The Bubble Is Back: “Naturally Curly Raises $600,000 in Funding”

Yes, you heard that right. Mashable:

Naturally Curly, the online community for people with curly hair founded in 1998, has raised $600,000 in a round of funding led by James Treybig, founder of Tandem Computers, a computer manufacturer which was bought by Compaq in 1997.

Who knew a site devoted entirely to curly hair even existed, let alone needed $600,000 to do… whatever it is they’re doing?

Dear angel investors and VCs who read my blog,

I’ve got an idea for ya:

Simply Afrotastic - the online community devoted to people who rock the fro.

The good news? You will only need to invest $400,000 to get this incredible resource launched. I’ve tentatively set the future IPO price of Afrotastic at a modest $17 a share on a $800 million valuation, give or take a few hundred mil. Any takers?

- Shanti
