Lloyd’s New Head Tattoo Is Pretty….So, Does That Make It Okay?

Who’s more confused than Lloyd‘s scalp? Nobody.
Within the past 8 months, Lloyd’s scalp has flown free with long frizzy fabio curls. It has been bound and stretched with tiny braids. It has been trimmed down to a cushy carpet. And now…it’s been partially shaved down and injected with ink. Lots of it!
In promotion of his new King of Hearts album (iTunes link), Lloyd tattooed and enormous guns and roses motif on his head down in New Orleans. To be fair…in comparison to most of the head and face tattoos that we’ve seen in hip hop circles, Lloyd’s is actually not that horrible.
But are we getting to the point where above the neck tattoos will actual get mainstream? I used to think neck tatts were extreme, but now…not so much. Every barista at the local espresso bar has one. (male and female) Maybe soon, a face tatt will no longer represent: ‘hello, I am either an ax murderers, boardwalk entertainer, or a runway fashion model.’
UPDATE: Miguel tweeted “Imitation is the Highest form of Flattery. Shout to LLoyd.” rawr! cat scratch!

Yeah well Miguel hasn’t taken to kindly to the cut. He tweeted:
Imitation is the Highest form of Flattery. Shout to LLoyd.

Damn. Wish I didn’t know what to do with myself.

Shouldn’t Miguel worry about not busting his ass on stage (for the 4th or 5th time) and singing on key

Please don’t let this become another one of those “Cassie shaved-cat” trends, PLEASE! I just can’t…

he look like an ese now lol, aye but you know the good thing bout havin your head tatted is that all you gotta do is grow your hair out a little to cover it up lol

He’s more like a rebellious Sammy Davis Jr. Can’t believe Miguel said that though. That’s like Big Daddy Kane saying somebody took his style, it’s just hair. Lloyd isn’t falling off the stage and doesn’t have mannerism where we question if he’s “how you doing?” They both have an upcoming show together, this should be interesting “see him in the streets” r & beef lol.

I was hoping he’d grow his hair a lil more into a jeri curl cuz he kinda looks like Michael already
July 6th, 2011 at 7:19 pm
Tatoo or not, biter or not, Lloyd has never been and never will be played in my car. Miguel on the other hand, that’s a different story.
July 6th, 2011 at 10:04 pm
Michael? Is that the name the main Gremlin with the little bit of hair in the front?

There are many theories as to why, and just as many solutions coming out to fight this problem.
If you are looking for the best hair regrowth products, always remember to use treatments that contain active ingredients that are known to be effective in treating hair loss.
The reality is that there is a sex hormone known as testosterone, which when
gets converted overly into a more hybrid form called Dihydrotestosterone; it makes the follicle weak and triggers shedding of hairs.
