He was definitely winning in the beginning but she picked up steam towards the end

[@alixnight5318]

This seems stressful. I don't think I'd be able to weave though these puns half as well as they do

[@juliachristenson5012]

This is painful to watch but I’m going to watch the whole thing

[@suefielding3847]

This is scary. I’m pretty sure if I’d dye from embarrassment.

[@lalalocaaa]

I was going to say it makes me want to curl up and DYE! lol

[@user-ht5ce2it3z]

It would be dreadful.

[@TheSlickchannel]

Dude in the straw hat is a hater lol

[@backroadbeetle4781]

This is like a polite rap battle

[@emilymiller1898]

I’m pretty gel-ous of their ability to come up with puns in the spot

[@seanschaeffer8475]

GELS A HAIR PRODUCT 😂 that a strike

[@emilymiller1898]

I guess that proves my point. I’m not cut out for this competition.

[@lalalocaaa]

@@emilymiller1898 I could honestly just curl up and DYE.

[@roastedsanta]

Whenever they get a strike, they've been DREADing that moment.

[@dandavidfrancisco91]

subtitles please!

[@cruzianfibergeek]

I'm here from a KZbin short some did about J Maya. No idea this even existed.

[@hollyprince2393]

It’s like the dudes wanted her to lose

[@suefielding3847]

He got a strike at the start but didn’t get a card. Wtf

[@claygeydos5309]

For anyone confused from her TikTok, I believe she said she won an award/MVP, NOT that she won the whole thing. Although, I'm still confused about the video description. Could be wrong. Uwu

[@hippocampus6514]

I wonder if punning on stage tressed them out.

[@ashleygavalchin483]

He was really crimping her style.

[@MrCruz-cf3lf]

Looks like things got into a "Hairy" Situation!

[@sonic12ful1]

I hate that old dude. he's so strict

[@milal3685]

anyone else notice right in the beginning, someone said there's no way she could beat that guy? I guess they were wrong

[@GiveMeZen]

Man, that was a close shave.

[@voicememossinging6623]

I guess they’re gonna “fall out” after this competition.

[@dylanalexander340]

There's a crowd attendance for this??

[@hughwebb1712]

If you watch the video then you can clearly see that there is

[@alizayay]

If I see those guys being so quick to take off her points again, I’ll SCALP them!

[@Thee_kane]

If she got 3 strikes doesnt that mean she lost?

[@tarekihaddaden9512]

I was waiting for them to mention something along the lines of a hare salon

I came here rooting for her but i would have been upset if she won - the dude absolutely had the better puns

Judges were giving her too many chances.

[@hippocampus6514]

@@spensert4933 They also nitpicked her more which gave him more time to think

She said on tik tok that she won

[@bahahhag]

@Janani Krishnan-Jha No way! I just found your tik tok and now hair I am. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing your puns. Your quick wit is very amusing and inspirational to me !!

[@joemo333]

That’s bullshit he should’ve had three strikes first. The thing that he named that is technically a hair product and a hairstyle should give him a strike since they technically said no hair products. Hair product trumps hairstyle so he should’ve got a strike.

[@odyssey1886]

And even if they let it slide because it's a hair product, it should've been a strike because 'curl' was used earlier smh

[@duckduck7189]

Man the ending must be the hard part

[@38dd]

Who else came hair from Tiktok? LOOOOOL
