MAR VISTA, LOS ANGELES: Celebrity hairstylist and Glass Hair salon owner Richard Glass spoke about his last meeting with late actress Anne Heche before she crashed into a house with her car. Glass appeared to be furious at people who blamed him and questioned him for his involvement in Heche's tragic death. Glass also felt guilty for Heche's sudden unfortunate death and lamented over her loss.
On the day Heche's car crashed into a Mar Vista home, a little before 11 am on August 5, Heche visited Glass Hair to buy a wig. According to Glass, Heche was acting like “a sweet little girl” as she bought a bright red wig at Glass Hair Design in Venice salon, Los Angeles Times reported. However, according to the celebrity hair and makeup artist, Heche “wasn’t speaking in cursive” when she stopped at his salon around 10.35 am.

According to Glass, Heche immediately noticed some wigs arranged on a shelf above his shampoo area, ranging in color from natural to shocking pink and solid white, and inquired about a blue one. When Glass said that one was already taken, Heche said she'd get a bright red wig instead.
According to the salon owner, he told Heche that the red wig hadn't been cut, styled, or even washed yet, but the 53-year-old didn't care. He recognized her by the time he went to call her, and they proceeded to take a number of selfies together. He shared a photo of the two of them, complete with a wig, on his Instagram account.
However, the moment Heche and Glass's picture surfaced on the internet, people started accusing Glass of providing Heche with drugs and fentanyl. Glass told TMZ that he can't believe people thought he supplied Heche with cocaine and fentanyl, which were found in her system after the crash. Glass claimed that he has never used drugs and that those who accuse him are simply malicious.
Glass also stated that he believes a higher power may have sent Heche to his salon in order for him to save her life. He is clearly beating himself up for something he had no control over, but he feels it so strongly in his mind that it's real.
After being severely burned and injured, the actress was declared brain dead on August 12. According to her agent, who spoke to TMZ, the 53-year-old star's heartbeat was being maintained to preserve her body organs for donation.
