Summary: Not worth the [money] spent!!!
Review: I like to check out the reviews on books before I buy since there is no way to actually thumb through the book and see for yourself if it is what you want. Most of the time this has done fine for me and I have enjoyed what I purchased. Not this time. For the life of me I can't figure out why anyone would give this book any more than 1-2 stars...5 stars is just absurd!!! Looking through the pages of this book all I could think of was, "you've got to be kidding me!" So there goes another [amount of money]out the window. I guess if you know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about hairbraiding and you can't find a friend to show you the BASICS then you might find something here. I mean they "teach" you how to create a PONYTAIL...is there anyone on the planet that doesn't know how to do a ponytail? Honestly? I was looking for a book that would offer some variety. I have two small daughters one starting school next year and I wanted to be able to do somthing with their hair other than a pony tail, pig tails, or a basic french braid. So, I bought this book on Braids...what a mistake. I will go to the book store next time so that I can look through the pages! I wanted to give this book 1 star, but I changed my mind due to the fact that there are a couple pages on how to make scrunchies and barretts and the end of the book. So one star for basic french braiding for someone who is an absolute beginner and one star for the barretts section. Again, this was not something I was interested in, and also something I think most people can figure out fairly easily on their own, but none the less I decided to give this book 2 stars...which is being VERY, VERY generous on my part! If you are looking for a book to give you some ideas on styling hair I highly suggest you look elsewhere. Happy book hunting - I hope this helps someone out there.

Summary: Great Quick Ideas for School Hair Styles
Review: Lots of easy ideas for quickly getting your kids' hair ready (from K-12 and beyond!). And some projects for them to craft, too. My daughter likes the clear pictures, which means she can quickly flip through it and say, "I want my hair like this today." None of the styles take more than a few minutes to do, but they look nice. These are not very complex (no 4-strand braiding, here), but hold up well through the day.
