Rating: Summary: Horst Review: Horst Rechelbacher is a truley magnificent author. Since I started my Cosmetology career, he has been my mentor, and I would truley reccomend this particular book. Horst has made the most positive influence in my life, and hopefully yours also. He is a very special person to me.
Rating: Summary: Horst: Beyond Beauty & New Age Psychobable Review: Horst Rechelbacher was my hairdresser in 1968. In 2001; he has touched the lives of many, not just w/his excellent product line -- but because he is charisma. He is a complex person, so it's best for the reader to focus on the philosophy he expounds in this book rather than try to write his bio -- which many of his devotees would love to do.I just pray he stays in that rainforest & continues to mine it's treasures in the tradition of Schultes. Read this book as an introduction to one of the finest minds of our lifetime. In the words of psychologist Abraham Maslow, who studied high achievers; Horst is a "self actualized" man. There is not a thing to loose by following his advice here; except old, non productive ways of doing things.

Rating: Summary: Simply exceptional! Review: Mr. Rechelbacher's book features ideas to help beautify your life from the inside, out. Both his writing style and the book layout is easy to read. He is very good about "suggesting" changes in your lifestyle, and with each change he suggests, he talks in detail about how such a change could benefit your life, health, and/or appearance. He uses his own rituals as a starting point, but encourages the reader to develop their own personal rituals. He does not shamelessly plug his own products (as some authors are wont to do). He even admits to not following his own advice occasionally! I especially liked his chapters on self-massage (something I'd never even considered), nutrition, and refreshing yourself mid-day. Most importantly, I believe, is the fact that his suggestions can be incorporated into a busy lifestyle. If your schedule allows you to devote *any* time to yourself, I highly suggest reading this book and following his advice. (Don't worry, he'll tell you where you can skimp when you just don't have the time.) If you're interested in beginning a healthier life, this book is a great place to start. I enjoyed it immensely more than I expected, and I had pretty high expectations for the founder of Aveda!
