Opening Editorial
HAIRCUTTING or HAIRSHAPING is defined as: the art of shaping hair in such a way that it provides a perfect foundation for the hairstyle.
HAIRSTYLING is defined as: the art of designing a hairstyle that enhances the good features, minimizes the bad features, and is suited to personality, age, and the occasion at which it will be worn.
The purpose of this volume is to present the methods and secrets that will enable you to master the art of hairshaping and hairstyling.
The author has divided this volume into four books so that the reader may learn gradually and methodically, and for this reason it is strongly urged that you fully understand each book before proceeding to the next.
"It has been said that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Certainly, a little knowledge on the subject of hairstyling is a very dangerous thing, for proper styling of hair is the greatest single factor in providing an illusion of perfect facial balance and beauty.
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"
