Not even sure how to respond to this...

 

for only 1900 bucks you can do locks too!

 

exactly.

 

...

 

vig you probably need some maintenance

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa

*breath*

...ahahahahahahahahaha!

 

doesn't your nana do your tips for you, ftw?

 

I lol'd. Just reading that felt like a business contract.... god how do people pay for that. I can understand if you're a hair stylist that lives in a place where locks are popular, and you wanted to learn more... but fuck, $1600?

 

pfffffffffffffffft

 

i pay that kinda money on extra classes and seminars for hair but not for fucking knotty boy ( i dont think id even do that class if it was free lol) hahaha although im doing the sisterlocks seminar next may

 

there are videos for sisterlocks on youtube

 

The term seminar has always activated my BS detector, nothing technical ever had a seminar.

 

If anyone is interested I'll be holding an online seminar and only charging $500. Just pm me.

 

wtf, when I first read this I thought np had made all that up and I was thinking, 'boy has wayyy too much time on his hands to get a few lulz' uhhhuh.

 

OR I was either right the first time and everyone else is playing along and I'm missing the point completely. either way my last post and this one have a major amount of fail on my part in them..

 

Ahoy … And I was thinking the same thing, then I saw how long it was … so then I thought that there is no way that he would have gone to that amount of effort to have a go at Knotty Boy … but somehow I have started thinking again that maybe he could … hahaha

PS …Full Moon tomorrow Lux

 

Yay! Let us all get our "official" loctician license so we can "give" people "official" dreads! And I used to buy into this crap

 

DreadlocksFTW is pleased to announce a once in a lifetime seminar!

For only $1,000 you can learn how to;

Back-comb hair into sections!

Learn how to tell which shampoos are residue free!

Learn how to roll in your sleep to help your hair lock up!

Learn how to eat and breath!

And much, much more!

 

gotta commend their heartlessly machiavellian business practices, bet those fools are loaded.
