McAnally teased this collaboration on April 13, 2026, by hinting at her new client’s identity.
In a video, McAnally hinted at Abraham’s identity with the caption, “Hint: She was 16 when you met her 🖤.” McAnally also displayed matted sections of Abraham’s hair, emphasizing the importance of proper maintenance for k-tips, blonding, and any type of extensions.

Issues Arise During Farrah Abraham’s Visit
In a follow-up video on April 13, 2026, Marseya McAnally warned others, “If Farrah Abraham asks you to do her hair — DONT DO IT. I PROMISE ITS NOT WORTH IT.” She claimed that Abraham left without paying and blocked her before completing the agreed collaboration. Abraham allegedly shared photos without giving credit as promised.
