TEEN Mom 2 star Briana DeJesus is coming under fire once again for how she’s handling the coronavirus pandemic.
The 25-year-old recently reopened her Florida salon, and fans are not too happy about the decision, calling out the reality star for not taking the crisis “seriously.”
She works at Orlando’s Le Beautè Bar, which offers services for eyebrow microshading, lash extensions, teeth whitening, facials and body waxing and contouring.
On Wednesday, Briana — mom to Nova, 8, and Stella, 2 — shared on Instagram she was “back at the shop” and returning to work, despite the ongoing COVID-19 crisis.
Reddit users slammed her decision, with one writing, “Jesus Christ she doesn’t take pandemics seriously,” and another agreeing, saying, “I can’t think of a single thing she takes seriously.”
A third echoed the same sentiment: “She hasn’t taken it seriously since day 1, not surprised.”
Others called out that Briana’s family is in the high risk category, should they contract the disease.
One of the concerned Reddit users said: “I get she might need to make money now if Teen Mom isn’t filming and she’s not working her regular job.
“But can’t she stick with the lashes/whatever else she does without literally doing something that requires someone’s mouth to be hanging open?
“Her mom has Lupus and Stella has a heart condition!! It’s just infuriating to me.”
Briana did have some Teen Mom fans trying to back her up, though, saying that Florida is in the process of reopening business in various phases.
The salon also shared how it plans to keep their customers healthy.
According to their Instagram, the shop rules that must be followed include: “No additional guests allowed, must wear a mask in the building, please be on time [as] our sanitizing schedules must be met, if you don’t feel well we can reschedule.”
Prior to getting back to work, Briana was slammed for taking her daughters to the beach during the pandemic, especially staying there for a week.

Her followers were angered she chose to take her children despite warnings to stay home, with one calling it “the dumbest idea right now” and “very irresponsible.”
The hate comments only continued when Briana revealed she’d gotten her 8-year-old a snake as a pet, which has already bitten her.
She later explained it was Nova’s dad, Devoin Austin II, who had bought the snake, writing on her Instagram Stories: "Can't believe her dad gave in and got her snake. Ima beat his a**."
