I love this book. It is so valuable to Black people, and Black girls and women in particular, simply because there is so much internalized tension between us and our hair. I am nowhere near finished, but I felt a strong urge to write a review now, because only moments earlier I broke down into tears from what I read of this book. I broke down because I'm not even halfway through, but it has already painted a clear picture of the sick irony that is white supremacy. That is, the fact that White people can edge out Black people from their own creations made to combat white supremacy; sell the same products to Black people to perpetuate self-hate and white supremacy; and in the same breath, tell Black people that they are lazy racists when they try to regroup from white supremacy. This book is written rather matter-of-factly, but the contents are very raw, and they hit home. Beautiful work.

Originally I expected this book to be a bit shallow. I thought, "170+ pages about hair, yeah, right." But I was wrong. I was able to see the physiological damage that not only happened to me but virtually every other person in America with tightly coiled hair. I've been transitioning for about 6 months after about 25 years of having relaxed hair. I had already faced the sad truth that I had spent most of my life hating a part of me, being ashamed of my hair texture and further ashamed of the damage and thinning that came from relaxers. After reading this book, I saw that the damage to my mind had gone further that I could have ever imagined. I realized that our whole society is plagued with this false notion of straight, blonde, and shiny equaling success, wholesomeness, and all things good, while nappy, black, and matte is associated with the direct opposite. I have learned to enjoy my hair all the more through reading this book. I have a better understanding of our history, and how the negative connotation regarding the African heritage has all but obliterated the self-esteem of countless individuals. I consider this a must read for anyone but especially preteen African American women. This book could have spared me much pain in my teen & early adult years.I now think what if it was opposite. What if at the first sign of straight, blonde hair a mother took her five-year-old to the salon, told her that something was wrong with her fine textured tress, that she looked like a wet cat? What if that mother paid to have that child's hair permed in tiny perm rods & told her she had to keep putting caustic chemicals in her hair for the rest of her life so that she can be accepted, get a job, or a husband. That mother would be considered abusive. But many children in American receive this treatment every day, and instead of abuse, it's considered normal, fashionable or simply just the way things are.

I have spent an entire life trying to educate Black women on the fact that their hair is beautiful. Making the choice to change the texture is a personal one. However, I hope that Black women don't make the choice as a correction to their hair texture. There is too much self-hate in that. The point being natural Black hair is beautiful and should not be shame filled. Natural is the essence of who we are. I love my natural hair. [...]

I absolutely LOVE this book. I learned so much from it and it has inspired me to start reading more. The authors do a great job of recounting the history of blacks and our hair. I would highly recommend this book. It's a great read and will take you no time to get through it. Once you complete the book I'm sure you'll have a greater respect for the legacy of our ancestors and their struggles

This is a PHEONOMAL BOOK. Every person of African origin should have a copy in their personal library. It was very inspirational to find out that West Africans have and had LONG HAIR. It was so enlightening to know that 4a, 4b, and 4c hair can be managed but requires tender lover and care. Astounding is all I can say. This book also bought healing to me. I now have learned to appreaciate my kinky coiled hair and love it. Hair Story taught me that my kinky coiled hair is a LEGACY. This legacy was passed down as result of our ancestors learning to adapt to a new culture and environment and learning to survive "12-15 hour days in intense heat with a diet that consisted of no more than dried cornbread smeared with pork grease accompanied by a side of overcooked vegetables that lacked nutrients." What more can I say. I could read this book at least three more times and definitely find something that I missed before.

I absolutely love this book! It gives the history of Black hair in one book.The words and pictures were carefully chosen to convey the messages intended. After reading this book, my appreciation for our hair is even greater because I now understand the reasons why our hair has been evaluated, tested, scrutinized, devalued, and even glorified.The authors did an excellent job at compiling the facts to ensure that after reading this book, the reader has a healthy objective perspective of black hair, it's history, and the African American journey in America.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I love this book and believe everyone should read it to understand the importance of Black hair to so many aspects of our daily lives. This book simplifies the underlying reasons Black men and women are so creative and innovative in our hair styles, to begin to love the fact that Black hair is different and beautiful.To understand that to deny Blacks the opportunity to express themselves without criticism is to deny the opportunity to explore the culture. Blacks have an continue to have denial of self in the deliberate raping of a person of their homeland, language, name, religion, body, hair, humanity and ultimately entire self.
