I saw some ish today......LAWD!!!!
I'm at Starbucks and I've seen this asst manager before. It's a black woman mid 20's and normally she's wearing a busted extra shiny synthetic weave or a type 1 ponytail with crispy type 4 hair pulled back into it.
Today, she was wearing her sbux hat and from far away in line, I was like damn why are her edges gray? When I got closer it looked like there was uncooked rice caked onto her sideburns and I was seriously thinking it was lice.
I knew I couldn't be seeing what I thought I was seeing so I was like, let me get to the head of the line so I can see what this is but bump what ya heard, I wasn't orderin nothin.
Ole girl had a lacefront wig on and what I was seeing on her sideburns was caked on white glue that had dried in the hair.
BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE.
I'm still a little queasy but I figured I stood in that long *** line I might as well still get the coffee. Since she's on the register and not making the coffee I ain't gotta worry about drinking any dried glue.
So I look ole girl in the face when placing my order and peeped the rest of the LF application. This is when I notice that she's got a line going across her forehead. She did not cut the lace in the front of the wig. She glued it on so that it was half way down her forehead and put foundation over it to match it to her complexion. But she didn't have foundation anywhere else on her face so her forehead looked like there was moist putty on it and the rest of her face was dry.
While I was waiting on my coffee I was having an internal debate as to whether I should ask to speak to her privately and let her know what was up. But at the same time, I'm nowhere near being a LF expert so I wouldn't even be able to recommend a clear glue or even how to cut the lace down. I know that if I was feeling sick looking at her sideburns then the folks who didn't know what was going on her head had to be thinking that she's just dirty and that it was just some mutant negroid form of dandruff going on in her sideburns. Next thing you know, the black folk unemployment rate is up cuz of a jacked up lacefront application.
I tried to get ole girls attention but she stayed busy on the register. I waited a bit and it just wasn't looking like I was going to be able to speak to her so I left.
I'm normally anti-taking random people in the streets pictures, but if there had been anyway for me to get a pic of this application I would've. It really had to be seen to be believed. There is nothing natural about a line across your forehead and crumbly glue bits at the temples !!!!! NOTHING!!!!
erplexed They didn't even use photoshop. Cheap AND lazy.
I feel bad for ol' girl. Maybe she was following the instructions that came with it or improvising using pics like the ones in the Janet ads. I'm just sorry CP didn't get the chance to help her out.
