Want Fab Curls? Buy this book! - By: Silversheen, 14 Nov 2008 
I bought this book about 6 years ago when I lived in the states. I was looking for a website on how to care for curly hair. I thought I had wavy hair with lots of frizz & usuallly dealt with it by pulling it back into a pony tail. However, after finding this book recommended on a website, I bought it & followed the advice & found I had a headful of gorgeous, wonderful botticelli curls. I've never looked back.

A MUST for curlies - By: , 04 May 2004 From reading this book, I now know that I was a wavy girl who, in failing to deal with the wave, cut my thick wavy hair very short for 20 years. Deciding to grow my hair at the age of 32, I didn't know what to do with the thick wiry mass that appeared. I bought endless expensive products to solve the 'problem'. However, this book has changed alll that, & I now realise that the products, not my hair, were the problem! Demand that your hairdresser cuts your hair dry. Avoid sulphates & silicones in hair products, 'wash' with a tiny amount of very cheap conditioner (infrequently), comb with fingers only, turn your head upside down & apply a light, clear, silicone free gel, & watch your hair become manageable, soft & curly! It works! It may be obvious advice for some readers, but it wasn't obvious for me, & it has saved me pounds in my pocket & hours of my life! Four stars because the only thing I dislike about the book is that it is bulked up with 'tongue in cheek' confessions from 'curly girls'. I loathe this confessional sort of thing, would prefer to be a 'curly woman', but realise that I'm probably too old, grey & curly to appreciate curly humour...
Great advice for product-abusers! - By: , 27 Mar 2004 I found this book to be informative & helpful. After trying a few of the home remedies, I am now a convert to the strategy that this book describes. The author has included some great interviews with curly-haired girls & even though some of them sound way-out, it's good to read how others have dealt with their unruly & frustrating hair! Well worth it.
