First of all, I want to start out saying that I have approx 5 1/2 inches of natural hair and I was looking for a book that had pictures of styles and instructions of what to do with natural hair. All the book talked about was how to put in extensions and the different kinds. The writing was extremely poor and there were several spelling and editing errors. Someone looking for natural hair styles without mostly talking about extensions would be better off buying Pamela Ferrel's "Let's Talk Hair", which was my own personl hair bible.

In MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION "The Kink Kollection" is not even worth spending $1 on never mind the nearly $25 spent. The only valuable info is in the last couple of pages where she tells you the business aspects of how to start a natural hair care salon. You can get that info on the internet without spending $25.

The Kink Collection is not a 'how to' book for natural hair care. I say this in my first sentence because if that is your goal you can keep going to another book. I have chemical free hair and I am always on the look out for books discussing nappy/kinky hair and so I thought I had found one here. The book does have some basic info on hair care but if you want the Bible of chemical free hair care you should purchase "Let's Talk Hair" by Pamela Ferrell and get enough info to really properly maintain your hair.

While it was short of real technique info on basic hair care it did have some beautiful photos of natural hair styles. As another reviewer stated, they used extensions but I have managed to achieve some of the styles without the use of extensions. It was good to get some different ideas on how to style my hair and you can't beat that. Don't get too excited because there aren't that many pics but what they do have is of good quality.

Three is a lot of info in the back of the book on state licensing organizations and a check list of what you want to do if you are starting your own hair care business. So while that wasn't my interest I still kept the book....

The kink Kollection is written by an individual who takes pride in the maintenance of natural hair! If you are one of those people who would rather do without processed hair, but still want lovely hair, this is the book for you! The author gives detailed illustrations on how to obtain and maintain your natural hairdo! Anyone can do these hairstyles on themselves or a friend!This approach saves money as well! .....................
