Great Help for Transracial Adoptive Moms, 2007-09-09
As a white Mom with an A-A daughter, I have a lot to learn about caring for her dry, kinky hair. I thought this book had some great tips about general hair care as well as styling. There are line-drawing illustrations to accompany photographs of the completed hairstyle. Most of all, I liked the supportive attitude of the author and the short essays from other Primary Care Givers (Black, White, and Biracial) about styling their daughter's hair. My daughter is 2, so many of the styles are not appropriate for her yet, but I have been able to incorporate aspects of the more complicated styles into her more simple daily 'do. You can read a more complete review and learn more about my adoption experience at my blog [...]

Horrible, 2007-08-29
Words can not describe how worthless this book is. I ordered this book from Barnes and Nobles yesterday (8/28/2007). When I got home and flipped through the pages, I wanted my money back. I really thought this was going to be a good book. I read all the reviews on amazon before I decided to purchase. I thought this book was going to have information on how to properly care for natural hair and maybe list some worth wild hairstyles that I could use on my hair. I did not find any useful information what so ever. Any information the book gave was to brief. The pictures and style demonstrations were not even that good. This book is not worth paying $13.95. I have found more information from Nappturality and by reading Cathy Howse's Ultra Black Hair Growth book. I would adivse anyone not to buy this book.

Great Hair Book!, 2007-08-04
I really like this book because the author made it easy to understand page by page of how to make beautiful hairstyles for my both of my daughters. They have even re-created some of the hairstyles themselves if I'm not around. I have enjoyed this book soo much, that I bought another one for my best friend for her young daughter as well. The only thing missing was the color pages. But this book is for thoses Mothers out there who want their Daughter and Son to look there best without a lot of time and cost!

Not all Good..., 2006-08-02
The pictures in this book are not very helpful when trying to recreate the styles. I purchased this book in order to gain ideas for hairstyles for my little ones. This book does contain pics of different styles, but it will only show the hairstyle from one angle. It may show a picture from either the front, side or back, but not from all three angles. If you just want to read a few stories about kids experiences with their hair, then purchase this book. If you are looking for pictures of hairstyles, consider yourself warned.

It's All Good Hair, 2006-05-21
When my daughter was born, I had to send my sister down to the hospital store to buy an adult comb because none of those cute little baby combs would work. Being Black, I thought I knew all there was about caring for black hair. But my hair is fine and medium length and here I was with a baby with thick, coarse wavy hair. My daughter has long, beautiful healthy hair. A lot of girlfriends as well as strangers ask what do I use on her hair and how do I care for it. I ran across this book in a thrift store and purchased it for $1. I like this book because it does a good job of telling you how to take care of your child's hair from birth and to recognize that your child's hair might be different from yours. Yeah, the illustrations could be better, but it's a good place to start if you want to get up to speed with caring for an African American child's hair. I often give this book as a gift at baby showers accompanied by Jane Carter Solution's hair care products, especially nourish & shine--it's a must have!
