Textul de pe ultima copertă

Hair matters. And these writers go to great lengths to help us understand why.

Adriana Trigiani on trendy hair:
"I figure when Madonna gets scared about changing her hair, something is about to blow again, like Vesuvius."

Marita Golden on black hair:
"Black women's hair is knotted and gnarled byissues of race, politics, history, and pride."

Anne Kreamer on going gray:
"Much to my surprise, when I stopped coloring my hair, time began to slow down, in a good way."

Maria Hinojosa on curly hair:
"As I came to accept and even love my wild hair, it became a way for me to feel power that I had never experienced."

Alex Kuczynski on waxing:
"'Very beautiful.' I will never forget those words. I associate them with shock and vulnerability--and chafing."

Deborah Feldman on covering hair:
"Eventually I threw away my wigs. I abandoned the community that had forced me to wear them."

Suleika Jaouad on lost hair:
"Chemotherapy is a take-no-prisoners stylist."

Patricia Volk on products:
"High-functioning hair obsessives rarely go it alone. We have a team. The products, the people."

"Untangles the many truths about hair, and the lives we lead underneath it." --Pamela Druckerman, author of Bringing Up Bebe

"[A] splendid collection . . . By turns wry, tender, pointed, and laugh-out-loud funny." --Publishers Weekly
