Johnson shares her own hair story and amplifies the voices of Black women across the globe who, after years of chemically relaxing their hair, return to a “natural†style. She powerfully illustrates how the natural hair movement is part of a larger social change among Black women to assert their own purchasing power, standards of beauty, and bodily autonomy.
