Summary: Known and admired for her natural hair, actress T\'Keyah Crystal Keymah shares her secrets in, Natural Woman/ Natural Hair: A Hair Journey. Infused with Keymah\'s holistic lifestyle approach, the book is a natural hair care style guide with poetic prose and step-by-step instructions on caring for your hair. More than thirty natural hairstyles include twisting, braiding, corn rowing, knotting and sculpturing natural (unprocessed) hair - loose and locked. The book is a lyrical contribution to the history of African American hair, written for children, women and men considering wearing their hair naturally (or styling their children\'s hair naturally) but don\'t know where to start. It is also for those who are looking for new styles and new styling and hair care tips. \"I believe that when goddess designed our bodies, she used the best ingredients from our ancestors to create the very best body temple for our souls... I hope the book will inspire more women to celebrate the wonder, beauty and versatility of their natural (nappy, curly, coiled...) hair.\"
