I was in nicki's barber salon having my barnet chopped as it happened. It goes like this: an 83 year old woman was in there having her hair (and possibly nails) done for her birthday when someone brought her a birthday cake and as she leaned over to blow it out her cape/poncho thing they put on you to do your hair went up because it was covered in hairspray, she has suffered severe burns to her body + head and staff tried to put it out and received burns themselves. She was stretchered outside into an ambulance but the ambulance didn't move for a while, must have been treating her in the back of it. At one point there were 3 ambulances, a fire engine, a fire brigade "incident investigation unit" and a police car. I have photos of them and the area taped. Off which I'll upload when I get home if anyone wants me to. Hope she recovers soon.

They should know you are not permitted any form of naked flame in a salon. Hairspray, chemicals , bleaches all over the place. Very sad indeed.
