I was getting my hair done in shear sensation when all this went about and shear sensation isn't that far from where the fire started. All i can remember is the fire alarm went off in the hair salon and we went outside and there was smoke coming out from the far apartment from where it originally started and then i saw that 22-year old lady standing on her belcony with no shirt or pants on and she was yelling for help. Then the fire trucks got there keeped it contained for a bit then it got out of control again then reached the other side of the building then the smoke was reaching the other 3 apartments on top. It was one of the scariest things i've ever witnessed and my best friend goes to L.A dance acadamy. I'm lucky the fire didn't get to the hair salon cause i just started getting my hair cut when the fire alarm went off. I will never forget that day. I just feel so bad for all the people that lost there homes and all there belongings.
