Book excerpt: “As far as neatly and efficiently chronicling African Americans and the importance of their hair, Hair Story gets to the root of things.” —Philadelphiaweekly.com Hair Story is a historical and anecdotal exploration of Black Americans’ tangled hair roots. A chronological look at the culture and politics behind the ever-changing state of Black hair from fifteenth-century Africa to the present-day United States, it ties the personal to the political and the popular. Read about: Why Black American slaves used items like axle grease and eel skin to straighten their hair. How a Mexican chemist straightened Black hair using his formula for turning sheep’s wool into a minklike fur. How the Afro evolved from militant style to mainstream fashion trend. What prompted the creation of the Jheri curl and the popular style’s fall from grace. The story behind Bo Derek’s controversial cornrows and the range of reactions they garnered. Major figures in the history of Black hair are presented, from early hair-care entrepreneurs Annie Turnbo Malone and Madam C. J. Walker to unintended hair heroes like Angela Davis and Bob Marley. Celebrities, stylists, and cultural critics weigh in on the burgeoning sociopolitical issues surrounding Black hair, from the historically loaded terms “good” and “bad” hair, to Black hair in the workplace, to mainstream society’s misrepresentation and misunderstanding of kinky locks. Hair Story is the book that Black Americans can use as a benchmark for tracing a unique aspect of their history, and it’s a book that people of all races will celebrate as the reference guide for understanding Black hair. “A comprehensive and colorful look at a very touchy subject.” —Essence

A trip to your local beauty supply store or even an experience at a seminar or beauty event may heighten the confusion of knowing if a product is truly best for keeping black hair healthy. Working with black hair alone may be very easy or difficult, depending on your practices and knowledge, while also trying to understand what products are best for your hair can be pretty challenging. There are wide selections of hair products to choose from varying in all shapes, sizes, and promises and because of this, it's so easy to be tricked and fooled into constantly buying different hair products that do nothing for your hair. In this manual, I promise to help guide you to your best hair products by informing you on how to go about finding them according to their ingredients and by helping you to know how to use every product properly for your hair.

Book excerpt: A Kirkus Best Book of the Year Stamped from the Beginning meets You Can't Touch My Hair in this timely and resonant essay collection from Guardian contributor and prominent BBC race correspondent Emma Dabiri, exploring the ways in which black hair has been appropriated and stigmatized throughout history, with ruminations on body politics, race, pop culture, and Dabiri’s own journey to loving her hair. Emma Dabiri can tell you the first time she chemically straightened her hair. She can describe the smell, the atmosphere of the salon, and her mix of emotions when she saw her normally kinky tresses fall down her shoulders. For as long as Emma can remember, her hair has been a source of insecurity, shame, and—from strangers and family alike—discrimination. And she is not alone. Despite increasingly liberal world views, black hair continues to be erased, appropriated, and stigmatized to the point of taboo. Through her personal and historical journey, Dabiri gleans insights into the way racism is coded in society’s perception of black hair—and how it is often used as an avenue for discrimination. Dabiri takes us from pre-colonial Africa, through the Harlem Renaissance, and into today's Natural Hair Movement, exploring everything from women's solidarity and friendship, to the criminalization of dreadlocks, to the dubious provenance of Kim Kardashian's braids. Through the lens of hair texture, Dabiri leads us on a historical and cultural investigation of the global history of racism—and her own personal journey of self-love and finally, acceptance. Deeply researched and powerfully resonant, Twisted proves that far from being only hair, black hairstyling culture can be understood as an allegory for black oppression and, ultimately, liberation.

Would you like to go from SL to APL in 6 months? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have your own hair down your back? Is it even possible? Yes it is, I’ve done it and so can you. Yes, that’s right my hair is a mixture of 4b and 4c my heritage is in West Africa, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria and my hair is natural, soft and BSL (My hair reaches my bra-strap). Don’t worry if you don’t know all the terminology, it is all explained in detail in the book J. If you are like me, you want very long hair since you were a child. I had my hair relaxed from the age of 12 and although when I was a child my hair was quite long, after the relaxer my hair hardly grew past SL (Shoulder Length). That was until I discover the black hair community in 2007. I was so excited by all the things I was reading, the techniques, the testimonials, the recipes and more, I started dreaming again the dream I had when I was a little girl and I pretended the towel on my head was my hair. So one day, I decided to start following all the sound advice I had now collected for over 6 months. I started in July 2007 and by July 2008 my hair reached just below APL. Having reached this goal and celebrated in style, I started having other ideas as I kept reading all that was available online at the time. I decided to go all natural, It was a hard decision as I didn’t know how to go about it, should I cut all my hair off? Well, no way! I’ve always had long hair all my life and was not prepared to change that, I couldn’t imagine going to work bald!!! My last relaxer was in November 2008 and I’ve never looked back, I used a lot of growth help some with more success than others and a lot of techniques and I made it. We are now in 2014 and my kinks are BSL, beautiful, soft and shiny. I have 6 years of experience dealing with my own hair and helping others with theirs, I’ve been blogging on various subjects ranging from ‘How to look after mixed race children’s hair’ to ‘Is it Better to Transition or Big Chop?’. I’m so happy to have contributed to so many success stories. Now, I’m ready for your success story. Are you ready?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To respect and protect the privacy of the black women he interviewed, the author chose not to disclose locations, names, and personal information in the book. He hopes you understand. The author saw something in black women from all over the world to include in Africa, in Asia, in America, in Australia, in Europe, even in Antarctica that caught his attention. No matter where black women resided on the planet, no matter where they were from, they wore the same hair, the same fake hair. So, he decided to write a book about it. He titled the book: Many Reasons Why Black Women Don’t Wear Their Own Hair. He believes that it is not possibly what you think, as it provides answers from black women themselves. First, he wanted to make it clear that he is not against black women wearing different hair that is not their own, such as, weaves, extension, braids, wigs. This book is born from his curiosity and ambition to explore and discover those reasons. Second, he has his own opinions about these reasons. He could have just written this book and state what he believes those reasons are. Moreover, he could have released what his thoughts are. Instead of doing so, he decided that it would be wiser and smarter to not just write about what his own points of views were. He said to himself, “Why not go and ask black women about their hair? Why not go after the truth?” Such truths can only be told and provided by black women themselves. He asserts that women who wear wigs, extensions, weaves, and braids may not like their own hair. Finally, he decided to interview one hundred black women from different locations around the world to find out the reasons why they don’t wear their natural God-given hair. In fact, he received one hundred answers from one hundred black women he met and interviewed. He then combined their answers into twenty-three interviews in this book as many of the answers were the same. He believes this book may not cover all of the reasons why black women wear different hair. In contrast, he believes, the reader will be surprised to discover a variety of reasons why they don’t wear their natural hair. He welcomes you to sit back, relax, and enjoy his interactions with these women.
