Beautiful, wonderful, stunning, gorgeous.
This was a spectacular graphic novel in both words and ilustrations. I loved that the different stories featured color palettes to reflect the mood/nature of the story being told. As someone who does not have textured hair requiring much care, I was fascinated by the intensive process to just wash hair, let alone styling or braiding it.
