Better Than Good Hair: A Review

February 7, 2013

The topic of hair is such a potent one. It’s political, social, cultural, sexual, and, above all, very personal and emotional.”Kim Wayans

In the preceding quote, Kim Wayans succinctly captures why curlies all over the world have been waiting for Better Than Good Hair by Nikki Walton of curlynikki.com.  If you can’t tell we’ve been waiting, check out how fast it’s selling out!

Walton’s book provides information on every stage of natural hair from the big chop, to achieving “hang time,” to styling your own curly daughters.  Ever wondered how some naturals get their hair so healthy? And how do some women manage to make a style last for a week? What are your style options with a TWA (teeny weeny afro)? Better Than Good Hair answers all of these questions and more.  Styling is just the tip of the iceberg. Nikki’s book covers the emotional aspects of going natural. What will my family think? What about career/professional perceptions? What if my hair is nappier than I expected?

Most importantly, by incorporating stories, advice and tips from other naturals, Walton’s book captures the essence of the natural hair journey as both personal and communal.  Better Than Good Hair will unearth a plethora of natural hair care information. What might surprise some newcomers to the natural hair community is that it will also reveal a world of curlfriends and sisterhood. And that…is Better Than Good Hair.

Better Than Good Hair, Nikki Walton
