My favorite book is no lye by Tulani Kincard. It is the first book on natural haircare I've ever read and that convinced me that I did the right thing by going natural because she said, if you have a relaxer and your stylist tells you that it's healthy. She's lying! It will never be healthy because relaxer, dryness and breakage go together and form a vicious cycle.
Since then,I've read several books and really enjoy Falling in love with your nappy hair as well as Dreads
Okay, one of my favorite books is Tenderheaded by Juliette Harris, Pamela Johnson.
http://www.amazon.com/Tenderheaded-Comb-Bending-Collection-Hair-Stories/dp/0671047566
It's a book filled with stories and pictures about natural hair - from why people cover their hair to tetimonies about wearing natural hair. It also has entries from the famous like Toni Morrison and Henry Louis Gates Jr., as well as everyday people.
I even love the cover it reminds me of back in the day when I used to sit in my grandmother's kitchen getting my hair hot combed :o) I also had the opportunity to meet the authors and get my copy signed.
Great read!
Thanks for the chance to win such a beautiful gift. I will keep my fingers crossed. LOL.
Just from the title it sounds like an awesome book. Thanks for sharing/entering and happy transitioning!
