Bachelor star’s Easter hell as the Brisbane hair salon she owns is ransacked by criminals who steal ‘thousands of dollars’ including a phone and laptops
Bachelor star Faith Williams has endured a nightmare Easter after the trendy hair salon she owns was ransacked by burglars.
Faith, who featured on Richie Strahan’s season of the Channel 10 dating show in 2016, owns two salons in Brisbane and was horrified to discover on Tuesday that one of them had been broken into over the weekend.
Thousands of dollars was stolen from her Blondee Salon in Newstead and it has left the reality TV star distraught.
The business owner told Daily Mail Australia that she discovered the salon had been robbed when she arrived to work on Tuesday morning after the long weekend.
‘The thieves stole thousands of dollars worth of laptops, equipment, cash, hot tools, sonos speakers, and a lot of products and made a mess of everything,’ she said.

‘They even took the security camera, so we cannot access any footage from the past week.
‘I discovered the break-in this morning when I arrived at 7:30 am and found that the thieves had used a screwdriver to break through the backdoor.
‘We have reported the incident to the police, but they could not confirm when they will be able to investigate the matter, however it should be today [Tuesday].’

Faith added that while the salon closed for the morning, they are now luckily back in business.
Sharing a photo of the salon’s lock that had been tampered with on Instagram, the 33-year-old wrote: ‘Newstead was broken into over the weekend.’
‘They have made a mess, stolen our phone, 4 x laptops and heaps of other stuff,’ she continued.
‘If you need to contact us please reach us on Instagram or email [email protected] for the time being. Thank you’.

Two years ago, she told The Wash: ‘I guess I leveraged off the Bachelor to do my own thing. I have the show to thank for the exposure.
‘I just started being a sole trader, renting a chair. I did that for about a year and a half.
‘Then work just really took off from there and I was just always fully booked, couldn’t take on any new clients, couldn’t grow any more.’
It was from those humble beginnings that she opened the first of her two salons.
