Tekashi 6ix9ine is spending a small fortune on his hair pieces.
In a new interview with The Shade Room, the “TROLLZ” rapper revealed he drops $15,000 to pay his hair stylist Johnathan Wright every time he switches the look up.
Since his release from prison in April, 6ix9ine has rocked a variety of lace fronts including a blue and green blowout and rainbow braids so he’s definitely running a check up.
6ix9ine has been on the promotion trail for his new album TattleTales, which was released on September 4. Though initially expected to secure a No. 1 debut with projected sales of 150,000, a change in Billboard rules shifted the number drastically. Over 100,000 merch bundles the Brooklyn rapper sold instantly became disqualified, resulting in a readjusted current projection of just around 50,000.

Even 6ix9ine’s close homie Akademiks had to admit the effort flopped, breaking down in a video exactly why the seemingly decent numbers are not good at all.
“You had a No. 1 song in the last couple of months, you’ve done all this trolling — going to Nipsey’s mural, going to O Block — you snitched on n-ggas, you gonna sell 50,000 in the first week and you’ve been clowning other n-ggas who sold 50,000 in the first week,” he said. “You can’t be the numbers guy and then your numbers are weaker than the people you clownin. Doesn’t make sense.”
