A friend breakup is healed at a twentieth high school reunion in this women’s fiction novel that is “as slick and enjoyable as a brand-new tube of lip gloss” (People). Twenty years ago, Allie Denty was the pretty one and her best friend Olivia Pelham was the smart one. Throughout high school, they were inseparable . . . until a vicious rumor about Olivia—a rumor too close to the truth—ended their friendship. Now, on the eve of their twentieth high school reunion, Allie, a temp worker, finds herself suddenly single, a little chubby, and feeling old. Olivia, a cool and successful magazine beauty editor in New York, realizes she’s lonely, and is finally ready to face her demons. Sometimes hope lives in the future; sometimes it comes from the past; and sometimes, when every stupid thing goes wrong, it comes from a prettily packaged jar filled with scented cream and promises. New York Times–bestselling author Beth Harbison has done it again. A hilarious and touching novel about friendship, Love’s Baby Soft perfume, Watermelon Lip Smackers, bad run-ins with Sun-In, and the healing power of “Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific.” Hope in a Jar: we all need it. “Harbison continues to wow readers with charm and genuine characters.” —Booklist ”Harbison creates vivid, convincing characters and handles them well.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Description
Awakening Hair - Caring for Your Cosmic Antenna is about experiencing new Hair Dynamics creating magic in your life. Some people think of hair simply as dead cells hanging off their head. Awakening Hair invites you to experience hair as an extension of our living selves, profoundly affected by our biological functions, hair care practices, environmental impacts, and even our thoughts. Hair can also be experienced as cosmic antenna, able to receive and transmit information and energy. It can function as a sixth sense. Awakening Hair reveals nature's guidance that will help you realize your most enlivened hair ever. Beginning with The Power of Hair Gardening, the wisdom in each chapter will help you grow, achieve and maintain the healthiest hair possible using life enhancing practices. Understanding what kind of hair you have, the benefits of nature's elements, and the cycles of the seasons, sun and moon, will create a new improved, relationship with your hair. We have all experienced 'bad hair days'. Studies at Yale University have shown that bad hair days diminish self-confidence, and increase feelings of shame, self-doubt, social insecurity and self-criticism. You can discover how to end 'bad hair days', create 'great hair days' leading to a happier life. In Awakening Hair you can determine the style of hair care that suits you best, and design your Personal Hair Care Improvement plan. Along with Five Easy Steps to Sustainable Hair Care, this will streamline your experience with your hair. To make finding the right products for your hair even easier, you will find a guide alerting you to the ingredients you most want to avoid. Awakening Hair may be your introduction to Hair Balancing, the holistic healing art that cuts hair with a precise pattern of sacred geometry. It is based on the principles and points of acupuncture and cranio-sacral therapy and is most noted for releasing hair trauma, reducing hair loss, enhancing hair growth, and making hair happy!
