Sobre este título

 Bloomsbury presents How to Love Your Afro, written and read by Paige Lewin

"More than a hair manual – it's a mindset shift." Zeze Millz
"The embodied and tender guide that every Black woman needs." Kelechi Okafor

At fourteen, Paige Lewin begged her mum for her first relaxer - convinced that straight hair was her ticket to beauty and acceptance. What followed were years of damage, frustration, and a deep disconnect from her natural texture. Wigs, weaves and chemical treatments became her armour - until she realised she was hiding from her true self. Now, as the host of Texture Talks, Paige has not only reclaimed her Afro hair but uncovered deeper truths about self-worth, identity, and healing.

Inside How to Love Your Afro, you’ll learn how to:
- Shift your mindset and language to transform your relationship with your hair
- Break free from Eurocentric beauty standards and embrace self-acceptance
- Choose the best products, tools, and techniques to nourish your Afro
- Understand the link between hair health, diet, and overall wellbeing
- Partner effectively with professionals like dermatologists and trichologists
- Turn your hair care routine into an act of self care

With expert insights from integrative psychotherapist Tasha Bailey, dermatologist Dr. Yvonne Abimbola, and Revlon Professional colour and curl specialist Rio Agor Watts, this book takes a holistic approach to natural hair - addressing both the emotional and practical sides of the journey. If you’ve ever struggled to love your curls, felt overwhelmed by products, or wondered if your natural hair was “enough,” How to Love Your Afro is your empowering companion to self-acceptance, healing, and authentic beauty.©2025 Paige Lewin (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Desenvolvimento Pessoal
