Considering she was always honest about what happened and there has been a ton of publicity about all the shit she had to go through and the potential harm to her scalp, anyone who did this to themselves because they thought it was a hoax is super stupid, because she at least did it accidentally.

You have SO much more patience with these commenters than me, bless your heart. The Gorilla Glue Girl really hurt some feelings out here.

Don’t bother arguing. A regular Black woman should never be the beneficiary of our celebrity obsessed culture. How dare she! *fist shake*/s

Jeff Bezos gives an interview to Forbes about how he gets 8 hours of a sleep at night and makes 3 decisions a day, nothing ridiculous at all.

Thank you for defending her. The vitriol towards her is ridiculous. I don’t even care if she wants to keep the money from the go fund me. It covers having to deal with all these assholes who can’t spare an ounce of empathy. And yes, everyone else turns their 15 minutes of fame into dollars, why the hell shouldn’t she?…

Kim Kardashian - became famous due to “leaked” sex tape.

Well the important part is, she’s ok now and we all had a laugh and learned a lesson. I think anyway.

Northam should just remove the damn statue and then let them sue him to get it reinstalled. While they are awaiting another court order for more bullshit, he can have it melted down so that there is no longer a statue to argue about. Why? Because quite honestly, thats how they operate. And by they I mean white…

That is right! Support Black colleges, and universities and support our Black professionals.

I saw a short video on YouTube by Daily Gist where it was removed. Seeing a Black surgeon carefully and tenderly attending to a Black woman’s hair and scalp moved me to tears. I was certain her hair was done. He found a way to resolve the problem while preserving what was important to her. It reminded me of the sister…

I mean, right?! I’m so happy for this chick and her head!! And thank God for a doctor that likes a challenge and is Up For It! I truly hope she just babies her hair and scalp with nothing but neutral shampoos and conditioners and a smooth, brushed to the back protective hairstyle to give herself a period of rest and…

Exellent. And guess what? She looks really, really cute with short, natural Black person hair.

You’re much nicer than I would be to the person who doesn’t know where the shift key is or  how to use it.

it’s amazing, a lot of these guys (girls seem strangely smarting at not doing this), try over and over again, once you break your skull once on the pavement that should be a reason to call timeout.

I’d consider it more charity than reward. Things are going to get a lot uglier for her before they get better.

It’s the spray adhesive, like 3M 77, not the water-cure polyurethane adhesive in the bottle. But sure, Krazy Glue will depolymerize in acetone, which this will not.

Glad she’s getting expert, professional help for free. Shout-out to the Ghanaian-American brother helping a sister who couldn’t afford it otherwise. I hope she’s able to forge a new path because she’s damaged her credibility as a teacher of young people.

I don’t think she is getting rewarded. Not in any way I’d like to be anyhow.

Really? A quick google search of “teacher fired for racist comments” implies having a teaching degree does not impart any special wisdom. :)

I really hope so. I hope she doesn’t need skin grafts or something, which would probably mean no more proper follicles. All in all, I think we can be excused for an errant giggle here and there when this first came about. But knowing just how serious and likely life changing this is going to be for her... it’s just…
