Key Points:
- An 18-year-old woman in Bangkok, Thailand, accused a bar manager of shaving her head over an unpaid bill totaling more than $1,800 for over 200 drinks purchased with a fake ID.
- The incident occurred on August 25 when the woman tried to leave without paying, leading to threats and the hair-cutting as a form of settling the debt, according to police and eyewitness reports.
- A video surfaced showing the woman consenting to a "hair purchase contract," but she and her mother later claimed they did not agree to a full head shave or the sharing of the footage online.
- Authorities, including Thailand's Ministry of Social Development and Human Security, are investigating the case, which also involves questions about the woman's attempts to avoid payment at other venues.
- Thai law prohibits selling alcohol to anyone under 20, despite the legal drinking age being 18, and establishments face heavy penalties for serving minors, which may be relevant to this case.
