Bloodcurdling texts Hailey Bieber's hairstylist sent 15 year-old girl behind her mother's back
Ryan Pearl, 37, was taken into custody on Wednesday after the 15-year-old's mother notified authorities of inappropriate messages she found on social media between him and her daughter.
The mother also noticed transactions sent from Pearl to her daughter on her Apple Wallet that led her to call the police on July 26, an arrest report obtained by CBS News stated.
After gaining access to the teen's phone, police discovered a slew of explicit photos and sexual remarks Pearl, who was 'fully aware he was communicating with a minor,' sent to the girl.
At one point, Pearl, who met the teen when he styled her hair two years ago, sent her a nude image of him on a couch and another of him in swim trunks.
After receiving the naked picture of Pearl, the teen responded: 'I am very shy please don't, do U care that I am 15? How old R U? Explain things to me, I only know things from my friends when they talk.'
The teenage girl added: 'You know I am virgin, I've never had sex and I don't know much of it, what if I get pregnant.'
The arrest report further detailed that Pearl and the teen made plans to meet the following day for 'sexual activities with the use of condoms.'
But, when Pearl arrived at the planned location, he was arrested. Detectives then found condoms, a vape, and pink cocaine in his car.
Pearl, a New Jersey native who often traveled between New York and Miami, also told police he asked the teenager if she would be his girlfriend, the report revealed.
The girl's mother, who chose to remain anonymous, described her disgust after discovering what she found on her daughter's phone.
'I knew his intentions were to take advantage of my daughter,' she told NBC6.
'I feel really glad that I realized what his true intentions were, and I think what was most important is how quickly I acted,' she told the outlet.
He was seen in court on Thursday donning an orange prison outfit as he appeared to pray during his bond hearing.
Pearl said he could not afford a lawyer, so he was appointed a public defender.
The judge ordered him to stay away from the victim during the hearing.
He faces charges including contributing to the delinquency of a child, using a computer to seduce a child into engaging in sexual conduct, cocaine possession, traveling to meet a child after using a computer to lure them, and two counts of transmitting harmful content to a minor electronically.
Pearl was released on a $26,000 bond - and was seen running out of jail as Local10 asked him about the charges against him.
According to his online profile, he's worked at IGK Salons and Ollin Miami and is part of the Redken Artistic Ambassador Network.
On his profile for the haircare brand, Pearl has been described as an 'elite colorist trusted by some of the world's most high-profile names, including Hailey Bieber, Rosalía, and Christina Aguilera.'

The page added that he is 'known for his clean, refined take on modern blondes' who 'blends editorial cool with salon precision to set trends from South Beach to New York City.'
On Pearl's TikTok, he's shared work he's done on other A-listers, including Lauren Sánchez Bezos and Jeff Bezos.
'Shave on Jeff, Style on Lauren,' he wrote in a 2022 post alongside an image of the now-married couple.
In a now-deleted Instagram post, Pearl was seen styling actress Sophie Turner's hair. His account has since been deactivated.

Prudential Financial to pay $100 million in US FTC settlement
Aug 6 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Trade Commission reached a $100 million settlement with Prudential Financial (PRU.N), opens new tab to resolve claims a former unit misled consumers into buying healthcare plans that did not provide the coverage it promised. A settlement with Assurance IQ, which Prudential decided to shut down last year, was filed on Wednesday in Seattle federal court. Assurance did not admit or deny wrongdoing. The FTC accused Assurance of targeting consumers in need of low-cost insurance coverage, both online and in telemarketing calls, with representations that its healthcare plans provided comprehensive coverage and essential health benefits of the sort provided under the Affordable Care Act.

Ghislaine Maxwell banned from cushy prison's puppy programme
Ghislaine Maxwell has been banned from playing with puppies at the soft-touch prison she was transferred to last week. The British socialite and former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein was quietly moved from a low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida, to a less stringent minimum-security facility in Bryan, Texas. Described as a 'luxury' jail by Epstein's victims, Federal Prison Camp (FCP) Bryan allows inmates to play with puppies under a partnership with Canine Companions for Independence to train service animals. The programme, which involves prisoners playing with puppies throughout the day and even sleeping with them in their cells, is said to 'boost the inmates' morale, provide them with a sense of responsibility and improve overall behaviour', according to the charity's website. However, Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking underage girls for Epstein, is prohibited from joining the programme owing to the nature of her crimes. 'Maxwell will never be allowed [to] raise or train a Canine Companions service dog puppy,' a spokesman for the programme told The Telegraph. 'Our prison programme policy includes requirements for eligibility, many of which involve the individual's conviction. 'None of our incarcerated volunteers have been convicted of a crime involving children, animals, or of a sexual nature.' FCP Bryan, located 100 miles outside of Houston, is home to 635 inmates, according to the prison's website. Most of its intake is serving time for non-violent offences and white-collar crimes. The prison's high-profile inmates include Elizabeth Holmes – the founder of Theranos, a fraudulent blood-testing company – and Jen Shah, a reality television personality. Ms Maxwell is believed to be the only person detained at the facility for crimes related to sex trafficking. The highly unusual decision to move her without the involvement of the US Marshals service, which usually deals with interstate inmate transport, came after Maxwell spoke with Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general. Over two days of questioning, Mr Blanche quizzed Maxwell about Epstein's links to a string of powerful individuals, including Donald Trump, former president Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, according to multiple reports. Trump under pressure Mr Trump, who on Tuesday said he was not made aware of the move, is under extreme pressure from his supporters to release all government records on Epstein. He faces increasing pressure from supporters and foes alike, amid widespread conspiracy theories that the disgraced financier was killed to stop his 'client list' of powerful associates from being released. Epstein died by suicide in 2019 and did not possess a client list, the DoJ and FBI concluded last month, as they refused to make files public or release any more information. Inmates at FCP Bryan have complained about Ms Maxwell's arrival, with one prisoner saying they are 'disgusted' by the prospect of spending time behind bars alongside a sex offender. Julie Howell, 44, who is serving a one-year sentence for theft, previously told The Telegraph that 'every inmate I've heard from is upset she's here'. 'This facility is supposed to house non-violent offenders,' she said. 'Human trafficking is a violent crime. 'As a mother of a sex-trafficking victim, I'm absolutely disgusted she's in this facility. Regardless of her reasoning, I don't think she belongs here.' FCP Bryan was approached for comment.
