A western Sydney TikTok star has emerged from hiding at her parents' Bankstown rental home after being charged over an alleged violent brawl at a local hair salon.
Boasting more than 508,000 TikTok followers, Yisra El Mayoubed built her online fame through a mix of outfit checks, vlogs, and fiery rants, and is perhaps best known for her signature catchphrase, '2200 Bratha', as well as a viral video celebrating her hometown of Bankstown.
But the influencer has now gained notoriety for a completely different reason after she was charged with affray following an alleged incident at Hair in the Square, in Bankstown Central, with her mother on Sunday afternoon.
Things allegedly went south after El Mayoubed was told she could not be accommodated for a colour treatment so close to the salon's closing time.
Footage circulating online appears to show the social media star yelling and screaming, pulling hair, and allegedly wielding a pot plant before throwing punches at staff. At one point, a salon employee appeared to use a hairdryer to fend off blows.
The wild scene only reached an end when a woman wearing a hi-vis shirt allegedly grabbed El Mayoubed and kicked her out of the salon.
NSW Police were called to Hair in the Square inside Bankstown Central just after 3.15pm on Sunday following reports of an assault.
In a since-deleted TikTok, posted after videos of the alleged incident went viral, the 23-year-old claimed she had acted in self-defence.

She was arrested the following day and charged with affray.
'Officers attached to Bankstown Police Area Command attended and were told two female customers were involved in a physical altercation with a third woman before she left the scene,' NSW Police said in a statement.
When she fronted court on Monday, the former makeup artist broke down in tears as her lawyer detailed her troubled past and revealed she has enrolled in a course to become a mine worker.
She was granted bail under strict conditions, including reporting to police three times per week.
The influencer declined to comment as she left court.
She was previously seen going incognito leaving Bankstown police station reporting for bail
She is no stranger to controversy. In 2022, she went viral after stepping into the boxing ring against fellow TikTok star Persian Mina
On Wednesday morning, we photographed her being picked up from the Bankstown Police Station by a male companion before she was dropped off to her parents' home.
She was seen dressed in all black, wearing tracksuit pants, and a long hooded jacket after she emerged on her parents' driveway.
On Tuesday, her mother was overheard discussing her daughter's weekend fracas during a phone call, telling the person on the other end: 'She's been all over the news.'
