An Idaho beauty salon is facing a boycott after its owner repeatedly branded Donald Trump voters racist, homophobic and misogynists.
Tiffney Prickett, from the salon, Voire, in Coeur d’Alene, took to TikTok after the election to share her thoughts of the president-elect’s voting base.
‘Trump basically gave small men the ability and the courage to be misogynistic and hateful and say s*** like ‘your body, my choice’ and ‘you will bear my child whether you like it or not,” Prickett said in the November 12 video.
The two-minute clip saw the businesswoman rant about ‘the things men say to women are gross,’ adding ‘I don’t know why more men don’t come to the defense of women.’
The 40-year-old mother-of-three has since faced numerous boycotts of her small business, some from 15-year returning clients, who disagree with her attacks.
‘This is me facing the consequences of my own actions,’ she said in a follow up video captioned ‘It’s not politics. It’s HUMAN RIGHTS. And I will gladly suffer the consequences of standing up for what’s right.’
Prickett, dressed in a full-face of makeup, then explained how some of her most loyal clients ‘did not feel comfortable coming to her salon anymore.’
‘I just had a client send her husband into my salon and demand a refund for gift cards, pre-purchased, because of my stance.’

‘If you support a racist, homophobic, misogynist rapist, and you’re okay with those things … because you supported them – then you are in fact, those things.’
In a newer video, posted just last week, Prickett said she’s lost another handful of Trump-supporting clients.
‘They’re dropping like flies. I lost another one of my clients today who clearly was a Trump supporter,’ she said in the more recent video.
‘I would rather go work at Chipotle,’ she added explaining that she feels that would be a better alternative than allowing people to ‘feel comfortable’ with their beliefs in ‘her space.’
Users on ‘X’ have since fired back at the videos.
‘Tiffney Prickett’s Voiage Salon has taken down their website. When does she shut the doors and go to work at McDonald’s?’ another posted.
Another posted: ‘How does she think she’ll be able to ensure that Trump supporters are in ‘her space’ at Chipotle?
‘I hope she sees multiple Trump hats daily at her new job. What’s sad is she’s a mother, so you know she’s teaching her kid to hate ppl who don’t agree with her. Sad.’
Prickett has since taken down her salon’s website as some of her left-leaning followers have urged her to move and relocate her business to ‘a more blue state.’
The Idaho-native isn’t the only small business owner to have faced scrutinizing hate from internet onlookers as earlier this year, as a Memphis florist has received backlash after saying she won’t do business with Trump supporters after his 2024 election win.
Kristin Wolter, 49, made the announcement on the now-private Instagram account for her business, Everbloom Designs.
‘I won’t do business with people who support the president-elect,’ she said in the video, which circulated widely social media beginning last week.
‘It is because I need to create a safe place for me, my staff, and my family.’

Zegler’s strong opinions have sparked backlash in the past , but her latest outburst could derail the release, according to Trump voters who vow to boycott the film
Wolter said she was shocked that her ‘community chose financial concerns and economy over human rights and decency,’ Newsmax host Todd Starnes wrote in a post on X.
Wolter issued a second statement after receiving blowback to her initial comments, according to KWAM News Radio 900. The station posted an announcement on Saturday saying that the shop would be closed the ‘rest of the week due to threats to me and my business.’
‘I knew standing up for what I believe in would have consequences,’ the note read.
‘I am so grateful to those of you that have supported me in this. They are showing their true colors and lack of decency and humanity.’
Huge corporations like Disney are also facing negative consequences for their affiliations against the former President.
Disney is now under mounting pressure to dump Snow White star Rachel Zegler after she lashed out at Americans who voted for Donald Trump.
The 23-year-old Hollywood starlet plays the titular role in the live-action remake, due to be released in March 2025.
Zegler’s strong opinions have sparked backlash in the past, but her latest outburst could derail the release, according to Trump voters who vow to boycott the film.
