Curl connoisseur Charlotte Mensah, whose clientele includes Zadie Smith, is releasing her first book. Good Hair: The essential guide to afro, textured and curly hair launches on 17th September to coincide with World Afro Day and Black History Month.
There’s no doubt that Mensah is an authority in textured hair. In 2018, the award-winning British-Ghanaian hairstylist and Hair Lounge salon owner was the first black woman to be inducted into the British Hairdressing Hall of Fame.
Having spent three decades styling thousands of people from all walks of life, her compendium of textured hair knowledge is a must-have for those who wants to love and care for their curls.
Featuring case studies of clients who came to her looking for a ‘hair fix’, and informed by her own story from apprentice to business-owner, this book dispels common hair myths and gives readers the knowledge and tools to attain good hair health.
Good Hair is the ultimate guide on how to:
– identify and understand your curl texture(s)
– promote hair growth and find good products
– choose the right protective styles
– overcome hair loss, itchiness or dryness
– do styles such as cornrows, locs and bantu knots
