Stylist Says She Was Asked To Do Marla Maples' Inauguration Day Hair For Free

By KRISTIN SALAKY Published JANUARY 17, 2017, 1:33 PM EDT

A hair stylist said that she received a vaguely threatening email from a PR contact after she refused to style Donald Trump's ex-wife and their daughter in exchange for "exposure," The Washington Post reported Tuesday.

Freelance stylist Tricia Kelly told the Post that she was contacted by a longtime client with ties to the Trumps about the possibility of styling Marla Maples and Tiffany Trump for the inauguration. After a short back and forth about rates, Maples' assistant reportedly asked Kelly if she would do their hair for free in exchange for "exposure" on Maples' social media accounts.

Kelly told the Post that she declined not only over the lack of payment but also due to a personal policy of not associating herself publicly with people in politics.

After Kelly spoke the Post and the newspaper reached out to Maple's PR team, who declined comment, Kelly said she received a vaguely threatening email from the client who had put her in touch with Maples’ camp in the first place.

In what was the Obama'a bedroom.

I hope the WH cleaning staff make it clear they are not ever mopping up after him and his pissing wives, girlfriends, whatever he calls them.

Can you imagine the expence account for the WH and oval office. Hell, they'll have to raise the debt ceiling just to cover the costs.

And for an occasion thay glorifies tRump?

It would take me about five miliseconds to reach a decision.

And then I would tell them what they could do with Marla's hair.

And remember all of the media attention when the Clintons actually paid to have their hair done? Why pay, when you can stiff the small business owner? I really wish I could say unbelievable, but unfortunately I am not surprised.
