Product Description
Originally published in 1953, this rare hairstyling book contains detailed instructions and illustrations for creating retro hairstyles with a bit of 1950s beauty / makeup suggestions. This book shows you how to get the look you desire -- from hair cutting through comb-outs. The contents of the book include: dry haircutting, wet haircutting, finger waving, pin placements, sculpture curls, partings, hair setting and comb-outs, high fashion coiffures, makeup and facial contour design. 167 illustrations bring you through all phases of recreating these classy styles mainly geared toward shorter hair that was all the rage in the 1950s. Curling patterns for 33 styles show you how to place your curls to receive the desired effect -- with another 11 "high fashion coiffures" that use a combination of the curling patterns found in the 33 styles. The beauty/makeup section of the book gives brief advice on do's and don'ts for oval, long, square, round, inverted triangle and triangle shaped faces. The author, Comer Syprett, was a hairstylist, consultant, instructor, co-owner of a beauty school and salon, appeared as a guest artist on television and radio shows and was a consultant in hairstyling for motion pictures. Grace Doran, co-author, was also co-owner of the beauty school, award winner, hairstylist educator and member of numerous high profile cosmetology groups. Their combined experience has created this perfectly detailed book, easy-to-use for beginners and professionals alike. You'll learn expert techniques of 1950s hairstyling by those who lived in that era and were leaders in their industry. Sample book pages are shown at the top of this page.
