Image via Nikita DragunNikita Dragun entered a high-end luxury brand store and was stopped immediately with a real facemask.FAIL OF THE DAY: Nikita Dragun walks in to store using ineffective face shield. Is immediately given actual mask the second she steps into store. pic.twitter.com/41q5ODJ1kv— Def Noodles (@defnoodles) February 20, 2021A shop clerk stopped Nikita at the door to a store with a face mask and clearly asked her to wear it. There was a pause but eventually Nikita agreed and reluctantly put the face mask against her shield. She stays for a very short time after and decides not to wear any masks at all when she leaves the store.And hes been at home this whole time from as far as ive seen mean while I hope he keep this energy with @NikitaDragun 👀👀cause she can’t even wear her mask correctly 😒— waterbendingpiscesboy (@rougegalaxy3) February 20, 2021Holding the face mask against a face shield defeats the purpose of the mask because it is not blocking her mouth or protecting others from the opening above her shield. She chose not to follow the CDC guidelines or care about the shopkeeper that gave her the mask.As is the protocol for these types of stores, she is humored and allowed to stay in as long as she keeps it on her face. It is unclear why Nikita is so defiant when it comes to facemasks. Other TikTokers at least wear it when it is required, so it isn't a general theme of the platform she uses.Please remove other from my sentence. She has NO talent.— 🎲🎲Vegas to Cali ☮♥️🎰🌭🍩 (@VegasToCali1) February 20, 2021Not me walking behind Nikita Dragun at Cerritos Mall and she’s only wearing a face shield, not a mask 😷 🥴— Edgar-chan (@Edvocados) December 27, 2020ARE WE EVEN SURPRISED? Nikita Dragun getting backlash for improperly wearing a face shield without a mask. Typically the face shield goes over a face mask because face shields don’t cover the entire face. pic.twitter.com/0oUfa0mPdW— Def Noodles (@defnoodles) December 27, 2020This is just one of many instances of Nikita Dragun wearing a face shield instead of a mask. It is obvious to many that she will continue to do this kind of thing.Related: Nikita Dragun faces backlash over blackfishing picturesNikita Dragun has a habit of not wearing the correct maskNikita was often wears transparent face shields which are well known not to be useful against COVID. Face shields are normally a piece of a mask or worn over masks and are almost never used by themselves. Face shields are for splattered blood and are used to protect eyes and mouths from projectiles. They were not intended to be used against anything airborne.nikita i love you... but plz stop traveling... and wear a mask.. or a face shield at least... set an example... a good one for once..— Sam 🇳🇬 (@xSamxjiminx) January 4, 2021she wants to be a celebrity so bad god girl u can’t wear the mask for 10 minutes?— KEN DREAMSZ (@kendreamsz) February 20, 2021The last time she was caught doing this, she wasn't even wearing the mask. Nikita was caught holding the minature face shield to her face for a few seconds and putting it down for most of the encounter.One that's a face shield, two she just doesn't care, she just doesn't care isn't it, she just wants her money and fame, I'm hate it here.— Patil Jawharji💭 (@PJawharji) February 9, 2021she definitely calls and asks them to show up where she’s going. no one actually cares that much lmao— al / flop era (@matchalatte0000) February 20, 2021Unless someone takes real action against her or asks her why she is so defiant, it seems unlikely she will change. It is unclear whether she knows that her face shield is ineffective against Coronavirus and not recommended by the CDC.Related: Nikita Dragun pretends to wear a face mask, gets hilariously trolled
