Sometime after January 25, 1994 but before February 7, 1994, the exact date and time of which is not currently known to Plaintiff, Plaintiff went to Defendant's business, Mia Testarossa, at the Camp Hill Shopping Mall, 32nd and Trindle Road, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania and requested a permanent wave, which a beautician employed by the Defendant agreed to perform. 4. At all times material and relevant to this litigation the aforesaid beautician, whose name is unknown to Plaintiff, was acting in her capacity as an employee and/or agent of the Defendant and was engaged in said Defendant's business and was within the scope of her employment with Defendant. 5. During the course of providing the permanent wave to Plaintiff's hair, a plastic curling roller flipped out of the hands of the aforesaid beautician and struck Plaintiff in the right eye, causing Plaintiff immediate and severe pain, blurred vision and severe physical injury to her right eye. 6. Plaintiff's injuries and the damages hereinafter related are the direct result of the careless, reckless, negligent and willful manner in which the aforesaid beautician performed the permanent wave upon Plaintiff's hair as follows: (a) failure to maintain adequate control over the plastic curling roller; (b) failure to maintain an adequate grip upon the plastic curling roller; (c) failure to properly shield and protect the Plaintiff's eyes from a known and obvious hazard; 2 .

The Defendant is liable to Plaintiff under the theory of respondeat superior for the aforesaid beautician's negligence, as set forth herein above. B. The Defendant was negligent and reckless by knowingly and intentionally failing to properly select, train and supervise his aforesaid agent and employee. 9. As a direct and proximate result of being struck by the aforesaid plastic curling roller, the Plaintiff has suffered injury to her right eye, and to her vision in that eye, which is serious and permanent. 10. As a result of the aforesaid injury to her right eye, and to the vision in that eye, the Plaintiff has undergone, and in the future will undergo, great mental and physical pain and suffering, and has been, and in the future will be, hindered in the pursuit of her daily activities, and claim is made therefore. 3 11. As a further result of the aforesaid injury to her right eye, and its vision, the Plaintiff has in the past, and may incur in the future, reasonable and necessary medical and rehabilitative costs and expenses for treatment of her aforesaid injury. 12. As a further result of the aforesaid injury to her right eye, and its vision, the Plaintiff has suffered permanent diminution of her ability to enjoy life and life's pleasures.
