We are a society of the iPhone, Internet, and other technological things. We have become so engulfed in this society that we forget the simples things like picking up a book. Yes, I can go to the Internet and type anything about natural, coily, and kinky hair, but nothing beats the knowledge of the hair experts and authors of literature.

My Review:
Short Read And Straight Forward
First of all, I love short books especially if it's informational. I want to get right to the point and Curly Halo does exactly that. The information given does not take 3 chapters just to get to one point. Each chapter has a purpose and gets straight to it. I believe I read this book in 3 days and I surely was taking my time!

Easy To Understand And Light-hearted
I love the personal aspect like "we can do this together." With that being said, it was easy to keep up with the light-heartedness of the book because it was like having a personal conversation with Ms. Kimberly.

Giving Others Props
Curly Halo has a lists of bloggers, websites, YouTube channels, books, and more that is referenced to be a great help in a natural hair journey. I absolutely love this about this book. There is so much information that can be overwhelming, but with a list to start from (and even to look back on) for help is a great resource to have...instead of being scattered everywhere.

Natural Hair Terminology
When I was a newbie naturalista, I would have liked to have a list of "natural hairisms" in one place. There are so many acronyms and not-so-basics natural hair terms that would have come in handy for me. So speaking on behalf of the newbie naturalistas, this list is definitely appreciated!
Workbook Pages
I am definitely an advocate of keeping a Hair Diary. Curly Halo has workbook pages to complete in order for the user to keep up with his/her hair journey and to see how the health of the hair has changes.
