I had this message on my youtube channel today.

"Omgosh. I knew I recognized you. I saw your pic in Essence this month. This exact style. Love it"

I don't know which pic she was talking about because it was a montage of photos of my cornrowed frohawk, but If this is true, I want to know.

If any of you get Essence would you mind looking through and seeing if you see pics of my head? Because I had no idea and if it is true I'd like to make sure it isn't being used in someone's ad.

It may just be a pic that looks like the same style. But really if I'm in there, I wanna know.

I sent her a message to ask who was on the COVER of the issue but I haven't heard back from her yet.

The comment was under this video, so it will be one of the pics in this montage.

Thanks for your help.

There was a lady that seemed to have braids/cornrows similar to yours. Let me run upstairs to get my issue.

You're not in the hair issue with Monica. There's a very similar frohawk & some similar cornrowed styles, but none are you.

I have the Kerry Washington issue and I went through the magazine twice. I did not see any of your pictures in it. It is a very natural focused issue and some of the women have styles similar to yours, but they are not you.

Junebug & whirlacurl, Thank you so much. I knew someone here would have the issue and check for me.

I kinda figured it was gonna be some pic that looked similar to me. But I was concerned and mostly wanted to be sure that a company wasn't using my pic for advertising without my permission.

Um, No I don't think I'm aware of that one. Someone asked me to do a blog interview but it isn't supposed to be posted until November and she is going to send me the update when it posts.

Can you please send me the link to the site you're talking about. Thanks. Good lookin' out.

hey mook, if you get a hold of the kerry washington issue, i think the frohawk on p. 68 (the biggest pic) is the one that may have been mistaken for you
