Different women will do very different things when interested in a guy. An introverted woman may become even shyer and closed up around a guy she's attracted to, while a more extroverted woman may become overly catty and mean-natured with her teasing toward the man she's smitten with. Sadly, most guys have no idea that an interested woman may act in any of these ways unless they've had considerable experience with the opposite sex.

Hundreds of years ago, the Yoruba people of Nigeria and West Africa were brought to America as slaves. Luckily, they successfully preserved their heritage and ancestral spirits by disguising their deities as Catholic saints. In secret, they worshipped. The result is the new-age religion known as Santería, a blend of Catholicism and African traditional beliefs.

You've always heard that "age is just a number" - now we have the science to prove it. Those wrinkles under your eyes are not simply an inevitable part of the aging process. Actually, those unpleasant surprises in the mirror are a result of the decline in your cellular and hormonal functions. Science shows us that your hormones quickly decline after age 30, leading to a variety of changes in your body, including hair loss, saggy skin, and unwanted facial hair.

A wonderful read (listen) & a wealth of knowledge. Thank you.
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the book, which was incredibly educational, wonderfully narrated and even entertaining. My 'story' was certainly told in this book; however, I am left even the more enthused and encouraged to forge ahead on my 'black hair journey'. I would highly and gladly recommend this to any and all of my sisters of color.
Thank you for your labor of love and selflessness Audrey Davis-Sivasothy!

SO EDUCATIONAL
I am a newly transitioning black woman, being 18 and knowing absolutely nothing about how to take care of my hair this book answered every question I could've asked extremely throughly. Between a mix of this book and some fellow YouTubers my hair is on its way to great lengths. This is definitely a holy grail in black hair care and I know why! I will forever recommend this book to others I met along my journey.
