Truvy Jones runs a successful beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies in the neighborhood have a standing Saturday appointment.  Shelby’s engagement is the talk of the town, but the joy and excitement of her wedding quickly turn to concern as the faces a risky pregnancy and a myriad of health complications.  As the women of Chinquapin make their way over life’s many hurdles together, they find comfort (and a fair amount of verbal ribbing) in one another.
