Book excerpt: Sweet Girls, Life is an incredible thing. You deserve to live a life full of self-love and confidence, secure in the knowledge that you are enough. But unfortunately, sometimes we feel as if we have to fit in and conform to others’ expectations of beauty. If you believe you need to change who you are to be beautiful, then we must change the conversation about beauty culture. Believe me when I say, Sweet Girl, you are, without a doubt, enough. Love, H Her Story is a proactive approach to preparing our girls for the cultural milestones they will encounter as they navigate the obstacle course known as puberty. With humor, personal narrative and historical perspective, Stark guides girls and their parents through the histories of makeup, hair-removal practices, fashion, bras, hair trends and even friendships. She breaks down these cultural mindsets in easy-to-read, understandable terms. She helps girls and parents understand that these practices should be options, not expectations.
