this really made me smile. all my life i’ve had really curly hair that my parents didn’t know how to handle so i’d get braids up until i started middle school and was straightening my hair every month causing so much damage that i thought i’d have to do a big chop. thankfully, i didn’t have too and and i’m almost two years into not relying on straightening my hair. i loved that her dad did her little puffs, twists, and even gave her a little afro <3

Excuse me while I cry about this absolutely adorable book about family and love and extra special hairstyles.

Adorable, wonderful, and REAL! It's so nice to read a book aimed specifically at kids of color that doesn't make them feel different or out of the ordinary. I also loved the family dynamic, implying that Mom works and Dad stays at home with Zuri. A real representation of family and self-love.

both this and the short film were adorable! Black girls definitely deserve to know that their hair is beautiful! it follows a dad and his daughter trying to do her hair.

It's up to Daddy to give his daughter an extra-special hair style in this story of self-confidence and the love between fathers and daughters. Zuri knows her hair is beautiful, but it has a mind of its own. It kinks, coils, and curls every which way. Mum always does Zuri's hair just the way she likes it - so when Daddy steps in to style it for an extra special occasion, he has a lot to learn. But he LOVES his Zuri, and he'll do anything to make her - and her hair - happy. Tender and empowering, Hair Loveis an ode to loving your natural hair - and a celebration of daddies and daughters everywhere.
