5.0 out of 5 stars I find this book to be the best on the market., January 24, 1999

By A Customer

I find this book to be the best on the market for anyone interested in the art of professional haircolor. I have taught haircolor for the past thirty years and this is the first haircolor book I have found to be dead on correct. I would recommend it for novice haircolorist as well as professionals who have been in the business for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Haircoloring in Plain English, June 19, 2000

I always keep this book at my station to use as a reference when needed. Of the many haircoloring books I have read, this is the only one I would recommend for any and every hairstylist, no matter what their level of experience. It addresses every point of haircoloring theory in a clear, concise manner, and does not refer to any specific line of color, making this book practical for every stylist, no matter what color line they use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed, Fascinating, August 6, 2000

By	alfafemme "alfafemme" (CA United States) - See all my reviews

Excellent presentation of info for the professional hairdresser. Good for any level of expertise. How to of hair color and the WHY behind it. I loved the details...(for example, they explain WHY and HOW chlorine turns hair brittle and green, not just a boring statement of the fact that it does and some ways to reverse that.)

Nice photos, well laid out, a little pricey but LOTS cheaper than a class.
