Once again, I loved this book. Probably because I love to do my hair. Other girls that have a passion for hair would feel this way, too. I reccoment try another book if you have short or curly hair because most of these work on strait and long hair. This book's sooooo cool because it has like, every hairstyle you could imagine including the popular-unpopular 'on and off' "Messy Buns" which are two buns on top of your head. They even have a rope braid!! They even have hair ideas that are made-up stuff!! They show you stuff like how to get a hair cut properly and how to curl and part your hair which is helpful if you are just learning how to do your hair. If you are in that case, you should probably get this book to get you started and give you some ideas. If you are an individial, like myself, and none of your friends have this. . .buy it!! If you are one of those people, don't copy other's people's hair and get your own ideas from this book!! It's sooo cool! All the hairstyles even have classical names like 'The Brady Bunch'. It also has quizzes!!! This book is one of American Girl's Best. I would also reccomend that if you are buying this book as a gift, have the person open it last so they can go home once everything's done and do their hair so they don't have to wait as long. Another suggestion and my final one:

If you love hair, then you should ABSOLUTLY buy this great book!!

I'm an adult w/long hair, who's always wanted to find out how these gorgeous hairstyles are done, so I bought this for myself. My older sisters & mom always did my hair, but could not explain how they did it. Now I finally have found a book that explains it.

I've done many of the hairstyles in this book, and have gotten lots of compliments on it.

I'd suggest this book to both kids and adults. Awesome because it actually explains how to do the styles in a way I understand with drawings, etc. AWESOME BOOK!

This is a short book that shows the hair basics such as braids and buns. If you know how to do this already then get a different book. However, if you don't know how then this is helpful. It does not give any tips on using a curling iron, gel, or more advanced styles. I was a little disappointed in this book but it did show me how to do a bun that I did not know how to do.

I am giving this book two stars because it does have nice photographs and clear explanations of how to achieve each style. It is consistent in that regard with the kind of quality you would expect from American Girl products.

However the book provides only the most rudimentary hair styles, even when you consider that this book is geared toward children.

If you are purchasing this book for someone over the age of ten years, I suggest Hair: A Book of Braiding and Styles. This title has a better selection of styles, and comes complete with three hair scrunchies.

I checked this book out from the library before I purchased it. It is a great find! Easy, cute ideas are throughout this book. Myself and my two daughters have long hair and love trying new things with it. This book was full of uncomplicated, easy-to-do styles for school, church, swimming, and every day. I have checked out a lot of hair styling books and I like this one the best!

If you or your child has LONG and THICK hair (down to middle of back), this is probably a good book for them. My girls have super fine, shoulder length to a bit longer hair. They don't have enough hair to do most of the styles in this book.

The instructions are easy to follow. And the styles are cute!

I expected more styles for the money, not about 12 that are just variations of the same thing counting as a new style.

I Like This Book Alot It Help Me Do What I Love To Do Hair ! I Think All Girls Hould Have This Book . The Only Thing I Had A PRoblem With Is I Have really Long Hair And Not All The Hair Styles Work On ME But The Ones That Did Where Great !!!!

I was in need of some new hair styles since school was starting and of course you wanna look good for the first day! I didn't have a book of hair styles that were quick and easy to do. I went to the bookstore desperate for a good book and I saw this one and scimmed through it and it had everything that I ever wanted to know how to make! I instantly bought the book and loved it I did almost every style with ease and looked great on the first day of school! It was such a hit. I would definatly recommend this book for any girl in need of a hair style really soon.

Got this for my daughter who's 9 and never keeps clips in or cares how her hair looks. She loves it!
Being able to see the finished style and the step by step instructions, has her wanting to do her hair. she actually styles her hair herself!!
