This was the first time that I've read a book that has more to say scientifically about black hair than "there are more sulfur bonds that create the curl". It goes into all of the details that someone starting a healthy hair journey needs to know. And even if you aren't starting one, it at least clues you in to why many of us have never ending problems with hair hair never getting past a certain length, dandruff, breakage, etc.

I borrowed this from a friend, but I'm definitely going to be purc This was the first time that I've read a book that has more to say scientifically about black hair than "there are more sulfur bonds that create the curl". I borrowed this from a friend, but I'm definitely going to be purchasing a copy. This is more like a textbook, or reference book. Something that I'll definitely be referring back to repeatedly not only for hair advice, but learning about the ingredients in the products that I use.

I can break down the ingredients in almost every personal care product in my bathroom and closets now! Jan 08, Kamali rated it really liked it. I really like this book. It was very informative. I had already known a lot of the information covered from my own years spent researching the web, blogs, hair forums, and YouTube. However, it is wonderful to have all this wealth of information on proper black hair care all wrapped up in a neat, little, package for easy reference.

She did a wonderful job keeping the tone of the book objective, unbiased and not lording one way of wearing black hair over the other. Just cold hard facts without any I really like this book. Just cold hard facts without any personal anecdotes and judgements make this guide an easy and enjoyable read. Highly recommend for all black women who are still figuring things out in their hair journey whether it be as natural, permed, texlaxed, colored, heat-trained, etc.

Nov 05, PoligirlReads rated it it was amazing. Wow, if you wanted to move beyond homespun wisdom to actual scientific knowledge about black hair, this is the book for you. Finally, an explanation for why my hair would behave or not behave in certain ways. There were times when I cringed because I was guilty of doing x, y, or z to my own tresses.

I liked the product list of "safe" brands for your hair the list was long enough that it didn't seem like she was getting kickbacks for product placements. I thought her inclusion of interviews wa Wow, if you wanted to move beyond homespun wisdom to actual scientific knowledge about black hair, this is the book for you. I thought her inclusion of interviews was kind of hilarious though, seeing how most of the women managed to completely ignore the book's guidelines.

It's easy to fall into headfirst into the "hair wars," and she adroitly avoids doing so. I think "transitioning" hair should've been given more coverage, but overall it was a very good read. I will be taking care of my hair differently after reading this! View 2 comments. May 23, Talia rated it it was amazing.

This book was so good. It had such a wealth of information. I am African American and have stopped getting relaxers since I have been studying natural hair since that time by reading blogs and watching YouTube. After reading this book I was amazed at how much incorrect and incomplete information is out there.

The author did such a great job with breaking down dense information to really understandable concepts. She gave good regimens and tips and really gave the reader everything they need This book was so good.

She gave good regimens and tips and really gave the reader everything they needed to get their hair on a healthy track. I appreciated the fact that the book was about black hair and not about any other because our hair is very unique and while some concepts are universal, there are some things that we as black people need to understand about the unique characteristics of our hair. My only small complaint is organization. Sometimes the author was redundant and disorganized. There were sometimes I read and thought 'ok why are we talking about this now, she mentioned this a few pages ago.

What was the purpose? Editing and grammar were good. Overall it was a great book I will always have as a reference. Jun 06, Diane rated it really liked it Shelves: science , african-american , afropean , latinx. This is must-read for those who, like me, have textured hair, and for hair stylists. For a long time textured hair was treated as "bad hair" and few hair stylists had any knowledge at all of how to look after it. The past few years things have changed, serious studies on textured hair have emerged and now we have a large choice of great products and techniques.

Lots of us apply some of those techniques without actually knowing the reason behind them. This book puts together the results of those This is must-read for those who, like me, have textured hair, and for hair stylists. This book puts together the results of those studies and gives you the science behind some of the new and trendy care regimens for textured hair. Oct 13, Maliza Mukungu rated it really liked it.

I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn about afro-textured. It was well researched and it caters for people with afro-textured hair both natural and relaxed, both for adults and children. I wish there was more details or a chapter on a regimen build up but I guess that was not the point of this book.

It is more of a textbook hence a lot of detail is covered. If one is looking for a way to make one's own regimen or products that information is not in here. Also I am in Africa so I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn about afro-textured. Also I am in Africa so some of the commercial products mentioned in the book are not easily available so a bit of work will be required from me to use what I learned in this book.

But as a book to use as a teaching tool, it is a great book. I will need to read it again and again to fully use and grasp all I need to know about afro-textured hair. Mar 07, Rose rated it it was amazing. I already knew quite a lot from reading blogs and watching youtube videos! BUT, this books presents more, presents the facts and gives it to you in such a simple and easy manner!

You'd better apply it all! This is a book for life, packed with information that has to be transferred! I have come to love my hair even more now, I know a lot more about it!! Jan 20, Sbb1 Eco-friendly Functional Art rated it it was amazing. Very clear concise break down of hair particularly textured hair , from how it grows and sheds on down to hair care and remedies. On a personal note, I think this is a good book to have if you have textured hair or are a parent or guardian of a child who has textured hair.

Dec 30, Virginia Singleton rated it it was amazing. I have learned so much about black hair care from reading this book. I highly recommend it. This book was very informative and had lots of information.

The best book on the education of African American hair. Aug 10, Joyce Senior rated it it was amazing. Every black woman should read this book! It has research-based information to help us make educated choices about our hair care regimes.

Personally, it also took me back through all my childhood, teenage and early adulthood experiences dealing with my own hair. I really liked how she used an objective approach to describe different styling options without labeling them as good or bad.

Also, one of my fav Every black woman should read this book! Now I feel like I would know what to do if I ever decide to have my own. Every parent with kids with textured hair should read it! Jun 28, Ashley Burrows rated it it was amazing.

This book was very helpful in my journey in understanding my hair. I will definitely be using this book as a reference for many things. Aug 23, Sharon rated it it was amazing. Extremely thorough! Feb 24, Ingrid rated it it was amazing Shelves: , self-care. This instantly helped me build a routine for myself and tackle what works and doesn't work with my hair.

However with the power of YouTube and a staunch personal hair journal, I've been able to utilize elements of this book to cut down on the effort time of my regimen without sacrificing quality. This book recommends 8 different products, and a weekly hair regimen. I only rely on products, but also commit to a weekly regimen that includes washing, braiding, and styling. Did I necessarily need a page book to get me to the simplistic lifestyle where I am now?

Not really. But it's helped me build a foundation of knowledge where I easily know what or why certain products or steps work or don't work for me.

So I'm happy with the results this book has given me! Hair will normally be in 8 plaited braids. On clarifying wash days, hair is washed in twists and then rebraided This is probably one of the best, if not the best, hair guides for Afro textured hair out there.

The author is a certified trichologist, cosmetology consultant, and health scientist. She knows her stuff, and this page textbook-guide is proof of the many layers pun intended to hair education that there are. I wish I had read this book at the start of my journey. Back in middle school the natural hair movement wasn't as popular. This book does just that. For black American women especially, this book will be a great catalyst to your hair care journey.
