TikTok star breaks cover outside her parents' western Sydney home after being charged over an alleged wild brawl in a hair salon

By LUCY MANLY, SENIOR NEWS REPORTER, AUSTRALIA Published: 13:17, 24 April 2026 | Updated: 13:17, 24 April 2026 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.
