Hello everyone!
Taiye Selasi is an award-winning African writer whose been previously featured on one of our posts on African writers. She recently partnered with Dove Hair on its Love Your Curls campaign to create a digital book to promote the beauty and increase the awareness of natural hair.
It's actually a compilation of personal stories, photos and journeys of thousands of women who have contributed to this campaign by submitting them. Selasi's job was to convert these stories into a book of poems.
According to her, if 54% of women aren't still comfortable with their curls, then we still have a lot of work to do and I totally agree.
Hopefully, this book would inspire more people to embrace their kinky hair in all its glory.
What do you think about natural hair books? Do you think more writers should write more books on natural hair? Do books have a role to play? Share your thoughts!
Love, kinks and knots.
