Lucy" show, Marilyn Monroe (even though it was before her time), Katherine Hepburn,
Elizabeth Taylor and more of the classic greats from stage
and screen!

item is a great resource for those who are WWII and 40's era historical
reenactment enthusiasts, theatre hairdressers, students of historical hair
styles, etc!
An
excerpt:
"There long has been a crying need for a textbook dealing with
all phases of haircutting and styling from a master craftsman with an understanding of hairstyling for
face type.
Here, at
last, is a comprehensive textbook, the written material and superb illustrations
for which show the fine points of hairshaping and hairstyling in such a way that
even a non-professional can grasp the ideas.
The
author's thorough understanding of hairstyling problems is the sum and substance
of the ability, the artistic and practical knowledge that have made him one of
the country's outstanding artists in the hairdressing
profession.
this Book
wins my wholehearted approval as a textbook for beauty culture schools, for
practicing hairstylists the world over, and for the average woman who, from its
contents, can guide her beauty steps toward the goal of successful and happy
living."
