Rating:  Summary: This is a good book for women just starting to go natural Review: This is a well written book for women just beginning the natural hair process. However, I've been wearing my hair natural for several years now and would like to see information on how to STYLE natural hair not just natural hair care. Every natural hair care book I've come across gives the basic how-to's but very few offer the information I'm looking for. I can't find any information on how to CURL natural hair using wet sets. I want information on how to create sophisticated hair styles with natural hair using wet sets and this book, like most others doesn't provide it.
Rating:  Summary: This book will make you wanna go natural! Review: When I read this book I wanted to go natural right away! I've not yet gone all natural, but one day I plan to. This is a must have book for all black women!
Rating:  Summary: adixon Review: 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.
Rating:  Summary: Worth its weight in gold Review: When I went through the 1st chapters of this book, I was apprehensive and said to myself, "Uh-oh". The author rambles too much and is repetitive with her points. But she eventually begins to give priceless advice on shampooing, conditioning, moisturizing, and thankfully, texturizing! I was very disappointed with No Lye because Tulani Kinard failed to explore how to wear modern, natural hairstyles that weren't locked or braided. But Ferrell really came through for black women on this one and I am eternally greatful. The pictures are great, the models are beautiful. The advice is very practical and hard to come by. Buy this book! Thanks Pamela Ferrell!
Rating:  Summary: great natural hair care resource for sistas Review: 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!
