Synopsis
The Curly Girl manifesto is back, now completely revised, updated, and expanded by more than a third with all-new material. Created by curly hair evangelist Lorraine Massey the go-to curl expert featured in "Allure," "InStyle," "Lucky," "Seventeen," and "The New York Times"; owner of the Devachan salons in New York; and creator of a multimillion-dollar line of all-natural Devachan products "Curly Girl" is the surprising bible for the 65 percent of women with naturally curly or wavy hair and a desire to celebrate it. "Curly Girl" is packed with unique and fail-proof hair-care methods, inspiration, and an empowering pro-curl attitude. It s all here: daily routines for Botticelli, fractal, and wavy curls; Lorraine s no-more-shampoo epiphany "handle your hair as gently as you do your best cashmere sweater"; homemade lotions and potions. New to this edition: an illustrated, step-by-step guide to trimming your own hair (Remember: It s not what you take off; it s what you leave on.); a section on the "particular" needs of wavy hair; Lorraine s Down-and-Dirty Curly Boy Routine; more fabulous dos for weddings and other special occasions; a chapter on multi"curl"tural hair written by an African American specialist at Devachan. Plus, updated information on green and chemical-free products, 20 new Q&A s, and a DVD with tutorials on caring for four different types of curls. From now on, there s no such thing as a bad hair day.", Curly girls of the world unite! Sixty-five percent of women have naturally curly hair, but for too long too many of these women have either been at a loss on how to care for their hair properly or, worse, have gone through life pretending they have straight hair. No more. Lorraine Massey, a professional hairstylist and passionate proponent of curly hair, celebrates the curly girl way of life, from hair care to carefree attitude. Beginning with The Curly Girl's Twelve-Step Program (Step Three: I will accept that the scalp and hair are two different entities with completely different needs, and I will treat them accordingly), CURLY GIRL is an illustrated how-to, support group, and tongue-in-cheek manifesto all in one. There are tips on shampoo (never daily), conditioners (use lots), drying, combing (only when wet and well-conditioned), styling, getting the right cut, and how to Heal Thy Hair after years of strong detergents and damaging blow-dryers. There are before-and-after photographs, Curly Cues, self-help tests, confessions from curly girls, advice to take to your stylist. And for girls seeking their inner curl, compassion and encouragement to let their hair break free-and to put the fear of frizz behind them forever. Because from now on there's no such thing as a bad hair day., The Curly Girl manifesto is back, now completely revised, updated, and expanded by more than a third with all-new material. Created by curly hair evangelist Lorraine Massey--the go-to curl expert featured in Allure , InStyle , Lucky , Seventeen , and The New York Times ; owner of the Devachan salons in New York; and creator of a multimillion-dollar line of all-natural Devachan products-- Curly Girl is the surprising bible for the 65 percent of women with naturally curly or wavy hair and a desire to celebrate it.

    I received a different version of the item that was advertised - but am extremely happy to report that Clarissa responded quickly and, once it was confirmed, issued a refund without delay. I've ordered from this vendor in the past: wonderful high quality books, & have always enjoyed quick replies with helpful information, great prices and fast shipping. Mistakes happen. Rock solid customer service is RARE. Thank you, Clarissa for handling the discrepancy so well. I'll def buy from you again!

    The item was very nice but certainly not in brand new condition as described and was shipped in just a poly bag with no protection. However, shipping was extremely fast, the seller was very responsive, and the price was excellent. This book completed the set for me. Thanks!

    Not for a 10 year old girl - references to sex that are unnecessary - I wanted a book to help with caring for and maintaining her hair.

    The book came in and I gave it to my 10 yr. old to help with her hair. It was recommended to me by a parent, so I thought I was safe. Think again - shortly after my daughter was reviewing it, she asked - "Mom what is spontaneous sex?" I said, what, are you kidding me - needless to say this book is not appropriate for young girls. We will not be keeping this book - buyer beware - read the content before you give it to your kid. Content may be OK for hair tips - I did not review to be honest - I will look for a book more age appropriate for my daugher. Very disappointed in the references to sex - that was inappropriate.

    Great Read for the Curly Head

    Found this very interesting. I already use most of the steps recommended in the book for maintaining healthy curls but picked up several great styling tips and hacks.
