Textures: The History and Art of Black Hair

I purchased this item to gift. I was looking for a nice table book with earth tone colors. The cover immediately caught my attention. As you can see, there's a beautiful girl with textured hair. The book is extremely interesting as it explains the history of black hair and care through the years. This book would be perfect to display in a hair salon.

Great history and the photos are awesome! Reading it and seeing the photos gives you the feeling that you are actually in a museum at the exhibit. Very well written.

The content of the book is great. Has great informative info. And styling it on my self and or table is great too!

Stunning book. Inside is beautiful as well

I got this book for decor but also the history inside and the beautiful neutral color that fits the colors I am leaning towards for my office/glam room. Hair is an important part of the black experience and it is just a cool book to add to your decor.

Gave this to my best friend for Christmas. She loved the photos and illustrations so great that they were included. While she was aware of some of the history, she did learn a few new things. Well written, easy to read (not so "academic").

The art work plus the education was pleasantly surprising! I didn't know exactly what to expect but I'm glad I bought it. My purpose is to show my 2 daughters this. I want them to understand the history and be proud of their hair color & texture. They believe right now at 14 & 15 that they need to fit in with the masses. My hope is to educate them out of that but maybe that'll come in time. Their mom & gma continue to perpetuate the stereotypes of "good hair". We gotta unlearn somethings in what we as a people consider "culture". I got my work cut out for me. Fighting against social pressures and prejudices of family & social media feels so impossible right now.

Beautiful book to add to my collection! Love the brown spine!

Beautiful book. Bought one for myself and one for my mum.

I enjoyed this book , thank you
