One of America's top hair stylists reveals the tricks of the trade in this gorgeous, user-friendly, and celebrity-filled beauty book, from the designer of the bestselling "Making Faces". 150 color... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book covers all the basic information on everything about hair: color, texture, brushes, tools, styling, cleansing and conditioning. One of my favorite parts is when the author addresses hair texture and styling, so you can get control over your hair no matter how curly or straight. The only reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is because a few of the styles are outdated, but overall valuable to an amateur at hair.
Love this book!

This is a great book. It is like an owners manual for your hair. It tells you everything about; brushes, combs, tools, hairtype, and the how to for all the styles and cuts. I didn't see anything offending, all I saw was a well written book.
A great book

You can't see anything but the heads and sometimes bare shoulders of the girls. There was one small picture of a playboy cover, but that girl was completed covered too. I don't see how that's offensive at all. About the hairstyles, they were mostly practical and sofisticated, just what I was looking for! I have Charles Worthington's complete book of hairstyling and found that most of those hairstyles were wild and no normal person would ever wear their hair that way. That is not the case of this book. I highly recommend it. I would only wish for even more pictures of styles!
This is the best book!

This is the best hair book in the world! I live by it. In this book the author tells you how all of the tools he describes in the book work and how to use them. After you aquire the knowledge of all hairstyling tools and products (and much more, like hair types), he takes many individuals (men and women) with different hair types, colors, and lengths. He then gives step by step instructions to the exact cut he gave each one, the color he died their hair and most importantly he lists about 8-10 easy steps to how he styled each person's hair. The best part is that there are a few people from each hair type, but he uses different techniques on each one (so if one aproach doesn't work for you, you can try another one!)
I'm FAAAABULOUS as a Supermodel! Thankyou Kevin!

TONS of great tips in this book--Kevin Mancuso is a genius! He explains all that crap your stylist does while you're not paying attention. My hair has never looked more beauteous! And I even forgive him for have Cindy Crawford ''write'' the foreword...
