Real Housewives of Atlanta regular and stylist Derek J found himself in a scary situation when he tried to fix the work of a rival stylist, who showed up to his salon wielding a gun.
Singer Keisha Cole's sister, Neffe Pugh, showed up at Atlanta's J Spot Salon to have her bad hair fixed after a stylist identified as Corwin had done a poor job.
"Corwin put a lace front unit on her hair — a glued down wig — and we couldn't get it off," Derek J told the MailOnline.
"Her hair was messed up to the point we didn't know what to do. She was just trying to fix what was going on."
According to Derek J, Corwin called his salon when he found out he had a rogue client and thought they had settled the issue — but four hours later Corwin turned up to the salon toting a gun.
"My receptionist came around and said, 'There's a guy here to see you, he's really upset,'" Derek J, who along with The Real Housewives of Atlanta also appeared on Chris Rock's documentary Good Hair, said.
"He walks away and comes back with a gun, and then he points the gun to the ground."
Corwin fired a shot at the hardwood floor, which is evidenced in the video footage below by WSB TV2 in Atlanta.
"I'm upset because my floor is messed up now. This is something that shouldn't have happened," Derek J said.
"People say bad things about me all the time, but you can't go off and try to pull a gun on somebody. It's a ridiculous situation."
