'The most powerful woman in British beauty' Daily Mail

'This woman is the best advert for the advice she gives to all of us' Ruth Langsford

If there is one thing my experience in the beauty industry has taught me, it's that a beauty regime should be as individual as you are. Having no cosmetic work myself allows me to truly understand what results are achievable for people at home.

Trusted and award-winning beauty expert Alison Young has worked in the industry for over 35 years. She has pretty much tried every beauty product on the market so you don't have to, and she knows what works and what doesn't. Her no-nonsense approach cuts through the hard sell and tells it how it is. Whether you want to look fresher or younger, need advice on brows, haircare or body basics, or struggle with skin issues such as dry skin, oily skin or a more serious condition, Alison has the answer.

With this book, you will never waste money on beauty products again; instead, you will be able to look and feel your best self, every day. Find out:

- The insider secrets that supercharge your daily routine, whatever your skin type

- How to manage (and embrace) signs of ageing

Alison is one of the most respected experts in the British beauty industry

—— Elsa McAlonan , Daily Mail

A triumph! Refeshingly accessible, enlightening and thorough ... an impeccably researched journey into our Black Hair and the ideas and feelings that have surrounded it, to this day.

—— Yrsa Daley-Ward

Sensational

—— Women's Health

Pulled together with meticulous research, Don't Touch My Hair is an unmissable read by a writer who's set to become a household name

—— Francesca Brown , Stylist

The first book from one of Ireland's brightest literary talents, Don't Touch My Hair brilliantly deconstructs western views of everything from beauty to social value systems, and even to our understanding of time, all through the lens of how African cultures value hair.

—— Hotpress

Groundbreaking...Her sources are rich, diverse and sometimes heartbreaking. Some books make us feel seen and for me, that is what Don't Touch My Hair does. I would urge everyone to read it

—— Charlie Brinkhurst-Cuff , Guardian

An excellent and far reaching book...a call to arms for black African culture

—— Irish Times

A powerful and arrestingly relatable account of the rich history of Afro hair that seamlessly interweaves her personal perspective with meticulously researched historical facts

—— Metro

Dabiri's brilliant book recognises that black hair - particularly women's hair - is charged with social and racial significance
