Book Reviews of Ultra Black Hair Growth II 2000 Edition
Book Review: Good book with great advice!
Summary: 5 Stars
After having researched the subject matter of this book, I found that there really isn't much out there on the subject of black hair GROWTH. I reviewed customer reviews on this book, I read her entire website, and finally, I though, "why not?" So, I went ahead and ordered it. I read it all in a single two-day weekend, and I was ready to begin. Being an age 23 African American with all natural hair, it's been tough getting into a new routine of caring for my hair through Cathy Howse's methods and techniques, but thus far, it's been for the very best. Howse's tips are rejected by many because she doesn't discuss style, rather care for the hair. Her techniques go against what has been taught and practiced by our culture for many years. But for the first time in my life, I see with my own hair that going against the grain isn't always a bad thing. My own hair is a lot more healthy, ther eis near-to-no breakage at all; I owe it to Howse's research and advice. Buy the book; stick with the techniques...you'll soon see.Book Review: ~Buy This Book..Follow Her Advice B/c It Works!!!~
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book in one sitting....It's a lot of common sense knowledge...Things you'd think "we'd" know already...But, Cathy really did put a lot of things in perspective..I've read the negative reviews on here..And everyone is entitled to their own opinions..But I'm glad that when I read the reviews I didn't listen to the negative ones!!!..I'm sure plenty of african american women have grown their hair without the use of her products and her advice....But I never could not until I read her book and starting using her products..When I first started using her products my hair was above my neck..It was very damaged and I had severe breakage!...Now after only 1 year and half it's below the back of my bra and healthier than it's ever been in my life!!!...If you follow her advice and use her products you will have a healthy head of hair that flows down your back...Even if you don't use her products just following her advice will dramatically change the length and health of your hair!!!Book Review: Tested and achieved
Summary: 5 Stars
I have faithfully followed every word in this book for a year as of January 1, 2003.I would like to say it has worked, I started with a Halle Berry haircut and my hair is over the towel that I use to wrap myself with. Not only is it long, full, and extremely healthly I also haven't had a TRIM but once in that year. The key is to be Consistent, and make sure you're following every step to the point of taking your vitamins that contain Iron and Zinc. Also if I have a question, I e-mail Cathy and she responds immediately. Also her conditioner is excellent which is one of the keys. I tried many different conditioners and I can say it's perfect for our hair condition. This system will protect you from hairdressers who know nothing about taking care of hair. They are trained to do your hair how you want it, Not to take the consistent time to grow it. So I would recommend those who have the book to try again and e-mail Cathy with questions you may have. This is a learning process.Book Review: A must read
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read both Cathy Howse book and Shamboosie. Both I found to be very informative although quite contradictary in some areas. Overall, both are good read. I think every woman trying to achieve that long hair should read this book instead of weaving. I know tons of black people that will tell you not to wash your hair often because your hair needs those oils and dirt in your hair and scalp. There are a lot of old myths in the black community that cathy discredits and if people would just open there minds and try her techniques instead of holding on to same old same old such as don't wash your hair too often and the scalp must be greased daily and so forth and there can be a revolution regarding hair in the black community. For those of you still skeptical you have been trying to grow your hair this long and you have found the book because of that reason so why not try her techniques and use her advice. Just do what she says and I do believe it will work for you.Book Review: IT WORKS!!!!

I gained so much from this book. She debunked a lot of myths like getting trims don't make your hair grow or any healthier, it just makes your hair look nice esthetically. I haven't had a trim in over a year and my hair is the longest I ever remember it being.Of course you have to take good care of your hair to prevent dryness and split ends but If you follow her advice, your hair will grow and become healthier.
And you don't have to use her hair care products. I don't but I bought products that follow her suggested credentials and my hair has FLOURISHED. I get compliments on my hair a lot. My dad didn't think I could grow long hair! People ask me all the time what I do to get my hair so nice looking and long and tell them to read this book. I was skeptical at first but since my hair had never seemed to grow past my shoulders, I figured I had nothing to lose. It may not work for everyone but at least try it. Follow her advice and you will see results.
