Powder find left Tracy ‘in shock’
A TANNING salon owner says she was “left in shock” after finding a bag of white powder on her premises.
Tracy Williams, who runs the Tan2-mission salon in Stapleford, was surprised to find a small bag containing white powder on Friday morning.
Ms Williams, 52, posted a picture of the illicit material online.
She said: “It is definitely the most shocking thing I have ever found in my salon.
“I have never come across anything like that.
“We have had customers who had weed in their pockets and I asked them to take it out of the shop because I do not tolerate anything like that.
“With the heat inside the salon it makes it smell like we have a grow on.”
Ms Williams, who opened her salon in Derby Road just before the first national lockdown started in February last year, added: “I have disposed of it and then made a public notice on Facebook, so hopefully clients will read it and it will not happen again.
“I was in two minds whether to make it but I thought that this is something that I do not want in my salon.
“That could have been blown under some sunbed and a customer could have found it at a later date – it is just not something I want here.”
The salon owner said she had not contacted the police about the incident.
She posted her message about the find on the Tan-2-mission salon’s page.
It said: “Polite notice: we find some strange things in our rooms, but can we ask that you do not bring this sort of stuff into either of my salons.
“We have a no drugs on our premises policy.
“This has been disposed of. Thank you.”
