Truong said the women refused to pay first for their pedicures, about $120 total. But she performed the services anyway. Then, she said, the women asked for manicures. Truong said the two again refused to pay first before attacking her.
“They get mad when I don’t do their nails,” Truong said. She added that they hit her and ran.
Truong filed a report with Gardena police and also gave investigators security footage of the two women.
