Tenderheaded: A Comb-Bending Collection of Hair Stories Paperback - 2002
by Juliette Harris (Editor); Pamela Johnson (Editor); Ntozake Shange (Illustrator)
Ranging from the shaving of newborns to the coiffing of the dead, from the anecdotal to the scholarly, and from antebellum America to contemporary Africa, this remarkable array of writings and images illuminates black women's hair and its cultural meaning.
First line
In the beginning, the story goes, nobody had hair.
