The Braids...
« on: January 10, 2007, 04:32:43 PM »
i'm real interested in when these braids came about. It's hard to say with the lack of Axl notices between 94-01 does anyone know when he got his braids? I myself think a little bit after RIR 3, but I'm not sure.

I've seen pics of him in 01 with normal hair no braids, so my guess is late 01 early 02.

in late 2001 or early 2002.

probably cause the media said he was 'balding' durin Rock in Rio and all that.

or cause rap was popular, and the braids and the jerseys showed that.

I dont no when he got them, but i was watching rock am ring earlier and i really like the braids, i think he should keep them, get them redone but keep them, at this stage they will be on the artwork :D

he looked awesome at RIR 3. obviously he had put on a bit of weight, but he's back in shape now. I'd love to see him with normal hair again now :)

He first sported some braids in the Vegas shows Dec 29 and 31, 2001. But those were just a couple among his normal hair. Half a year later his entire hair was braided.

I think I can narrow it down a little bit.

it happened in the sept-dec 2001 period.

last time he was seen unbraided was @ the NBA interview, available at youtube.

exactly, he would look great without the braids now.  not that it really matters all that much, just get CD out!

here's a mystery for you people.

rolling stone or some other magazine back then said that Axl used to work up to 4 hours per day in his "solitude" period...
here's the question...
if he worked out 4 hours per day, how the fuck did he end up being "fat" in 2001? :D just an example, how the media lies...
its now obvious that he probably did an "Al bundy"...
stayed home all day, watched porno, and ate lot of m&m-s :p

I agree, Wish We Still Had The Axl From The "November Rain" Video, with Long Straight Hair

well he had a bit of a double chin going in 2000 but he didn't really put across a fat look:
