At the end of the day Derek owns a shop in Atlanta and has been doing hair there since at least the RHWOA first start (4-5 years ago). Although he applied for his hair license in April of 2012. He has still been doing hair illegally for the past 4-5 plus years. As far has traveling hairstylist his home base is ATL. I’m sure he listed his residents as Georgia. Wonder where he is registered to vote and where does he pay taxes. That is the state his hair license needs to be in. As far as Lawrence goes I wonder if Sheree can sue him if he really made her hair fall out all while he was doing hair with no license. HMMMMM…..

I really respect how Derreck J handled this whole situation. He’s right in that he can’t be licensed in EVERY state and foreign country. I do think he did the right thing to submit an application though. Good for him! Hopefully Lawrence gets his situation straight since he primarily does hair in Atlanta.

I’m thinking that this should be the catalyst for a NATIONAL licensing board like every other profession with regional offices. It would be a lot easier for traveling stylists.

Uuummmm why is Lawrence’s address listed on here for EVERYBODY to see…???

I really don’t have any feelings about these men and their license issues or lack thereof…either the board will catch up to them or not. *Shrugs* I don’t think that this will even matter to their loyal customers one way or the other. Speaking of loyalty…I get being a blogger and wanting to always be the one to spill the tea BUT if Sandra and Derek J were as cool as SHE wanted everyone to believe why wouldn’t she talk to him about this before posting that story? She knew last night according to twitter that she was going to post it. At what point is your loyalty to someone more important than exposing them! I cant with her. With THAT being said…to Derek J this is probably exactly how Kandi felt last night when according to her you threw her under the bus for bravo!!! Get it together folks and stop letting dollar signs rule over common sense.

LMAO AT MICHELLE..SHE NOT GIVEN DEREK J UP FOR NONAYALL..WHAT U SAID LOYALTY BOO!!

Hell my girl been doing my hair in her kitchen for years, her license is hanging up in her kitchen it says "Bless this Mess". GTFOHWTBS!!!

This what happens when you are all up and through ( Maya Wlikes voice ) the TV. Your skeleton’s come out of the closet. Lol I’ve seen Derek J. on many TV shows that focus on hair and he has judged a lot of hair shows. On RHOA they both seem to have specialities Derek’s seems to be wigs or fantasy hair and Miss L’s seems to like weaves. I wonder if Miss Lawerence’s probation is due to him messing up more than Sheree’s hair. I wonder if she paid him? May be a case for Judge Mathis. Lol

They are not licensed on technicalities.

They both attended cosmetology school and have both passed state boards licensing at some point during their careers… this is petty

I am a mother of a son who is gay and I would like to share his thoughts during one of our cherished conversations. Coming from a man who is gay he shared his personal dislike for men who are gay and cross dress as women. He says that the lifestyle is hard enough to deal with as it is with this not being a choice but how one is born… to complicate it even more with men impersonating and cross dressing as women. He explains that a man who has to dress as a woman dislikes his own self and has to trick himself into believing that dressing this way will make being gay more exceptable to themselves and society. It is a form of self hate and being unable to except the FACT that he as a man that is attracted to the same sex. He explained that a lot of gay men who are ok with their gay sexuality believe that being overly flamboyant in bodily actions, with words , and cross dressing as a women is equaly bothersome to them(gays) as well. So please don’t feel that way because a heterosexual points out how rediculous these two (Derick J and Miss Lawrence) look.

WAIT.

If you google the address on Lawrence’s application, a youtube video of the condo pops up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BqTFYGye-E

Aint that the SAME apartment Sheree was living in with her kids when she was shooting last season?

Some of the comments I’ve read are ignorant.. I’m not directing this toward anyone, but why are u worried about their business if it doesn’t concern you.. That’s what is wrong with society this day yall worried about another persons business. If they told u to sit in their chair and not to pay a dime you would gladly sit there.. Sometimes it’s best to talk what u can prove rather than what u heard or read.. And last but not least to the ignorant person or persons talkin about the difference between a kitchen hairdresser and a licensed hairdresser.. U are Stoooopid, bc I’m a kitchen cosmetologist with license and knowledge of hair also with a full time job… So tlk what u know not what you think stoooopid…
