<p><strong>"Hair Matters" by Elaine Becker is a collection of stories and humorous observations meant to pay homage to the fibrous strands of protein that make up the hair on our heads</strong>. It is a personal account of a stylist and educator, who came late to the profession, at age sixty two, and describes the impact hair had in her life, decades past and present. Hair styles are barometers of culture and help define who we are.&nbsp; Those amazing strands are a metaphor and symbol of life's journey. &nbsp;How you look and feel connects powerfully to your hair.</p>
