misuse, bully and try to change our hair in a misguided effort to control
or manage it. We spend money, time and energy on weaving, waving, straightening,
blow-drying and curling, as we salon hop to find a way to have better
hair. Then, we decide this is too much trouble and we cut our hair off
and start over. No matter what we end up with, we still hate our hair.
