Salon Se Swa is a chain of salons that have been around for a few years in NC (Raleigh/Durham) area. They are always closing locations and moving because of Katrise’s inability to pay salon rent, stylist and vendors. Katrise’s meal ticket ‘Gee’ got locked up so she is hurting for cash. Do some research you will see.
Sorry for the short email. I’m heading to a mtg and can’t go into a much detail as I would like. I will try to email u later.
SN: what’s up with MTO stealing ur stories?

I didn’t know anything about this. Maybe another reader has more juicy details?
Her face is BEAT. Whoever did her makeup should be permanently hired.
she need to be opening a notebook and writing some raps
I love her little retro look (face, hair). It works with all her works.
She looks better. Something about her mouth looks off though.
East
Not really a Kim fan but I love the hair.
I barely recognize her the Junior Mafia days…
@EPV you know Biggie’s gone. He can’t open a notebook for her and write.
Blank stare.
Don’t doctors have some type of limit as to how much plastic surgery you can do on one face? ’cause she looks like Latoya Jackson…
REALLY KIM. THE LUCILLE BALL HAIRDO……………

@East: I could’ve sworn I read somewhere that Lil Kim was coming out with a project in November to compete with Nicki’s CD. I could be wrong though…

Fyuck Latoya Jackson, bytch done changed races! She look Chinese
Ho Ming Lee Don Chung…that’s who she look like.
She should open up a nail salon, that would get major business.
Y Kim just Y??? She looked better presurgery
LOL @ East
Chinese? That aint right *snickers*
So, was the twisted bottom lip part of the plastic surgery or a mere side effect :/ ?
I want the old Kim back. Me no likey the Asian byproduct.
Am I the only one who thinks her friend looks like a fat Taraji?
Kim FINALLY looks nice.
@East TOTALLY Agree !!!
@Brown… Morning Honey-Baby !!!!!
Ahhh Ms. Sandra
Could you add a photo-shopped version of THIS PIC of Lil Kim w/ YT Skin tone & Put a pic of Kim-K right beside her (THEY LQQK So Similar to Me…)
@Elove, you know @Man is gonna get you for that, Kim K is PRICELESS.
Oh I FORGOT… Ole Gurl next to Lil Kim HAS Man-HANDS !!!
Is it me or is everyone getting surgery is going for the Kim K look what de hell???
I am in Raleigh and I am lost as hail. What does Kim (Meling Chin Ng) Jones gotta do with local azz Salon Se Swa?
IDK nathan about this. I DO know I haven’t been to Salon Se Swa in ages because they indeed kept moving…and I got tired of looking for them…a $10 doobie can be found just about anywhere in these parts and theirs was nothing to write home about….

Everyone knows “female rapper” is an oxymoron like “bitter sweet” and “deafening silence.” They are by definition a gimmick that expires within two albums.
That being said, Lil Kim is my girl. She ended Charli Baltimore’s career on that “Quiet Storm” with Mobb Deep. Still one of the hardest versus ever spit on the mic. Baltimore straight up disappeared after that chit came out.
HEY ELOVEEEEEEEE!
@BigDapDog
He KNOWS exactly how I feel about HIS QUEEN !!! (We Kool) 
@ Choco… I think so. ‘Cause Kim looks like her, Lala looks like her, & even Ciara looks like her. They must have a ‘look like Kim K for only $500’ surgery special in Beverly Hills or something.
@ELOVE

Honestly I didn’t read what you wrote about Kim K I would’ve saved myself the trouble of all that typing and simply put
THE DRESS SEAMS WILL BURST IN 5,4,3,2,1
@CHOCO
“Is it me or is everyone getting surgery is going for the Kim K look what de hell???”
__________________________________________________________________________
Can’t go wrong with that look.

@Kingston
Exactly where I was going with it
@Man
Oh yes you can – Kim face doesn’t even move when she speaks Looking like a Mannequin is not in!
Check your email
@Greatness, @Brown, @Choco, @Man, @Kwall, @ELove and whomever else I forgot
Hi guys

Shiiiiiiiiiiid. They must call that the “Earth Angel” special or something. And you know that muthafugga more than $500… prolly like $500,000.
:hugs: BigDap & SR FAM!
@Man… (comment #31)
You NEVER FAIL to defend YOUR GURL (I’ll give you that…)
And that “Quiet Storm” Reference
Shiiiiiiiiiiid. They must call that the “Earth Angel” special or something. And you know that muthafugga more than $500… prolly like $500,000.
and 500,000 to look like a Mannequin –

Actually Laker calls me her Earth Angel
@ Man.. does Lil’ Kims work look like she spent more than $600 for it? It just looks terrible. Have you seen that side by side picture of Kim & Khloe in the same dress?
They were so wrong for that chit..
@Choco, It is not a mannequin, it’s the wax figure look.
And Please, Please (Pretty Please…) Forgive Me –> Morning SR FAM !!!
Okay I had to do some research on this cause I was truly lost. The new salon opened by Kim and her cousin pictured above opened in Charlotte on 9/25. Congrats to them I guess. But Charlotte is 3 hours to the west of Raleigh….
Hey@ 34! NC natives on this board please help me understand…why does it irritate the hail outta me for folks to write or say….”Raleigh/Durham”???
I HATE THAT. I hate to hear it said by radio folks. I hate to hear out of towners say it. Despise it with all that I am. There is no place on any map with a city called Raleigh/Durham.
Hey Big DD!
@yvonne
find that article i wanna read that
@Kwall, I know what you mean. That crap is confusing if someone is really looking for one of those cities and someone says that. My fam is from Durham and we don’t say that, we just say Durham. But I guess the drive is not far enough to separate them in a sentence.
Team Kim.
This post didn’t make an ounce of sense but I’m not mad at Kimmy getting some shine so. :woot:
She looks pretty in these pics. #thatisall
Congrats to Kim. I hope it does well. She looks cute for a change.
HEY DRIVER..WHATS GOING ON WITH YOU.
WHATS UP MIRS..WHATS GOOD IN THE HOOD
@BigDap
Sorry but Imma have to vote for Madame Toussad for the realist looking Kim not her plastic surgeon

RE: Female Rappers
Missy Elliott. That is all.
Lord I miss the way Kim “used” to look. WHy didn’t her family say anything about her changing looks? Damn did they not notice? they can’t think she looks cute.. Hell she can’t think she looks cute!
heyyyyy thickness
I live in Charlotte and didn’t hear nathan about this salon until I read it on the blogs. Salon Se Swa who?!?! Chile bye, the latinos have the afro-american hair game on lock in Charlotte. My stylist is Mexican and has my hair bouncing all over the place.
@kwall, the whole Raleigh/Durham combination IS annoying.
I like Kim’s hair in this pic!
@Kwall…The same girl who ran (own?) the salons in Raleigh (when they were shutting down and moving every other month) is the same girl running (owner?) of the one in Charlotte.
I don’t think this is the 1st Salon Se Swa in Charlotte. I could be wrong so don’t quote me.
That salon rep is bad in Raleigh so they had to move that scam eleswhere and put a twist on it (a la Lil Kim)
It wont last long
Also if the chick who owns the salon “man’ is locked up she needs another financial backing source.
