Words have power, and those that Black women often use to describe their hair are derogatory: nappy, steel wool, out of control. They often personally inherit these terms and pass them along without even realizing the crushing effects these words have on their feelings about the person they see in the mirror.

Now owned by L'Oreal, Price is still at the helm of this growing business. Jane Carter--A professional hair stylist/colorist and salon owner, she fou
