LIFE.

I asked God to protect me

from my enemies…

 

I started losing friends.

TAMIKKO ACCESSORIES 2008

*SIDEBAR*

When this look was first circulated, everyone knew it was me.

Someone designed a wig based on my image & named it after me.

  

it’s the entire structure of the EDIT.

Jamie Nelson and her team along with myself , created

a look in a specific time period that helped it become virally  ICONIC.


So much so, Rehab online magazine used it as their COVER.

THIS IS MY ACTUAL HAIR…IT WAS TRIMMED AND SHAPED ON SITE FOR

THIS SHOOT, NOT A NEW CONCEPT, BUT 4 URBAN & EVERYTHING I WAS

SEEING…YES, IT WAS…WHY I DID IT. WAS TRYING TO BRIDGE URBAN WITH

COUTURE CONCEPTS AT THE TIME….BECAUSE THAT DID NOT EXIST!

AT LEAST, NOT COMMERCIALLY OR POP CULTURALLY IN ANY WAY. TO GET

THIS LOOK, YOU SPECIFICALLY HAVE TO GET A WIG, THAT WAS, LIKE I SAID,

DESIGNED AND ORIGINALLY NAMED AFTER…..ME.

*Hair do, not the issue, it was inspired itself by the artist who shaped it. It’s

the EDIT .
