Another great book from the people at Klutz. This clear instruction manual shows you how to do many simple styles, from the basic ponytail to a french braid, plus how to make some barettes and bows. Added bonus: every thing you need to do the projects in the book comes with it except for hair! (: (Note: I recomend the book "Hair: A Book of Braiding and Styles" for the older crowd, ages 10+
I've tried several times over the years to learn to french braid. I learned to braid my granddaughter's hair in 10 minutes with this book. Lots of clever hairstyles to try besides french-braiding. Great book with easy-to-follow illustrations. Durable high-gloss pages. Well worth the price.
I purchased this guide for myself. It's written for the older child and parents alike. I purchased it because I always envied and admired the "popular" girls in school with the amazing stlyes and marveled at how they got them. Now, I know and I can create those fabulous looks for my own daughters. The instructions are easy to understand and the skills required for bow-making are simple. I made the balloon clip and it was a BIG HIT at school...both kids and teachers commented on the cool clip in my daughter's hair. Most importantly, it was fun for both of us. A definite must-have for Mom's of girls with ANY length of hair!
My dad got this for me when I was like eight and I loved it. It comes with all this stuff to make hair accesories and instructions for simple and complex hairstyles. I would always kidnap my mom's hair to practice the french braid.
This book shows alot of old standbys but it also includes some hairstyles that I had no idea where to even begin. The instructions are very well laid out. Also, the directions they give for making bows are so clear that I can't wait to get started!
As a mom, I found this book very useful. It is great for learning how to do just about any kind of braid. It starts with easier stuff, like the garden-variety braid and pony-tail flips, so it works for someone with zero hair experience. It finishes up with fishtail braids, French braids and French ropes. The instructions are very clear, and the best part is that they show you just how to hold your hands. I never got the hang of French braids, but now I've mastered them.The only reason I give this book 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is slightly outdated in style. The publication date is 1992 and you will spot pictures of girls in floral dresses with white yokes and oversized button-down shirts with turtlenecks. But the hair techniques are still great and easily adaptable to other hairstyles. And most of the hairstyles are timeless, especially for young girls. (I don't know that I would wear a French braid myself.)The bow instructions are also neat. The book shows how to gather ribbon and wire it to barrettes in different styles such as rosettes and the "worm." It also has ideas for more unusual barrettes. We are going to make the balloon barrette for a birthday party craft.Overall, a great buy for girls ages 7-13 or for parents of younger girls.
This book helps you come with ideas to do your girls hair. It also explains hair types and different ways to do the hair. Now I do my daughters hair all the time and she does not even want her mother to touch her hair anymore.
This book is the only reason I know how to braid. I absolutely loved it as a girl, and frequently returned to it as I grew up. It is essential for all girls everywhere. It's also great for parents of daughters who want to brush up on their skills. One of my fondest memories is that of my mom braiding my hair every night before bed. This book will be a blessing to your life if you let it.
