Book Reviews

This book really nails it. I got my cosmetology license several years ago and I wish this book was around back before I was in school. Most of us go into beauty college blind. This book opens your eyes. It’s written in a conversational tone and it’s very easy to read. I especially like all the information it provides on different topics, like working in the salon, beauty college, competition, marketing, and the stories about hair fashions and interacting with clients. I have a neighbor in beauty college and I’m going to get this for her. It lays out the career of a hairstylist—but it’s like your best friend is teaching you the industry, not a textbook or product rep. There is no sugar coating here. I definitely recommend this book. It’s a must read!

I got my cosmetology license when I was eighteen. Even though I am no longer a hairdresser, I don’t regret getting my license. I do wish I knew more about the industry back then. This is a great guide to for learning about the history of the industry as well as what to expect. I highly recommend it.

A lot of interesting info in this book. A must read if you are thinking about joining the hair biz! Thanks Beth.

great little book about the naughty politics of the stylist community. Fun read, as well as informative.

Good read if you are contemplating beauty school
