Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

A programme devoted to the history, politics and colour of hair. We explore how it's been used to indicate status, power and politics throughout the ages and across cultures. We focus on the lengths and money some black women will go to achieve longer, smoother straighter 'good hair' using relaxers, weaves and wigs and also how many women refuse to go grey.
