"As a new father, Hairlooms is so necessary. We want our little girl to love and enjoy her hair in all of its natural beauty. It’s one thing to want to try different styles; it’s another thing to hate the natural hair you were born with! Hairlooms is an awesome tool to plant self-love in a little girl’s heart during the earliest phases of her life."

—  La Guardia Cross, New Father Chronicles YouTuber

"Wow! Reading Hairlooms was soothing and familiar, like the best scalp massage you’ve ever had . . . the one where the shampoo girl really gets in there and scrubs away a week of worries. Michele’s story is one of vulnerability, discovery, and self-acceptance detangled with words before our eyes. It’s interwoven with stories of other Black women sharing their own hair journey, pains, revelations, and redemptions.  I found myself pulled in by her writing and sliding effortlessly through each chapter like a wide-toothed comb through conditioner-covered tresses. Hairlooms is a brave and beautiful gift to readers who are ready to affirm their own beauty, inside and out."
