    Book arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.

    The first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!

    Curly Girls, Unite!

    Amazing book about how to take care of curly hair. Super curly or just lovely wavy, it's all in here. I constantly receive compliments on my hair since beginning this method 8 years ago. Truly, it is a wonderful reference for those with this type of hair, or for parents of children with curly hair. One caveat - there are a couple of testimonials that refer to adult situations (a lover, or an affair, something like that) that I wouldn't want my tween to read, so if you are a parent, read the book first and make your own decision. Aside from that, it's all good!

  • From dry and frizzy to curly girl

    My hair was so dry and frizzy. I have some gray hair on the top that I call my skunk patch and it is crazy so I had to try something different. The book only took a couple of hours to read through because you don't have to read the whole thing, only the parts that have to do with your hair type, issues, etc. I started the program right-a-way and my hair and curls have definitely improved and look healthier. I have a big swirly gray and brown curl that dangles on my forehead. I'm still trying to find someone who can cut my hair the curly-girl way and then I will see the full results. I liked it so much, that I purchased two more book and put together a starter kit for two curly-haired friends of mine who are both excited about seeing what it will do for their hair.
