5.0 out of 5 stars Very thorough, August 21, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Scissors and Comb Haircutting: A Cut-by-Cut Guide for Home Haircutters (Paperback)
This book describes step-by-step how to cut men's hair. This book was written by a barber and he does a great job explaining the haircutting process. I would not buy this book if you want to cut women's hair. I cut my husband's hair now and he is forever grateful! The print is in black and white and the pictures of the models are outdated. Otherwise, an excellent how-to book. Note to publisher/auther: Update this book, please!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, October 12, 1999
This review is from: Scissors and Comb Haircutting: A Cut-by-Cut Guide for Home Haircutters (Paperback)
I used another popular book and made a mess out of my kids hair. I was too embarrassed to even take him in and have it fixed. I found this one and I finally understood what I was suppose to be doing! This is the one you want. This is the one you NEED.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch Place to Start for Novice Barbers, April 26, 2002
By 
Eric Mitchell (Lexington, KY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Scissors and Comb Haircutting: A Cut-by-Cut Guide for Home Haircutters (Paperback)
Twice I paid too much for bad haircuts for my two-year-old son and decided I could probably do no worse. I don't have time to go to barber school so I looked for a good book to give me the basics. This is that book. The photos and hair styles are outdated, but the principles are sound. Pictures and illustrations give good step-by-step instruction. I skimmed through the book a couple times, then dove right in and won praises from my wife. The book won't make you a world-class stylist, but it will teach you how to give a respectable haircut so you can keep the [money] it would have cost you in your pocket.
