JONKOPING, Sweden, March 12 (UPI) -- A dissatisfied customer at a Swedish hair salon faces criminal charges for allegedly biting the proprietor.

The owner told police that the woman knocked down a shelf in an angry rampage, Aftonbladet reported. She faces charges of criminal damage and assault.

The woman, 42, had her hair cut Wednesday at the salon in Jonkoping. Police reports said that she told employees she did not like the cut before leaving the store and then returned a short time later, demanding a refund.

When her request was refused, she allegedly became violent.

The owner of the salon was taken to a hospital to be treated for his injuries.

Police said that the woman was sober and not under the influence of drugs.
