Why is Tessica Brown being slammed?
Her action of launching a line of merchandise, however, did not bode well with many, who are slamming her for monetizing such a serious situation, especially after she received a free 'lifesaving' surgery from Dr Michael Obeng in Los Angeles.
The critical hair restoration surgery took the renowned surgeon over four hours to complete, which he willingly performed pro-bono.
"I'm confused (Thinking face) I thought Tessica 'gorilla girl' said she just wanted everything to die down, she wasn't out for any type of gain and didn't want publicity. Now, she's selling 'gorilla glue girl' merchandise (Smirking face) It seem like somebody lied (Woman shrugging) #GorillaGlue," tweeted one user.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Tessica had said, “I never was going to take this to social media. The reason I took this to social media was because I didn't know what else to do. And I know somebody out there could have told me something. I didn't think for one second when I got up the next morning it was gonna be everywhere.”
I'm confused🤔

There is also a GoFundMe page started for her medical expenses, which has now accumulated $23,674 in total, while the original goal was at $1500 only.
However, Tessica has announced that she will donate more than $20,000 from the raised amount to Restore Foundation, run by Dr Obeng, which helps people across the world to get reconstructive surgeries.
