Hold on tight : Thieves attacking women with long hair

No comments :

According to reports, having long hair can make you a target for criminals in the Venezuelan coastal city of Maracaibo.

 These criminals now target young women who have long hairs with scissors, and before you know what's happening, your hair is gone.

 A Maracaibo resident Egmari Villarreal (pictured above left) explains: "You have to see it to believe it.

 We're not going to be able to have long hair anymore. As a woman, this is something traumatic.

 It's happening downtown, at the beach or at the mall, where you find a lot of young women.

 The thieves grab them by the hair, pull out some scissors and cut their hair. Then they sell it at beauty or hair salons."
 
Resident Sarai Madrid said she's seen it throughout the city.

 "It's happening downtown, at the beach or at the mall, where you find a lot of young women," she told Panorama. "The thieves grab them by the hair, pull out some scissors and cut their hair.

 Then they sell it at beauty or hair salons." Mariana Rodriguez told CNN affiliate Globovision, that she was walking through a popular mall when she saw two women coming toward her.

 "I thought they were going to steal my cell phone, because I had it in my hand at the time, but they took out scissors," she said.

 "They did not give me a chance to think or to run or anything. And when I looked, I no longer had any hair."

Hair stylist Israel Rodriguez told Caracol that synthetic hair costs anywhere from $40 to $160, depending on its quality. But natural hair can cost more than $500, he said.
 ''Just imagine, I'll strongly advice every lady out there to hold onto her hair tightly, it now worth it's weight in gold''.hmmmmm', shocking really.
