    have you bought the kits? boiught wax and lock peppa and accelerator and a ton pf crap ya never needed? have u spent 15 20 even 70 and up only to find you were sold a lie that dammaged yout dreads?\


    simple solution to pit an end to theyre scam for good
    every person uoi mneet who ever bought wax or any crap they didnt need wether they ised ot or not send it back demanding youyr money back
    explaining exactly why you want your money back

    the goal isnt to put them out of business...let themsell theyre shampoos and (hopefily modified dvd's to obly include backcombg not wax and other crap)
    let them sell t shirts with theyre slogans and drewad beads tams and all that craop
    but
    if all theyre harmfull or useless products are all returned demanding theyre money back how can they go on selling them

    so..any leftover accelerrator lock peppa and wacx you have send it back demanding your money back and include as detsailed an explanation as you want as to why you feel they desserve to pull those producyts from theyre inventories and never sell or promote them again


    every dread yoiu see thsat fell for the scam encourage them to do the same
    how many hundreds of thousands of dollars must they make from screwing over the gulible?

    lets not crush them, bit hurt them bad enough they must change these harmful polocies

    back in the day i unfortunately used a whole tub of wax on my hair, and a whole bottle of shampoo, a whole sprayer full of accelerator and half the lock peppa.... all in the space of a month.... I still feel like such a mug now! I have the rest of the lock peppa to send back, and another bottle of shampoo tho... Its very tempting. I think for it to work we need a generic letter that everyone can use and just print out, sign it and send, make it easy so everyone can do it :)

    dear dread destroyers

    please accept these retuned producrs and refund everything paid for these useless and harmful products and discintinue your practice of selling lies.
    the dread comminuty is becomming awaye of your scam and will not acce\pt any more dreads being harmed by your products. we the consumers hereby humbly reqyest you take the following actions to prevent further boycotting and possible lawsuites
    1: remove wax products from your inventory remove all mention and suggestion of its use in dreads and post a public appology for mislesding milkions of dreadheads and dammsaging and destroying many many dreads.
    2; change your instructionbal dvd's to only show instructions for performing varios methids and disvintinue the lies about natural dreads being wild messy and unkempt, and stop suggesting rubber band usemore then 2 days after any techniques.

    3: discontinue lock peppa lock accelerator and suggest only the use of sea salt and aloe

    4: discontinue the sales of "dread kits' and the idea of insta dreads.
    you may however continue selling flea combes for mackcombing but at a fair price only..

    we the condimers have no issues with you selling shampoos dread beads tams or any dresad relsated products that are not harmfull to dreads
    however the lies about non africanhairtypes needing your products to dread will no longer bse tolerated

    we hope you honnor these requests in a professional manor for your own protection
    dread wax alone is so dangerous to dreads. and the removal of the wax so difucult severe inhyru may occur. if that priduvt is not discontinued imediately its only a matter of time before someones severely burned trryong to clean up the mess your products created and a lawsuite could vbe potentialy devastating to your business.
    our intention is not to p[ut you outr oif business, but to protect the consimer, ther futire dreadheads of the world and provine only true and useful information without regards to profit

    A similar scenario just played out for the people involved in the enzyte scam. Returns and complaints has cost the company in refunds and fines and at least one person jail time. Enzyte only had one product which also made false claims and people waisted their money on it. soaringeagle has the right idea about handling dread product scammers. Twisting their arm enough to make the needed adjustments to stay in business is a good suggestion.

    thats pretty cool, not that many typos, which is good for you dude :p.... I cant really send it though, because i do kind of have "insta dreads" as mine were done via crocheting, which makes them look like dreads straight after....

    well its a guidline to be rewritten in each persons uniwue style and with theyre ownthoufghts added
    i think keepingthe wording as diplomatic as possible instead of directly confrontational may help too
    i kniow the dear dread destroyers line was lil confrontational but it says right iff the bat..you guys fucked up bad.. then thre toibe changes to ok heres a solution that will ultimately benifit you and the community as a whiole

    *EDITED*------ AGAIN!

    Ok, well it maybe slightly altered in some sections but hope it sounds ok!
    Feel free to make more ammendments to my terrible grammar!

    Dear Dread Destroyers

    Please accept these retuned products and refund everything paid for these useless and harmful products and discontinue your practice of selling lies.
    The dread community is becoming aware of your scam and will not accept any more dreads being harmed by your products.
    We the consumers hereby humbly request you take the following actions to prevent further boycotting and possible lawsuits:
    1: Remove wax products from your inventory remove all mention and suggestion of its use in dreads and post a public apology for misleading millions of dreadheads and damaging and destroying many dreads.

    2. Change your instructional DVD’s to only show instructions for performing various methods and discontinue the lies about natural dreads being wild messy and unkempt, and stop suggesting the use of rubber bands for more than 2 days after any techniques.

    3: Discontinue Lock Peppa Lock Accelerator and suggest only the use of sea salt and aloe.

    4: Discontinue the sales of "dread kits' and the idea of instant dreads, you may however continue selling flea comb for backcombing but at a fair price only.

    We the condemners have no issues with you selling shampoos dread beads tams or any dread related products that are not harmful to dreads, however the lies about non African hair types needing your products to dread will no longer be tolerated.

    People achieving the natural look and feel of Dreadlocks, is about a self realisation, a journey to better yourself and to unite yourself with your fellow man, and nature.

    Somewhere amongst the pages upon pages of your products claiming the 'manufacture' of dreads, and the labels listing every chemical known to man, the original aims & journey have been forgotten, I cant believe a company like yourselves have become so lost in the effort to help achieve dreads, when it seems apparent all you are focusing on is profit.

    We hope you honor these requests in a professional manor for your own protection, dread wax alone is so dangerous to dreads, and the removal of the wax so difficult as I believe it includes heating the wax to liquid form or heating above melting point, which is 140 degrees farenheit much above the temperature required to blister the scalp as its usually handling boiling water which could cause severe injury may occur.

    If that product is not discontinued immediately it’s only a matter of time before someone’s severely burned trying to clean up the mess your products created and a lawsuit could be potentially devastating to your business.
    Our intention is not to put you out of business, but to protect the consumer, the future dreadheads of the world and provide only true and useful information without regards to profit.


    Thank you and look forward to your compliance

    much better
    but ui believe it should be heatting the wax to a liquid state
    or heatting the wax above the melting pion to luiquify it, this melting piont being 140 degrees farenheit is also aboive the temp required to scold asnd blister skin

    edit]
    i love what you added to that revidsion
    i ciouldhnt have said it better

    just for fun.. google knottyboy scam and sreadheadhq scam
    this comes up 1st..above theyre pages..thank you skip you know your shit

    dunno if they do or not but i bet if they get 1000 ketys returned with the same lketter and all demanding theyre money back they will at least take noitiuce and reconcider

    ofcouse theres still the option of a class action lawsuite if not

    id like tio see it handled liker a true dread would handle it..diplomaticly
