  Bootlegging old Bill 10-12-2009, 11:48 PM I was surfing the net today and landed on a site for hair replacement. I always like to see what the competition is doing ( and, believe me, they are no competition ). Among the before and after photos is a shot of old Bill's head. I don't know if that is a copyright infringement or not, but I thought I would bring it to your attention, in case anyone cares to do anything about it. I don't think they should be using the president of another company to promote their own. I don't want to publish their URL here, but I will be glad to share it privately with anyone from HD. Jeff

  Re: Bootlegging old Bill 10-13-2009, 12:50 AM I respect companies which use their own client pictures to help display their products. However, I'm just amazed that some companies actually use Hair Direct pictures to promote their units. It appears to happen a lot too. This is the 3rd or 4th time I have read on this forum about other companies using Hair Direct pictures. They must have pretty horrible products to not even be able to have any pictures of their own to display. That's just sad.

  Re: Bootlegging old Bill 10-13-2009, 1:28 PM Just remember, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery...they always want what they can't have! Crooks..go get 'em Brandon! Babe Not born with hair, but I've got the intelligence to find it, the money to pay for it, the patience to "stick" it on just right, the will to make it work, the confidence to wear it boldly and the smile to wear under it!
