Summary: Great history
Comment: I loved this book because it gave great insight as to why black women relax their hair. The history of our hair from Africa to slavery to emancipation to the civil rights movement to today. It is amazing how important our hair is to us. This book will change the way you see your own hair forever.

Summary: Impressive historical account
Comment: As with the first review I read here, this book was indeed enlightening as well as entertaining. I would also like to add comforting because it includes so many tidbits reminiscent of my own experiences with hair as a woman of African descent. At times it also felt like I was talking to a wise elder. I learned a lot of history would highly recommend this book to those women who have internalized the negative messages all around us concerning our natural hair.
