The incident happened at a workshop conducted by Javed Habib in Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh.
It prompted National Commission for Women (NCW) to take action against the hairstylist. The NCW has asked the UP Police to investigate the veracity of the video clip that shows Habib spitting on a woman's head while styling her hair.
“@NCWIndia has taken cognizance of the incident. Chairperson @sharmarekha has written to @dgpup to immediately investigate the veracity of this viral video and take appropriate action," NCW’s post read. It further added, "The action taken must be apprised to the Commission at the earliest."

Another video went viral on social media showing the woman recounting the incident. Pooja Gupta said that Javed Habib invited her to the stage for a haircut. He said if there is no water, you can use your saliva. Disgusted with the incident, the woman - who also owns a beauty parlour herself - added that from now onwards she will opt for a street-side barber for a haircut but will never go to Habib.
