Review received via email: ""I absolutely love this book; its very simple, detailed and so full of life. This is the first time I have been able to sit down and enjoy reading a book about hair and it was well worth my time. It only took one reading. I only started really taking care of my hair after stumbling across some articles by Heather and immediately subscribed to receive her emails. I now religiously follow her blogs. They are fun and engaging and so so simple to follow through especially reading hair fairytales from queens around the globe. I have been able to reconnect better with my hair through this book and more importantly, take care of it accordingly. I've even shared hair tips with my friends and they've exclaimed to me "it works.."..all thanks to Heather. Thank you so very much for bringing the hair bible to life and I look forward to more hair literature from you.""

Book Description
Have you ever been so overwhelmed by responsibilities or other people’s needs that you forgot to make time for yourself? They say beauty is only skin-deep, but there is power in embracing your outward beauty as the first step in living with internal boldness, confidence, and renewed joy. An outside-in approach to beauty isn’t for other people’s perception of you, but for your interpretation of yourself and how much you’re willing to explore. Sachse has confirmed the unmistakable link between external appearance and self-confidence, and she wants to show you how to rekindle both. In the pages of this book, Sachse offers a vulnerable look into her own mistakes and imperfections and explains how making over her outward appearance resulted in a happier and healthier version of herself—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Filled with confidence-boosting wisdom about cultivating rest and lifegiving hobbies, Sachse shows you: how making small changes to your outward appearance can be a pathway to building confidence and making other new transformations in your life practical tips about hair, makeup, and fashion from an expert the benefits of taking bold risks – your life is too valuable to be left on autopilot how to analyze your past and see where you self-sabotaged, and look for traits that served you well and can serve you in the future Sachse knows no amount of makeup can compare to the look of a confident, classy, and kind woman, and that there’s nothing like the glow that comes from inner beauty. It’s time to discover—or rediscover—who you really are and live your life to the fullest.

Book Description
ABOUT THE BOOK No matter who you are or what walk of life you're from, your hair plays possibly a big role in your overall look. You can hanging out in ratty sweats, but if your hair is well-taken care of, youll still look amazing. However, getting to this point can be difficult for many women; everyone's hair is different, and sadly, nobody's comes with a handbook. Whether they've got a head full of curls or pin-straight locks, most people experience the same problems with their hair at some point in their life. Frizz is the most common, especially in inclement weather, and can make even the best hair look cringe-worthy. And for some reason, women are constantly seeking to create the exact opposite of their hair texture. Those with straight locks long for curls, and those with curly hair attempt to wrangle theirs into submission with a flat iron. Therefore, damage is also a common hair problem. Increasing volume, recovering from a hair dyeing fiasco and controlling dandruff can also afflict just about any hair type, and thinning hair and fading color can put a damper on your self-esteem. The truth is, the solutions to all of these problems are bound to require some trial and error on your part. However, with some time and care, you will be able to bring out the best in your hair. This guide will teach you how to make the most of your naturally stunning locks. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Let's start with too-dark hair. This is common with boxed dye, especially if your hair tends to soak up color rather quickly. If the color is only slightly darker than you wanted, it will likely fade to the desired tone in a week or two. Now, if your chocolate brown turned into a jet black, you'll have to do a little bit of work. Start with washing your hair with dish soap (yes, dish soap) two to three times over the course of a day or two, making sure to use a heavy conditioner after each washing. This needs to be done within 72 hours of the initial dye job, as this is when the color can still be washed out of your hair. If this doesn't work, head to a salon. Do not attempt to re-dye your hair a lighter color: at-home hair dyes cannot usually lift color from your hair, and you can't put a light dye over a dark one. It's akin to coloring with a brown crayon on a black piece of paper. Hair that is too light is relatively easy to fix. Simply apply a slightly darker shade overtop... Buy a copy to keep reading!
