None of the previous books on hair link hair with Ancient Greek and Roman civilizations, like this book does".[9] Pioneer discussed that book was relevant for anyone who has interest in healthy hair but at the same time, it could have benefitted from simplifying medical terms for lay people.[10] Concurrently Victor Dasgupta at India.com wrote "It’s a well-researched blend of medical advice and practical tips, making it a worthwhile read."[11] Himanshu Jha at Hindustan newspaper remarked that despite its shortcomings, the insights and intellectual depth is the strength of the book.[12]
