sense.
This is a place that, at best, had a three star rating before all the one stars kicked in. A common complaint was hygiene, and no one was overly loyal excepting like maybe two people. A place easily forgotten, easily replaced. A place that had at least two instances where fungus grew on the fingernails of the customers who went there, and was on it's way to being investigated by whatever hygiene dept salons use anyways.
Also, if multiple customers were shooed out of the store why is there no reviews bitching about that? Leaving a nail job half done, are you fucking insane? Forget beating up Michaela they'd get obliterated by literally every single customer in that shop, they'd start a literal fight club with no way of stopping it. It does not seem credible to me.
I deal with scams every single day and this would mark every single check box. She's getting money from it, there's no external proof, and it's purely designed to pull at the heart strings.
Contrary to that, provided the person posting in defense of the accused is actually related to them, their story makes very little sense as well, and are most likely covering up some less than savory behaviors.
This entire situation reads like "She was told to fuck off by the person at the desk, who was exceedingly rude and most likely acted bad enough to be worthy of being fired on the spot, Customer then wanted to be compensated and was denied. Customer then really did go to the police, who cannot make a case out of such a thing as it is a civil case and must be settled in a civil court. Customer found out that it was likely she would not be getting compensated via settlement of suing. Customer then proceeded to start a smear campaign with the added bonus of getting money using a story that was most likely to pull at the listeners heart strings."
So like, I'm pretty sure this is just a Karen tryna make a quick buck.
But seriously ask anyone who gets mani and pedis that you know what they would do if the nail salon tried to kick them out for no good reason in the middle of a nail job.
The answer is raise hell.
Like I would deadass deck a bitch if they, for no visibly good reason, tried to kick me out the door mid mani or pedi to walk around lookin like a dumbass.
