Deshania Ferguson took to Facebook to complain about a notice she said was posted at Rose Salon in Memphis.

“Went to get my nails done on Overton Crossing and Frayser Blvd and this is what they have up ... so rude,” Ferguson wrote.

Rose nails usually charges up to $30 for pedicures, according to local reports.

The salon did not return phone calls, but according to WREG, the owner, Son Nguyen, denied he had posted a sign about overweight customers.
