You rang? SMH @ me for not being on this case from the beginning
And I hope she (lady w/the blog) doesn't shut her blog down or perm her hair behind this madness.
Curlycopia/cb3 already said that she is still natural. Obviously due to the recent events she is feeling better.

I am, thanks! I promised I would stay away from forums after the latest fiasco, but I must respond.
Crazy and delusional? I don't think so. I am completely sane. I stepped away from my blog because it was starting to effect my personal life. And, after paying my lawyer $175/hr (and I was there an entire morning) to look over all of the documents and correspondence, it was time for me to politely bow out. It was not worth the threatening phone calls, the ugly tweets, the comments left on my blog, and the relentless mobs of hate emails I started to receive.
Yes, I am still natural and yes I did consider getting a relaxer. After stepping away from the drama, I realized that it was not worth it because I do love my natural hair.
I hope this clears everything up. Think what you may, I know I made the right decision for me.
I am also an old school hair board girl. I was thinking about the BHM weave scandal after reading about the constant mounting ENSO gate.
Bottom line she was able to do this all on the strength of her typing skills. Maybe a handful of folks on the boards had actually met her in person or knew her IRL. The majority (US and Foreign posters alike) didnt know here and sent her money. All because someone became popular on a messageboard and gave out "tips and tricks". And she seemed nice. A few bible phrases in her signature and some cute profile pics with her weave fried dyed and laid to the side...that's all it took.

I said deranged. I mean come on. What was relaxing your hair gonna do, distance you from the community? Then what? Why would you let something effect you so much you'd relax because of it. I just don't get it. I didn't know you were getting phone calls and don't see how but this is the internet so some things should be expected. People are crazy in the virtual world which is why we should be a lot mire careful when we play in it. Some things are to be expected though, I know some aren't as strong as me when it comes to letting the things people say on here roll right off.
Some people on YT crack, they start making videos addressing haters, when the best thing you can do is ignore. This tatic has worked for me so many times in real life. People start sending you pics of your house or kids, then its time to worry and take the next step. You can call me dumb, ugly, tell me you hate me to the max and want nothing but the worst for me all day. I'ma still sleep like a baby with a crooked smile, drool coming out the side, with a little fart bubble of relief. That's just me though.
Anyways a lot of people told you the letter was bull. I can understand wanting to look into it further,but if a lawyer was going to break you, I would have got a free consultation somewhere first. Especially since it all worked in your favor at the end (fake law firm, generic C&D letter, etc)
Anyways I was just stating my opinion sorry if it offended anyone.
Sent from my LG-LW690 using LG-LW690
Phone calls? This all started because I ordered from the company, they have all of my personal information. Likewise, I posted (from my personal Facebook page) on their Facebook page where I addressed one of their comments. By doing that I put all of my personal info out there, I regret it.

At This Point I Would Be Surprised If MTM Made Any Comment To Deny Or Confirm That She Owns This Company. She'll Resurface With A New Comany And Gig. She'll Continue On Like Nothing Is Going On And Probably Already Has Another Company Lined Up And Registered.
I ain't saying another word on this subject at hand, but I will say this-and this is why I believe it is FOOLISH to still be ordering from this company after all of this crap went down.
"Oh but the products make my hair feel so good. I'm going to order anyway and pray to Jesus as I hit the send button"
Ninja please. Get you some shea butter and have a seat. Putting your financial health at risk over some doggone hair products! It ain't that serious....
I'm out.

I was under the impression she ordered before all of this went down. Like, wasn't she the one who outed MTM/NC in the first place??
