New Book on Natural Hair Care, “Love Train,” Selected for Statewide Circulation by the Cleveland Public Library


Since so Curly so Kinky so Straight - The Salon sponsored The Cleveland Natural Hair Care Expo in February, the salon has successfully secured scores of new clients, garnered lots of media attention, and released the new book, Love Train, recounting the stories of hundreds of “naturals” who have made the transition from chemically treated to chemical-free hair. 

The book is a concise collection of insightful, personal testimonies from women of all stages of natural hair detailing perceptions, misconceptions, challenges, and the newfound freedom of unprocessed tresses vis-à-vis tresses adulterated by harsh substances. It is also chock-full of online resources, organic hair care product information, and professional advice on properly caring for natural and transitioning hair.

This conversational but informative work has also captured the attention of Cleveland Public Library officials, who recently decided to add Love Train to their collection for circulation throughout the state, recognizing the prevalence of interest in natural hair. Patrons will be able to check out Love Train from their local branch beginning April 1, 2012.

Having recently been featured in the Cleveland Plain Dealer as well as Salon Today, Monica Green, the founder and owner of so Curly so Kinky so Straight is eager to use every opportunity to share her natural hair care expertise with the general public.

So Curly So Kinky So Straight is a premier salon committed to providing quality service in a loving, professional atmosphere, furthering the growth and development of the beauty industry, and being a resource to the community.
