4.0 out of 5 stars just what I was looking for, July 26, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hair Structure and Chemistry Simplified (Paperback)
I've been doing hair professionally for 7 years, and got this book to better understand all of the chemistry involved. And that's exactly what I got from this book. A nice review of all the stuff I learned in beauty school plus some more in depth information. Goes over what the hair is made of and what chemical changes take place in the hair to make services like coloring and perming possible. Tells you what chemicals make up each product and how they work with the hair. Also lists a lot of common ingredients used in hair products like shampoos and conditioners and what each one is used for. I feel more confident in my understanding of each chemical used for my job.

This review is from: Hair Structure and Chemistry Simplified (Paperback)
Very good book! Very basic concepts and very easy to understand. Pictures are a little dated, but otherwise a handy resource for anyone who is interested in hair and hair care.
