5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book!, 14 April 2001
By A Customer
I cannot praise this book highly enough. It contains styles for 'in-between' and 'growing-out' length hair as well as long hair. Simple diagrams and a fun, relaxed attitude put this book head and shoulders above other 'how to braid' books. The step-by-step description of how to French plait is the best I've seen. Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of styles to choose from, 24 Nov 2006
By Catherine (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
The three scrunchies that came provided with this book are a delightful bonus. I especially like the beaded one.

The book is fairly comprehensive and details more complex styles as well as basic buns and braids and twists. All the styles look beautiful and classical.

However, it is more suitable to those with thick hair as some of these styles will possibly not work with very fine, thin hair except perhaps with an added hairpiece. This then could be a major drawback to those with this type of hair.

If however you are blessed with thick, glorious locks then the styles have no boundaries, it's just a question of practice making perfect.

Some styles are seen around everyday, whilst there are others I've never seen before and will be definite head turners.

If you are stuck with ideas for dressing up your long hair then this is the book for you.

Nicely bound, the instructions look quite easy to follow and all the models are beautiful.
