A small business owner is begging whoever stole her mobile hair salon over the weekend in northwest Houston to return it.
Dee Foster, owner of Miss Dee and Friends Hair Taxi, specializes in cuts for children and adults with disabilities and special needs.
She told ABC13 that she first started in 2017, and in 2020, she was able to save up and make her dream a reality: owning her own tiny mobile salon.
“They did not steal just from me. My kids mean so much,” Foster said.
Through tears, Foster told ABC13 she stored her hair taxi trailer at a storage facility on Saturday, and on Monday morning, it was gone.
“They banged up the trailer because my fender is on the side,” Foster said.
A piece of her trailer and a busted out gate are what’s left of her hair taxi at the facility near I-10 in northwest Houston.
“They stole from a community, ” Foster said. “There are kids that won’t get a haircut if I don’t have (my trailer) and I don’t have it. I’m so overwhelming distraught about it, and I just don’t understand why.”
She said she’s a single mom, and this is her livelihood. Foster isn’t sure why someone would want to steal a place so special to her and to the children she helps
“The valuable part of it all is the memories,” Foster said. She told Eyewitness News that police are looking into it, and the storage facility has video, which ABC13 has been unable to obtain.
