The botched nail date has sparked controversy on social media.
Halle Bailey is clearing the air on some drama associated with the singer. In regards to her negative experience at a nail salon in California, the “Little Mermaid” star shared her story on social media.
The controversy gained attention after Bailey’s boyfriend, rapper and content creator DDG, wrote a deleted post to X about the “racist” salon after they rudely spoke to his partner.
Telling his fans that the nail salon kicked Bailey out after a heated conversation about appointment times for her and her sister, fellow singer Chloe, DGG also encouraged the public to leave Perfect Nails a “1 Star” review.
“This place is racist toward Black people,” shared the Michigan native. “They kicked my girlfriend out while doing her nails…Please give them 1 star…They don’t deserve business.”
After multiple negative reviews were posted to the business’ Yelp page, the escalating situation prompted the younger Bailey sister to explain more about what happened.
Bailey detailed how she and her sister had a nail date, but an issue with her sister arriving late, in addition to the confusion surrounding the appointment time, led to the verbal altercation.
“I’m slowly but surely starting to get a little frustrated,” the Glamour Woman of the Year explains after detailing the employee speaking harshly to her. “I have really brought them a lot of customers, and I can’t believe that they’re acting this way over nine minutes.”
Once Chloe arrived, the musical duo left the property after the “Treat Me” songstress was informed that her services were canceled due to the tardiness. However, her younger sister remained adamant that the treatment was unwarranted, especially given her loyalty.
“I just told her that was unacceptable and rude because I have been a loyal customer,” continued the actress. With the incident gaining more traction, as the nail salon continues to receive negative reviews, it is evident that the Bailey sisters are not the ones to be played with.
