Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Recommended for beginners
Review: 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.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Excellent Chioce!

Summary: Very thorough
Review: 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 The print is in black and white and the pictures of the models are outdated.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!

Summary: Very thorough
Review: This book has a great do-it-yourself spirit. I enjoyed reading it, however, the information is most relavent if you are going to cut men's and children's hair. The book was written in the mid-80's and the women's styles are out-dated (men's styles are about the same) and the amount of material devoted to them is less than for men. Also, for some reason, the author chose female models who had very curly hair so the directions were difficult to see on them. As I bought the book to learn to cut hair on women, the book didn't meet my needs and so I rated it a 3.

The author is very passionate about his subject and I appreciate his spirit. I wish in his next revision he would add more information about cutting women's hair and improve the pictures.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Top Notch Place to Start for Novice Barbers
Review: 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 The photos and hair styles are outdated, but the principles are sound.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.
