From the best-selling author of Persepolis comes this gloriously entertaining and enlightening look into the sex lives of Iranian women. Embroideries gathers together Marjane's tough-talking grandmother, stoic mother, glamorous and eccentric aunt and their friends and neighbors for an afternoon of tea drinking and talking. Naturally, the subject turns to love, sex and the vagaries of men.

As the afternoon progresses, these vibrant women share their secrets, their regrets and their often outrageous stories about, among other things, how to fake one's virginity, how to escape an arranged marriage, how to enjoy the miracles of plastic surgery and how to delight in being a mistress. By turns revealing and hilarious, these are stories about the lengths to which some women will go to find a man, keep a man or, most important, keep up appearances.

Full of surprises, this introduction to the private lives of some fascinating women, whose life stories and lovers will strike us as at once deeply familiar and profoundly different from our own, is sure to bring smiles of recognition to the faces of women everywhere--and to teach us all a thing or two.

Great product & it does exactly as advertised
Scent: Keratin, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My go to product for heat protection, easy comb thru, detangling, softness & shine. You can use it after a wash & condition , before or after blow drying, & before heat services such as flat iron. It has a nice fragrance , a lightweight feel, & does not feel oily afterwards. You will see & feel a difference in the softness, shine, & body of the hair with the first use. It’s a great product to help maintain & retain hair growth. It even softens the skin on your hands. I love this product & it’s a good value for the price. I highly recommend it.

Keratin Hair Serum – Heat Protection
Scent: Keratin, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This keratin hair serum has a lightweight texture that spread easily through damp hair without feeling greasy. During heat styling, it seemed to smooth strands and left hair looking shinier compared with un-treated sections. The applicator made it simple to distribute the serum from roots to ends without excess product buildup. In terms of protection, my hair appeared to handle blow-drying and flat-ironing without visible dryness or frizz afterward. It also rinsed out cleanly and did not make hair feel weighed down, which helped keep my overall styling routine manageable. On the downside, the scent was noticeable and may not suit people who prefer very mild or fragrance-free products. Additionally, while my hair looked smoother, the results were not as dramatic as some higher-end serums I’ve used before. Overall, this keratin heat-protective serum offers a balance of smoothness and ease of use for routine styling, and it could be a good everyday choice for those looking to add a bit of polish before using heat tools.

Amaizing result
Scent: Rosemary, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Amazing Results – My Hair Feels Healthier and Softer! I’ve purchased this Rosemary & Mint Hair Repair Oil a couple of times now, and I’m genuinely impressed. After just a few uses, my frizz was noticeably reduced, and my scalp felt refreshed. The serum is lightweight, non-greasy, and has a soothing minty scent that makes it feel like a mini spa treatment. I love that it contains castor and jojoba oil — it really nourishes the ends and adds a natural shine without weighing the hair down. I’ve tried it both as a leave-in and pre-shampoo treatment, and it works great either way. Also, a little goes a long way, so one bottle lasts quite a while. For the price, this is an excellent hair repair oil, especially for those dealing with dryness, split ends, or thinning hair. Highly recommend! ✅ Great for dry and damaged hair ✅ Refreshing scent ✅ Lightweight and non-sticky ✅ Works well for both men and women
