From the author of Good Hair and Plaited Glory comes an irreverent, daring guide that challenges the notion that beauty comes only in one color, size, and shape. Both a practical handbook and an overdue celebration of the various forms which beauty takes, The Kitchen Beautician offers how-tos for making skin- and hair-care regimens at a fraction of what the salon charges. 50 photos. 15 line drawings.
Like Ms. Bonner's other two books (I have both), this book is straight to the point and informative. It touches on many issues that are important to Black women. I especially liked the section on the homemade and natural skin care remedies. They are easy to make and don't require a long search for the ingredients. She talks about the proper way to wash your face and how to avoid the dreaded "ash" problem. I have recommended this book to many of my friends and family and they all loved it. Hope you will enjoy this book as much as I have !!
