Book Reviews of Cutting Your Family's Hair
Book Review: A bit repititious
Summary: 2 Stars
If you've never picked up a pair of scissors to try you hand at cutting, hair, this book may provide some very basic (and somewhat useful) guidelines for determining the cutting line and learning a bit about cutting hair at angels and how that affects the look and layering of the cut. Having told you this,however, you hardly need the book. The hair cutting techniques presented are very basic and simply repeated (rather than developed) for long, medium, short, men, women, children, and teen cuts. The same technique (with slight variations)is detailed over and over in each of these categories. Aside from needing some serious editing help, the production of the book is also pretty cheesy and the cuts (except for the short hair for women) are pretty dated (early 90's) and boring (lots of long layers and blunt, straight cuts for thin, fine hair). Ok for a very beginner, otherwise, I couldn't recommend this.
Summary of Cutting Your Family's Hair
No more bad hair days ever again! Give those you love the cut they want--plus remedies to keep those tresses healthy and shining. Close-up photos and detailed instructions teach you how to hold the scissors and comb, the angles at which to snip, and how to establish guides to the correct lengths. Then comes an array of cuts, with and without bangs, shown from start to finish: easy-to-care-for trims for children; blunt-cut, wispy, and layered styles in all lengths for women; and basic short versions for men. As a bonus there are recipes for natural, homemade hair-care products.
