Hair as Healing: Felicia Leatherwood's Root Therapy | Jacksonville News

Celebrity hairstylist Felicia Leatherwood drops her powerful new book Root Therapy, where she weaves hair stories into a spiritual journey of healing, trauma, and self-discovery for Black women. After four years gathering raw, real-life narratives, she reveals how styling hair became more than beauty—it was therapy. From childhood hair “torture” with her grandmother to braiding by candlelight while working double shifts, Leatherwood’s path led her to celebrity clients and a Beverly Hills salon. Now, Issa Rae opens the audiobook, inviting listeners to find themselves in her pages—and maybe even cry a little.
