Remember in your middle school history class, when you learned about the Dutch East India Company? They would travel all over Asia and India for spices to ship on the spice route to the New World. You’re probably wondering where all this hair is coming from. You will never see anyone on TV sporting their own God-given hair, unless it’s on, like a sad miniseries about factory workers in East Germany.

The color, the length, the thickness, everything. The first thing you need to know is that the hair on your head is worthless.

#MINDLY KALING BOOK HOW TO#
Want to know how to look like a Hollywood starlet? She recommends hiring a team of highly paid hair and makeup people, plus a lighting guy to follow you around all day so the shadows that hit your face are flattering. She’s less neurotic than the character she plays on The Mindy Project but just as funny, and she’s wonderfully honest and self-deprecating. Reading Mindy Kaling’s new book feels a lot like sitting down and talking to your best friend or rather, by the time you’re done, you wish Kaling was your best friend.
