Braids and Updos Review September 22, 2007
Tracey Thagard George (Birmingham, AL USA)
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I didn't realize when I purchased this book it was written for a hairdresser. I was looking for ways to fix my hair myself. Most of these I can not do by myself. Also thought it was a little expensive. But if I were a beautician I would probally think it was the greatest thing ever.
 Overpriced May 31, 2007

I think that this book is way overpriced for what it is. I returned it. It was more braids than updos and barely any colored pictures.
Too basic too expensive January 21, 2007

I received the book, flipped through it and put it back in the box. Wasn't anything I haven't seen before in a much less expensive package.
Didn't have anything I wanted. Updos? Two, maybe and one a big bow. Want some advise?
Give this one a pass.
 Very Basic Styles - Not Enough Formal Styles March 21, 2003

I expected more formal braid and updo styles, especially for the price.

I bought this book because I was looking for some hairstyles beyond those found in basic books on braids and updos.There are some styles in this book in addition to the standard ropes, twists and French braids. They involve twisting your hair into zig-zags, looping, weaving a ribbon into your hair, or tying your hair into a big bow on the back of your head. These styles are ugly! Just plain atrocious-looking! Trashy and/or bizarre. Salon Ovations should be able to do better than that. If you don't already own a copy, there is no more helpful or beautifully illustrated book for updos and braids than "Hair: A Book of Braiding and Styles"" by Anne Akers Johnson. There are far more styles represented than in the Salon Ovations book, and they are better illustrated...for half the price. If you are looking for some good styles in addition to those in "Hair", you won't find them in this book.
