Maryland hairstylist Jayla Cunningham has been charged with assault after posting a viral video of her dragging a 15-year-old client over a dispute on payment for a $150 weave service. In the video, Cunningham can be heard yelling at the teen as she drags her by her hoodie.

The family has hired a law firm to represent the 15-year-old in a civil lawsuit against Cunningham. Cunningham is facing a second-degree assault charge and is scheduled to appear in court on April 18. The incident has sparked outrage online, with Cunningham receiving death threats and expressing concerns about her safety. The video has now garnered over 54 million views on social media, bringing attention to the situation and prompting discussions on the treatment of minors in service disputes.
