I would like to see more tips on how to make your hair healthy, and also more interviews of people that have healthy hair.

Basically the principles of LHCF in magazine form :grin:.

50 bucks a month give or take.

I stopped going. My last visit was in 2006

Do you buy black hair magazines?
No!

If so do you find there is anything lacking in them that you would wish to read?

Would you be interested in a book specifically about black hair and skin care?
There are a lot of books on that stuff already. But for some reason its more intresting to learn black hair/skin care on hair boards than reading about it in a book all alone.

If so how much would you be willing to pay for this book?
Well i mean i learn everything on here/online. So if its telling me something new that i have not learned on here, then i would say 20-30 bucks is a good price if it has unspoken information.

Where would you be most likely to read a book like this?
In my spare time, when i'm not on here.

Do you attend any specialist beauty trade shows?
No, wish i could!

If so which ones?

I dont. Havent been to one in two years and dont plan on it (lost confidence in hair dressers) I have considered going to super cuts 4 professional dusting but thats about it.

I dont buy. I glance at them in BSS and most styles seem to cater to relaxed heads and im natural.

How much do you spend a month or hair care products, including wigs or weaves?

I only buy products when I need them so I don't have a monthly budget. The past three months I've spend $0. Next month, I may spend $20. It all depends.

How often do you go to hair salons?

3-4 times a year for touch ups only.

Do you buy black hair magazines?

I used to but not anymore. I used to primarily get Sophisticates Black Hair and occasionally Hype Hair. I figured since I wear my hair in a bun 365 days out of the year and I can't style my hair to save my life, I could put $4-5 to a better use :lol:.

If so do you find there is anything lacking in them that you would wish to read?

When I did buy them, I wished there were more "how to's" and for those "how to's" to include specific product recommendations.

Would you be interested in a book specifically about black hair and skin care?

I don't know. I've read so much about both topics and still my hair and skin are not where I want them to be.

If so how much would you be willing to pay for this book?

I'd wait until it was available at the library and check it out for free :lol:

Okay, depending upon the thickness of the book. If it were some paperback, I wouldn't be paying more than $10 for it including shipping.

Where would you be most likely to read a book like this?

Where? In my house :perplexed.

How much do you spend a month or hair care products, including wigs or weaves? $20-$30

How often do you go to hair salons?Once a year for braids

Do you buy black hair magazines? No

If so do you find there is anything lacking in them that you would wish to read? I find there is quite a lot lacking in them. Their main focus seems to be on styling the hair as opposed to caring for it (e.g., what causes breakage, what can one do to solve breakage, what does it mean to moisturize, what causes split ends, etc.)

Would you be interested in a book specifically about black hair and skin care?yes

How much do you spend a month or hair care products, including wigs or weaves?

10 -15 dollars monthly except on relaxer month (which is every three months). I pay for the relaxers for myself, my mother, and my daughter and I spend between $180 and $200 that month :perplexed.

How often do you go to hair salons?
Every three months unless it's a special occasion and I have to look polished.

Do you buy black hair magazines?
No.

If so do you find there is anything lacking in them that you would wish to read?
I stopped reading them because they all had the same information in them every month and they never told you how to make your hair health. When I realized they were in it for the money and not writing articles that were in my best interest I stop buying.

Would you be interested in a book specifically about black hair and skin care?
Yes

How much do you spend a month or hair care products, including wigs or weaves? i usually buy all of my hair products one time .. so every 6 months I would probably spend $500 = $250 US

How much do you spend a month or hair care products, including wigs or weaves?
about $60.00 (I spend $30.00 a month on henna)

How often do you go to hair salons?
Never

Do you buy black hair magazines?
No

If so do you find there is anything lacking in them that you would wish to read?
I don't buy them because of the limited content. They seem more geared towards relaxed and weaved styles. The few that have a section for natural styles usually focus on braids. Overall they tend to be focused on hair styles rather than healthy hair care practices.

Would you be interested in a book specifically about black hair and skin care?
Yes, as long as the information was on point. I would be interested in a book that does a good treatment of natural hair and skin care.

If so how much would you be willing to pay for this book?
If it was really good I wouldn't mind spending $25.00

Where would you be most likely to read a book like this?
At home

Do you attend any specialist beauty trade shows?
There is a natural hair show in Chicago that I went to this year and plan to go to annually for as long as it is going on.

If so which ones?
See above answer.
