Review: Healthy Hair Rehab Now! 3 Steps to Fabulous Healthy Hair by Jacqueline Tarrant

4 stars for Healthy Hair Rehab Now! 3 Steps to Fabulous Healthy Hair by Jacqueline Tarrant.

I communicated with colleague-turned-friend J lately and was told that she has expected me to post a review on the last day of last month to make it a high 5. That and also that the last day of last month happened to be a leap day, a date that usually occurs every four years, which makes this date all the more special. Her comments sent a wave of emotions over me. First, pleasure, then regret, and finally nonchalance.

It is certainly a pleasure to know that someone has been checking out my review blog every now and then. There is nothing sadder than floating around out there like a spectre in cyberspace, all alone, talking and writing to yourself. It feels good to know that at least my writings have not been in vain. But as the happy feeling faded off, it was soon replaced by regret. Yes, it was a pity indeed that I could not make it in time to post a review, any review, on the 29th February of this year. Frankly speaking, it comes as no surprise to me that Friend J has this expectation because it would have been mine too. But that would have been the old me. The old me would have strived to finish reading no matter what and made sure a review was posted right on that rare leap day. As the feeling of regret eased off, the new me gave a nonchalant shrug. It did not matter, not that much anyway. A date is just a date. It is enough to know that on this 29th February, I finished reading two books. Hey! Not one but two, ok. The reason my reviews could not have seen daylight was because I was not able to find the time to sit down and put my thoughts and writing in order. The new me takes it easy. No rush job will do. I am no longer willing to stress myself up over such self-imposed posting deadline and risk losing hair over it. Speaking of which, my review is on this book that stresses that every strand matters. I cannot agree more. Seriously.

Hair is a very important aspect of our lives. It is not only a matter of physical appearance, our hair also connects us to our emotional beauty. In today's world, the hair experience is very powerful, not just for women, but men as well. Both men and women place a lot of self-esteem to their hair, so it should never be dismissed as something trivial. A bad hair day, literally and figuratively, can have a devastating impact on any individual. Ask any adult, woman especially, and the likelihood of her nodding her head wholeheartedly is almost guaranteed.

Healthy Hair Rehab Now! is a book written on hair and its related issues for women and men alike. What makes this topic so relevant is that at some point in time, almost everyone will be concerned with hair thinning or hair loss. This day may come later for some, but for many, it may arrive earlier than expected. Hair problem is a mystery and will remain so when we do not seek to understand the underlying causes. Only by understanding the root cause of hair problems can we take steps to avoid, prevent, overcome or even slow down the process of hair damage, breakage, thinning and loss. To this effect, the author uses an interesting approach to shed light on hair issues, encouraging readers to look beyond the surface of the problem and to probe deeper. The writer also emphasizes the importance of knowing our personal hair facts such as the hair condition, texture, type and density, as they can help to improve and maximize our hair's style, health and beauty. Most important of all, this heightened awareness of our own hair and thus health will help to give us a sense of peace.

The condition of our hair is a good indicator of the condition of our health. If you have the unfortunate experience of strand fallout, or worse still, been in an ongoing battle with hair problems, I will highly recommend reading this book. It may not answer all your questions but at the very least, you will learn what it takes to have a truly healthy head of hair.

How well do you know your hair?

What is the book Healthy Hair Rehab all about? Having grown up in my mother's salons, and experiencing the ups and downs women go through with their hair, I realized early on that any kind of hair trauma could be a game changer for that woman. I also could see how bad hair days or bad hair experiences greatly impacted women's lives. Some even felt depressed and had poor self esteem when their hair was in long term troubled stages. My mother was a natural hair healer and restored the hair and the spirit of those she helped. I knew this is what I wanted to do and made my career all about that; educating on preventive measures, hair care, nutrition to nurture the hair and early detection of possible health issues revealed in the hair's reaction to physical imbalance. Since I could not possibly have a personal consult with every person going through a hair dilemma, writing the book Healthy Hair Rehab is my way of sharing that message. I've laid out a different approach to hair problems.

Healthy Hair Rehab is a reference and guide to help achieve and maintain the healthiest hair possible. It is also a conversation starter, to initiate discussions with beauty and health providers about hair concerns that go beyond split ends. Topics covered include:
