Customer Reviews:
Every hairdresser should have this!
This book is fantastic for hair up designs. In easy to use step by step picture and text instructions you cant go wrong!Lots of different designs, some good some crazy, theres something for every occasion in here. I was particularly impressed with the hair extensions being incorporated into the designs on the shorter hair wearers. Although for some you could use an extra pair of hands!

Not good for anyone with short hair styles
I have given a 2/5 - as i have short bob - length hair... you need long hair to carry out these styles.
Is no use to me - however if i was a rupunzel or someone with hair past shoulder length this would have been rated higher. I bought this hoping to learn some techniques to do my own quiffs, backcombed - Amy Winehouse style puff in hair - like everyone around me seems to be doing - but this book didnt help me at all in my goal :(
Really good styles in here, they look great - just make sure youre a hairdresser or someone with long hair before buying...

Great Hair - Book Review
There are some lovely styles in this book and feel it is too advanced for me. If you are a training hairdresser this might be suitable for you. More than two hands are required for most styles as they are too difficult to do them yourselves.

Difficult to produce with just yourself
Some of the hairstyles in this book are difficult to stomach, but some are quite nice. However, the majority share the same trait, being that they are difficult to accomplish by yourself unless you are used to styling rigorously everyday and have plenty of mirrors. Having an extra person to help seems to add to the confusion, and sometimes the explanations are difficult to implement. It does seem to come across as a well explained book though, plenty of photos of how to create the style, but sometimes, I feel that key moments are not explained well enough. These models must have hair of limp wire, as my own doesn't seem to stand for such nonsense and stubbornly lies Pocahontas straight even with best efforts.

A Bit Sketchy
There's no doubt that the styles in the books are fabulous, really beautiful and elegant. It's a good source of ideas. But, in terms of D.I.Y hair styling, the step by step guides are quite vauge. Some styles start with instructions such as 'blow dry into curls', which is actually very difficult to do with most hair types, and no instruction is given in the introduction on how to achieve this. A basic explanation of commonly used techniques wouldn't have gone amiss. For example, saying 'disguise hairband with hair from ponytail' doesn't tell me how to do that, and the pictures don't help.
I was also hoping for a range of styles which dealt with different hair lengths (most off the models in the book have exceptionally long hair), which makes eighty percent of the styles irrelevant to girls with medium or short hair.
