This happened right after I had the car detailed and I am wondering if something might have been dislodged.

    maybe or maybe not. you will need someone to scan the car and find the diagnostic trouble codes. could have:
    1) knocked a plug loose under the seat
    2) gotten water or cleaner inside the seatbelt buckle
    3) could be something else

    a reputable detail company will be attentive to your needs; if this was just a detail goober you paid in cash,
    you've learned a valuable lesson!!

    PS: while the SRS light is on, your airbags likely will
    no longer function
