review 1: My sister-in-law bought me this book on Kindle and I am eternally grateful to her for this gift. As a new natural (big chop in Feburary 2013), the book provides a wealth of information. Not only for the newly natural but for anyone thinking of going natural, the transitioner, or someone who has been natural for a while. What I like in particular, is that the information is condensed in one place. There are many, many websites, blogs, and YouTube videos out there with lots of information. However, it is nice to have one central place of reference along with the author's site curlynikki.com. There is information on products you can buy as well as DIY information. Good job, Nikki and thank you for the education on everything related to natural hair.

Excellent guide for natural hair. I've been natural for years and it still gave me some new ideas!

none of this information is new or original but she compiled it, so that's helpful.
