Big up to Trinidad 🇹🇹 ❤❤❤❤❤
Trinnies are basically men that like to dress up like women?
And is that 🇹🇹🇹🇹💯
@@trinidadandtobago7098 nah they mixed
Love to see my Trini ppl being recognized internationally....many blessing to you and d crew Anthony 🇹🇹
Are they black?
Yes🇹🇹👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🇹🇹
@@keisharaye3304 Really? Is this why this is such a story? Because blacks can't grow hair?
@@mikeguy8517does it matter?
@@mikeguy8517Trinidad has alot of different races✨️
....why am I sitting here crying joyful tears with them?
Crying real tears over here!
That's happiness. You're feeling ot too😊❤
@@felistasmayombo3346 are they wigs?
Yes!!! SAME!❤
@@adrienne_12thorpe you have a wig also?
These women look like models! Every single one of them! Great job Mr. Claxton.
175 pound models
@@Pow_FIshjust like your aunt
@@Pow_FIsh 100 pounds, 175 pounds, 2000 pounds...models come in all colors and sizes
@@tinayu4540 and you can change your gender, and mutilating children is 'healthcare' 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@lava22you55 she wishes she was 175
This man is anointed!!!! He does it for the love and customers, not for the MONEY. We can feel that and he listens. In addition, he has no ATTITUDE and is not nice when you pay him at the end. He’s nice throughout the whole process. He deserves this. 🥳🥳🥳
Yes he is
Much love ❤️ my Dear many blessings 🙏 Always
Luv His enthusiasm 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤ his passion GENUINE THATS GREAT
He charges 1200 TT and up for the full service.... 500TT just for the cut...sooo yea money is also a thing. Don't be naive. Much respect to the girl doing the make-up and the one that does the color!!!
@@AshleighDanburryHow do you know that he doesn't charge the women in the videos? The prices you listed may be his prices for regular clients and not ones for video. He gets free advertisement and they get free service. Some stylist do that.
"Powered by God." I love the subtle shoutout to the Lord in his moment of recognition 🙌🏽💖 Styling is a ministry all its own. Bless them for the work they do! The cuts, color, & makeup are FIERCE! 💅🏽💎 Putting crowns back on these queens' heads! 👑
I LOVE THAT.
The hairstyles are decent looking but I still don't understand why allll the Trinidad Flags Are Flying????🤔 When tbh all of these hairstyles Are Alllll "Black-American Hairstyles"...That basically allll come from #AMERICAN so their all apart of Black America Hair Styles & Culture.~~So They Still Did (NOT) Come From "Trinidadian Culture." & Also these same exact hair styles have allll already been done manyyy times before in "Black America Salons"~~~So no shade but trying to give Him, or Trinidad, the "CREDIT" for somebody else's work, creations, & creativity, is wrong. & It's also pretty much like a form of plagiarism, or stealing, somebody else's work tbh smh.🤦
@Tina-bm8ei your comment tells me you missed the whole purpose of what he's doing and why. You just commented to have something to do.
@@melissamcclain34I said what I said maybe The TRUTH!!!!! Hurts???...Bc I said it was a cute story or whatever. But that still doesn't give somebody else the right to just take full credit. For somebody else's whole culture, style, hard work, & somebody else's creations, period. & All I said was just to set the record straight. Alllll the hairstyles are (NOT) "From Trinidadian Culture"~~~They're All From "Black American Culture" no shade but deal with the TRUTH!!!!!!!🤷
@@Tina-bm8ei So, are the hairstyles patented as American hairstyles? As an African, I have seen hairstyles that came from African cultures being done in the USA, Trinidad, other countries in the Caribbean, and globally. We do not sit and condemn the hairstylists; we celebrate a job well done. If you research the origin of those hairstyles, you can be sure it is not the USA, because in the past women in the USA were expected to have straight hair, not braided and not cut, hence why many black women used relaxers.
It ain’t nothin like somebody who’s good at their job! Passion fuels creativity and positive outcomes.
True that!
I'm glad he is finally being recognized
We love Anthony and his team! Proud moment for all Trinidadians.
All his clients are so naturally beautiful. He just takes their confidence to the next level with their hairstyles, and makeup. It’s a whole production!🥰🤗☺️
Happy he got a feature, his content is so good
How wonderful. What a miracle worker bringing happiness to so many. You go guy👍🏼
he's also homosexual! that's so cool.
Big up Trinidad! I love to see it! 🇹🇹
I love this for him. He appears to be such a great guy. He has built a business that celebrates and respects black women. I wish him nothing but the best 🇹🇹 A true professional with a heart of gold.
A woman's hair is her crown.
I love how he celebrates with them! 🥰🥰🥰
Not him ONLY JUST GOING VIRAL! He’s been doing the Lords work for so long. He is so awesome.
Cutting hair is the lord’s work 🤔🤦🏻♂️. Y’all be saying anything
@@real8551it is the Lord’s work,scripture do everything as though you are doing it unto God!
Giving these women a new lease of life!! I said what I said.
Big Uppppppp 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹 Do It Yute !!! This is the kind of publicity our little carribean island needs ❤❤❤
