To all of you, My apologies for any inconvenience that any of you experienced for the temporary inaccessibility of this board. I don't want to belabor what happened but assure you all that several steps have been taken and money has been spent by HairBoutique.com to make sure that there is no further disruption of any kind to the HairTalk boards. I took some time and seriously evaluated all the issues and made the decision to relaunch the boards so that they are better and stronger than before. I want to thank all that emailed me and called with support and suggestions for relaunching HairTalk to make it a better place for the long term. The problem threads have been permanently removed and new moderators (some paid for by HairBoutique.com) have been put in place to return HairTalk to a friendly place to visit. All the folks that caused the trouble have been permanently banned from posting here. All inappropriate posts will be immediately removed. Celebrity Hair Talk was originally opened as the request of Jerky Flea many years ago and it should be noted that as we brought the boards back online, it was the first board reopened for posting. Thank you for all your understanding and for your patience during our challening experiences. I am committed to making Hair Talk work for the long term.

I want to add my sincere thanks for bringing back the boards. Karen, thanks so much for all that you and Hairboutique do for this community. I had the flu and when I finally got the strength to log back on the boards were gone! I was heartbroken so I am very happy to have this back as a Christmas present. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season and I am glad we are all back on. ------------- "It is better to look marvelous than to feel marvelous" Billy Crystal |

Karen, Thank you for bringing back the boards! It's like that old saying, "you don't know what you've got til it's gone." I really missed the boards. Thanks again. Caramia ------------- "I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me." |

Hi all, Thanks for your all your kind messages. I promise that with all the new "HB.com hired gun moderators" helping with the boards and all of the good folks like you all that hang at Celebrity Hair Talk and that other forums here, this will not happen again. Sometimes when things get really crazy you have to just take a step back and regroup, plug the holes and dive back into. :-) So thanks for your patience and understanding. I hope you all had a great Christmas and will have a Happy New Year. Best wishes, Karen ------------- That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-) |

Thank YOU so much, Karen! I was getting withdrawl symptoms, and wasn't looking forward to the rest of my life without HB, it's support and these internet buddies here. Thanks for putting the forums back. I'll never be nasty again. You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone, but it's so good to have it back! Happy new year everyone, hope you had a good Christmas ------------- http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea - http://www.myspace.com/waltzin_with_the_open_sea Ah-ha, a place I can soon add hair pics...once I do some |

I, too, am so glad to have the boards back. A few days after they had been dropped, I removed this site from my favourites list. Just on a whim yesterday, I typed "Hair Boutique" in my search engine, fully expecting to find the boards gone. To my pleasant shock, they were back. It just goes to show that the actions of a few can't keep a good group down! Happy holidays, and welcome back! ------------- |

Just wanted to add my personal appreciation of the return of this excellent community! Admittedly, I don't post here all that often (usually due to others of precisely the same opinion beating me to the punch!!) but the Net truly didn't feel the same during its absence. Long may it continue!! |

| I''''m also happy to see this board back, I''''m a hairstylist and I use this site to keep me up to date daily on celebrity hair. Magazines are good, but they take a month or two sometimes to report on a new cut and color. This board is much more reliable and quicker in producing up to date information. I thank you for being one of my most valued tools. |
