Kuro Neko – Marsha’s Second Life Interviews

Hiiiis!!

It’s me, with another celebrity interview. Oh, how lucky I am!

Sinnocent Mirabeau: Aite, go ahead and grill me.
Kuro Neko: How long after you joined SL did you start making hair?
Sinnocent Mirabeau: About two months after, I ran into Calico Ingmann in Enomine, and she was showing off hair she had made, and I asked her to make me dread falls. After that I hung out with her a lot, and she taught me how to do hair.
Kuro Neko: That’s cool.
Sinnocent: Uh huh, she basically just showed me a few prims and told me to torture them, and thats exactly what I did.
Kuro Neko: How long did it take to make your first hair piece and did it sell?
Sinnocent: My first hair I didnt attempt to sell, because it looked like a birds nest. It was AWFUL!
Sinnocent: I dont even think I kept it *laughs*
Sinnocent: The second I named after my daughter Jillian, and it wasn’t the greatest, but a personal triumph. I think I sold maybe 3 in total of those.
Kuro Neko: What was it called?
Sinnocent: Jillian.
Kuro Neko: OK.
Kuro Neko: How did Sinsation start, and how many styles did you have back then?
Sinnocent: Well I got my name from my freelance web design business that I started about a year or so before coming here when a guy from a company on broadway recognized my work on a few websites I had done for fun, so I just brought it here because I like it hehe.
Sinnocent: I had about umm I dunno 10 hairs the first month, and as I got better and better, I started releasing them at a pretty fast rate.
Kuro Neko: Can i see some of your work
Sinnocent: Some of my old ones?
Kuro Neko: Sure.
Sinnocent: Humm I dont really have many of them anymore, I almost quit SL at one point due to some issues and I sold the rights to all of them.
Kuro Neko: I’m glad you didn’t quit. You’re such a nice person.
Sinnocent: Aww thank you, but SL has its issues. I have had to fight people over the theft of my name so many times and other things, it just got to the point where I needed a break.
Kuro Neko: What a bummer.
Kuro Neko: So, where do you get your inspiration for your wild styles?
Sinnocent: Actually, nowhere in particular. I dont really use references at all unless someone asks me for a custom. Most of my hairs are just works of my own imagination. I have always done wild things with my own hair in RL, and I guess it comes out here.
Kuro Neko: What is your favourite hair style of all of yours?
Sinnocent: Hmm…right now, I completely dig the one I’m wearing so for the moment it’s my favorite Note: see picture! – it’s called “Skye”. My favorites change often.
Kuro Neko: Who are the people you most admire in SL and why?
Kuro Neko: And please, don’t say me.
Sinnocent: LOL!
Sinnocent: Ok, definately not you…. LOL! joking! I think I’d have to say my girlie Washu (Zebrastripe, from Mirada).
Sinnocent: She has helped me in many, many ways and her creations are the best. I’ve learned a lot from her, and I hope that I’ve taught her a few things too.
Kuro Neko: Do you ever get to a point where you think, “I’m bored with making hair?”
Sinnocent: Yes, sometimes I get burned out. but there are other things that I do in SL now to help curve that.
Kuro Neko: Cyber sex?
Sinnocent: No, hehe..I don’t really cyber shag hehe..
Sinnocent: I make furniture and shoes and sometimes clothes I decorate and landscape places sometimes.
Kuro Neko: How much more popular has Sinsation become over the past year?
Sinnocent: Much.
Sinnocent: When I first started I didn’t sell very much at all. After the first Hair Fair, I got better sales. After Washu and I bought the sim, the sales went up even more, and then after this year at Hair Fair and all the attention I got for my unique and artistic styles in popular sl circulations my sales have really gone up!
Kuro Neko: That’s good.
Sinnocent: Which, has its perks…and negatives actually.
Kuro Neko: Do you get a lot of feedback from customers?
Sinnocent: Yes. Mostly good, a few bad.
Sinnocent: The one bad I got was pretty bad. She was harassing the other sim owners threatening them if they didnt buy me out. Posting lies about me on several websites, it was a pain in the ass.
Kuro Neko: What was her problem?
Sinnocent: Well, there is that Savior Hair site for all things hair…and they posted a story about the opening of Hairspray..and she posted that the sim was STUPID and pissed her off..and I told her she was rude, and that you didnt have to call someone’s hard work stupid to get your point across. I said that constructive critism would’ve been better.
Kuro Neko: Would you care to name and shame her?
Sinnocent: Xevv Boram. Then after that she started harassing me in IM. Then posting on sites that I was harassing her!
Kuro Neko looks at Xevv Boram’s profile.
Kuro Neko: According to her profile, she’s left SL.
Sinnocent: She did?
Kuro Neko: But she sounds like a b***h.
Sinnocent: Oh my God, she was horrible.
Kuro Neko: To be honest she sounds like a jealous ****. Though i may be judging a book by its cover.
Sinnocent: Oh, she was. But I have to say, I thank her for it, she got me a lot of business, and free advertisement! So kudos to her!
Kuro Neko: Do you ever encounter any other crazy gothic nekos with ipods on their ears?
Sinnocent: *Laughs* No, but one of my good friends here is neko, Donnovan Brennan, he owns GearShift.
Kuro Neko: Hehe the neko community is taking over! Even Damien (Fate) agreed that.
Sinnocent: LoL! Yes..ohh…oops I’m sorry girlie but it’s 3pm I’ve got to get to the meeting I talked to you about earlier.
Kuro Neko: OK. Anything else you want to say to finish up?
Sinnocent: Ummm, just that I really appreciate all the help and kindess that people have given me as of late, it makes SL fun to be in again, and I’m always to meet nice people like yourself
Kuro Neko: Hehe thank you
Sinnocent: And.. if you ever need weirdo hair, you know where to find me!
Kuro Neko: Yeah I sure do.
Sinnocent: Thank you very much for the interview, it was funs!
Kuro Neko: You’re welcome. I try my best nya.

Sinnocent and me sharing a milk bath. How relaxing!
