Yes. It was all apparently an April fools joke. She was a bonafide fraud.

Wow!!! Stay away for a few days and look at all that's happened!!! Oh my goodnes!!!
I think this should be an important reminder to us all that we all need to make educated decisions on tips and techniques and use common sense when we read anything online.
The beauty of the internet is such that we can all maintain our privacy and annonomity (sp) but there will be those that will abuse it for their own foolish pleasure. On the internet a person can be anyone they wish to be. I can go over to a baby discussion board and tell them that Windex works just marvelously for clearing up diaper rash on all three of my children b/c I have been using it for years...luckily I am not mean spirited like that and even if I was I dont have that much time on my hands.
Although many of us have been members of this community for a while now and we feel that we 'know' one another we really don't know each other in the true sense of knowing a person.
I am not saying that we shouldn't trust the tips and hair care advice given here but just keep in mind who is posting, what their hair type is and if you and that person share the same hair goals. And after all that just use common sense...if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.
Sorry to be such a pesimist but bottom line...you never know who is posting info online, what their hair looks like, if the so called 'new product' or 'technique' really did work like they said it worked and if that's even them in the picture they posted!!!
Lets just be careful ladies. Most of us have beautiful heads of thick, shiny healthy hair. I would hate to see one of us ruin it b/c of some damn troll and 'her' advice.
