Meet Jelaya (jeh-LAY-uh.) Shehateswash day.

The tugs! The scrubs! The pinching and pulling! Jelaya can't think of a worse way to spend the day. That is, until her big sister Jazmin explains thatthis wash day will be different. Jelaya is going to wash Jazmin's hair instead!

Wash Dayis a sweet and honest exploration of the beauty and tradition of wash days.

Offering gentle guidance and framing the all-day affair as an act of self-care, this picture book also serves as an avenue to demystify and educate others on natural haircare routines, which are often misunderstood and stigmatized.
