A knock-down, drag-out fight at a nail salon inside a Gwinnett County Walmart sent a teenage bystander to the emergency room with shattered teeth and a sliced chin.

Channel 2 Action News reported that the melee took place Monday inside Regal Nails at the Walmart on Centerville Highway outside Snellville.

The station reported that witnesses said a woman walked into the salon, became upset with the pricing, and spent the next half hour cursing at workers and other customers.

The brawl broke out after the children of that woman clashed with the child of another customer.

"And from there, it was off the chain," a witness told Channel 2. "Bowls were flying, glass was flying, hair was flying, braids was flying, weaves was flying, everything was flying."

One of those flying bowls, a porcelain soaking bowl, hit Ashley Corbett, 17, in the face as she waited to get her nails done.

"As I headed toward her, all I could see was just blood," Corbett's mother, Gail Dudley, told Channel 2. "She opened her mouth and her teeth were shattered."

According to witnesses, the woman who threw the bowl that struck Corbett ran from the store. Police are still looking for the woman.
