“hair night,” summary
On Saturday nights, grandmother does Odella and Jacqueline's hair in the kitchen. Smells of biscuits and burning hair mix because the way grandmother does the girls' hair is by heating up a comb and then using it to straighten their curls. Even though it is a painful process, Jacqueline can forget her discomfort when Odella reads stories to her.
