Wonderful Book!!!
I have always fought against my curls, but this year I decided to embrace them. I bought "The Curly Girl" and followed some very easy step by step instructions!!! Now, I LOVE my curls!! The most important thing, for me, was getting rid of my everyday shampoo/conditioner. They were drying my hair! I now only use products that are labeled "no SLS". I find them at the local health food store. ...

A Great Book for Teachers and Teaching Students
My name is Lydia and I read it as part of an assignment for my teaching education classes. I loved this book. Esquith makes the classroom come alive in real life and on paper and his rebuke of traditional teaching is swift and precise. His students are different and think about learning differently because he teaches differently. While his all out style is not for every teacher you can ...

Why I love this book
Although some of the hairstyles are a tad trashy, most of them are really lovely. They're explain step by step, and each step and a coloured photograph and instructions. I would recommend this book to people who have a basic knowledge of hairstyling. They dont teach you how to blow dry your hair perfect or exactly how to tease hair so you'll need to know just a bit to start out. The ...

Reviewing Staging Your Comeback by Christopher Hopkins
Excellent book for women of any age who are interested in "staging a comeback". I received the book yesterday and basically read it through in one day. The author has a critical and objective eye, and can make artistic judgements that I simply can't see - until he reveals one of the makeover candidates after the makeover. He starts by giving excellent advice on how one should dress for their body ...

The tabs make it an easy reference guide to tailor a speech to your personal topic. For people who are experienced, or who have never given a public speech, there is invaulable information about audience analysis, presentation, and the basic construction of a ...

She gets it now...
My daughter is 10 years old and I have kept her hair naturally curly. She is mixed and gorgeous. She was at school and a little girl told her, " You need to tell your mommy to perm your hair, its a mess." She came home crying because this little girl, who is like her (the girl is african-american) said that to her. I talked to her about it but I don't think she believed me when I told her that ...

The Only Hair Care Book You'll Ever Need
I had come to the end of my ropes with my hair. It never grew past a certain length without breaking. I prayed, "God please send me an answer to my very bad hair day!"

The results were amazing. After all ...
