Hairdos

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
An amusing and provocative book that takes a look at the whys and wherefores of this immediately identifiable element of personal style. Our hair is no less an indication of who we want to be. Whether a beehive or a buzz-cut, Mohawk or French twist, dreadlocks or Dutch boy, a hairdo-good or bad-can always get a conversation started. Generations of fathers have battled with their sons over hair length, while their mothers, daughters, and sisters struggled with curlers, dryers, irons, perm rods, dyes, and other tools of beauty. Hairdos pairs archival photographs with engaging literary excerpts and quotations, tracing the fascinating history of this universal fundamental of fashion.

From the Publisher
Clothes might say something about who you'd like to be but your hairdo is part of you - truly your crowning glory! For bad hair days to gloriously elaborate tresses and from sleek, gleaming pates to fearsome facial fungus, this is a celebration of the hairdo as an extension of personality. Whether it is a political statement or an attempt to seduce, hairdo is the ultimate expression of self.
