Book Description

February 1, 2011

Selection of the Children’s Book-of-the-Month Club

Styling girls’ hair is easy with advice from the owner of Cozy’s Cuts for Kids. 

Little girls love to have pretty hair, and parents and grandparents can spend hours trying to achieve the best styles for their daughters. This book gives an insider’s look at how to make the task trouble-free and fun for both girls and their caretakers.

An expert on hair care—with a chain of children’s hair salons and a nationwide line of hair products for kids—Cozy Friedman shares her years of training to give each girl the best look to fit her style and personality.  Starting with a hair identification guide, the book recommends the products, methods, and tools for each hair type from curly to straight. Expert advice includes step-by-step instructions for how to cut hair at home and how to fix bad-hair days. Best of all, there are wonderful styles (with clear directions on how to achieve them) for girls’ everyday hair, dress-up dos, and fantasy looks, and even suggested styles for babies, too.

Chock-full of color photographs, the look-book aspect of Cozy’s Complete Guide to Girls’ Hair will appeal to both girls and their parents. Grown-ups can browse through photographs of more than thirty different hairstyles and choose one that works best for their little girl!

About the Author

Sheryl Berk has been a contributing writer to Martha Stewart Weddings, InStyle, and New York Daily News. Books she has collaborated on include Britney Spears' Heart to Heart and Colin Cowie's Legendary Weddings.


Inspired by a friend's tale of a little nephew's tearful visit to a grown-up hair salon, Cozy Friedman had the idea of creating a salon where kids are the priority, not a nuisance. After earning her barber's license, she opened the doors to her first salon on Madison Avenue in New York City, Cozy's Cuts for Kids. Fifteen years later, Cozy--now a mother of two--provides stress-free cuts and styles for New York kids, including the children of many celebrities, in her three salons. Her hair product line, So Cozy Hair Care for Children, is distributed nationwide.

This is not a bad book iteself. It has some basic useful information on how to take care of different hair styles, from cutting to hair accessories.
I was a bit disappointed because I expected to see a lot more hair styles than what the book actually offers.

Not a bad buy, but I find only a couple useful styles I can actually use. Some of them are just basic buns, braids, etc. If you are looking for something a lot more creative, then don't get this book. If you are looking for basic how to's then it's a good way to start.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Resource! August 21, 2011
Format:Hardcover-spiral
Cozy's Complete Guide to Girls' Hair by Cozy Friedman is all about hair. If you need some guidance on cutting hair or styling girls' hair, this is one to definitely check out. It is beautifully illustrated, and fully explains the different techniques so just about everyone can do it.

This is the perfect book for everyone who needs help with their girls' hair. Going to the beauty salon for young girls isn't a fun place to go and can be pricey. Sometimes you don't really need to go for that expensive haircut or quick fix (for instance if gum is caught in the hair). Not everyone knows how to trim bangs, get that gum out, or any of the other variety of things that can happen to hair. This book gives the answers needed and also helps to explain and show how to do many different hairstyles that girls will love to show off to their friends.

This guide is in full color and is beautifully illustrated to show the different types of hair, hairstyles, and all of the other tips about hair. It is written in an easy to read and understand manner, which makes it very nice to actually try the styles shown in the book. Some are really easy and don't require more than five minutes. There are also some that will take quite a bit of skill (especially the special braiding techniques), but they can be mastered if you (and the person whose hair you're working on) has the patience to sit still long enough.

Overall, I found the book to be helpful for those that have children and also for those that don't. The tips and even some of the hairstyles can be used for all many ages on girls of all ages. I highly recommend it.

* Thank you to the publisher of Cozy's Complete Guide to Girls' Hair, Artisan, for providing me with a copy of this book for review.

By UES Mom

My 1st grade daughter and I pour over this book daily - her choice! She selects the hairstyles and I am charged with executing! I was nervous my skills wouldn't be up to par, but the visuals and descriptions make these things a breeze. We love it!

I'm a wash & wear hair gal so managing my daughter's extra curly, long hair has been a challenge. Cozy's book helped me understand her hair better and gave some simple ideas for styling it that can be done in the rush to get out the door in the morning.

This book has been helpful to me as style inspiration and as a solid, authoritative reference for creating specific hairstyles. I like that the author provides specific advice for the different types of hair types, textures, and lengths. As some of the other reviewers have pointed out, the styles aren't super-advanced or complex, so if you're looking for that kind of a guide, this may be a disappointment. Still, many of the styles are creative and sweet, and, if executed in the manner illustrated, would have very fine and high-quality results.

Nothing new for professionals but great for Mom'shair ideas for my little clients that are little girls and preteen. As a hairstylist I was hoping for a book of ideas or be inspired but was not. This book is full of great information and simple ideas one can do at home.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for mom and kids March 30, 2011
Format:Hardcover-spiral|Amazon Verified Purchase
My 8 year old daughter and i both love this book. It gives you lots of cute hairstyles with easy to follow instructions. It has been a great book to look at with my daughter as she starts to make the transition to really be responsible for her own hair and have a real opinion on hair care. Only the other day she did a tricky hair style from the book on her own and was really proud of herself. Kudos to Cozy and her team for coming up with this book
