Since its original publication, All About Health and Beauty for the Black Woman has firmly established itself as a classic reference in both the fields of health and beauty. Now, in this newly revised and expanded edition, Naomi Sims—famed model and beauty expert—brings Black women of all ages up to date with the latest information on aging of the face and body; makeup; hairstyles; exercise and diet; coping with stress; and dressing to succeed in the business arena.

In addition, she provides new information on dental care; ways of preventing weight gain after giving up smoking; and dealing with drug problems. An important and timely revision, this is the essential guide to health and beauty for all Black women.

This book, while dated, still has some wonderful advice for black women. It would be amazing if the publishing company would have someone update this book.

Oh yes yes yes. This is a classic with great advice from a top model growing up in segregated times. So the information here is very diverse and may alert some. If you want to know about why vintage ladies were so fabulous, this book is worth the read
