I didn't realize that this book was mostly about the road to locking. I was looking for a variety of stories talking about people's experiences to natural hair, not just wearing locks as a style option.

I eagerly looked forward to reading this book as I'm an avid reader and collector of natural hair care publications. Unfortunately, the book was printed in an uncommon font that did not permit me to fully enjoy the book. After reading blocks and blocks of paragraphs in this font, the words practically became indecipherable to me. I wondered why in the world would this author choose this font rather than Times Roman or some other standard font. It made the book's contents look amateurish. In summary, if you can get past the font, the book is a nice collection of keeping-it-real sisters sharing stories about transitioning to wearing natural hairstyles.

This book had it all!! A little History about our hair, info on locking and wonderful personel journies. The unconvential font was a nice touch...seemed less formal. I highly recommend this book for those thinking about the transition as well as for those already there....the stories will take you back!!
