I read this book in 2007 when it came it. It was written by Trisha R. Thomas an African-American woman. It is currently on Netflix which the actress Sanaa Lathan plays.
The book is about a women name Venus Johnson, she has a great job, a live-in boyfriend who is a doctor. But instead, she is living a major lie. She never lets her man see her in her natural way. Her hair is always press and curls to the point he does not see any flaws in her.
Until one day it breaks down. He comes home one day and she thinks he is going to pop the question of marriage. Instead, he brings home a puppy. She accepts it. And later that night she screams, and she gets a razor and cuts all of her hair off. That morning she kicks him out.
She decides to live her life more freely and she becomes much happier than ever.
