Summary: adixon
Comment: When I received my book I immediately read the entire book the same day. This book can be used by all. I thought the book offered information on various hair styles from the afro to weaves. I especially loved seeing the various natural hairstyles. I went immediately and had all the perm cut out of my hair and I am pleased to be sporting a healthy head of hair. I know a lot of people expressed concerns with the lack of production suggestions and instructions, but I think that should be up to each individual to try what's best for them. I'm blessed to have someone who is well versed in natural hair care right here in Pittsburgh.

Summary: It's okay, but...
Comment: I bought this book based on the rave reviews listed here. I was disappointed. 1) too much pseudo-existentialist talk 2)too much negativity (I was brought up in Nigeria. We don't have the concept of "Nappy hair"; although she seems anti this attitude at the start of the book, the author continues to bandy its use elsewhere). 3) the author is a salon owner. She shows nice pictures, then instructs one to "go to the salon" 4)Minimal relevant practical information, eg on choosing shampoos. We all know that we have to try different things to find whats right for ourself (duh!) but how about info on pH, home-recipe conditioners, or types of hair care products to avoid (eg bobbypins)?
This book is useful for those who have had previously processed hair as far as what to do as it is growing out, and for those who really don't know how to do their hair, or know the basics of caring for truly natural hair. Personally, I prefer the attitude and depth of information in NO LYE,but the combination of the two is good for others: this one to start with, the other once they become more adventuresome.

Summary: great natural hair care resource for sistas
Comment: wonderful information and some historical background, great descriptions and inspirational photos. this is a basic must-have for natural hair care. it would have been better with more modern hair styles (they seemed kinda 80's to me), even more information on growing out healthy natural hair, and more info on the emotional component of STAYING natural...
i have been natural for almost 3 years and i am luvin the absolute freedom! i've never had so much HAIR LUV before...
blessings!
