Review: A stunning book convering the 1920’s to 1980’s. “How to” guides and gorgeous photos. - What a beautiful book. If you are passionate or curious about timeless hair, beauty and style through time don’t miss this. This is a thick, gorgeous hardback book. The type you’d want to have out on display. It starts with a brief written and pictorial history about the early years, including some Victorian era facts. It’s then broken into chapters starting in the 1920’s all the way through to a chapter titled the 1980’s and beyond. Each section has lots of gorgeous full page, full colour photographs featuring relevant hair styles and makeup of that era. It gives you written instructions on recreating each style, including what you’ll need to have to hand eg: Bobby pins, hairspray. This is accompanied with drawings of step by step instructions. In my photographs for this review you can see page examples of the finished look with instructions with it. There are some brief details about makeup, like the colours of the era but if you want to really focus on vintage makeup others books are out there. Whether a gift for your Grandma so you can talk about what styles she had, a present for your sister who is vintage obsessed or for you, keen to try timeless looks this is worth every penny. Definitely not a book to hideaway, now then....time to order some bobby pins, hair curlers and hairspray and start practicing! I sense lots of fun coming up. Highly recommended and so much nicer that I had expected.
Review: So beautiful and gives a great history to period hair and ... - Such a stunning book! So beautiful and gives a great history to period hair and make up. The step by step illustrations are fantastic to help create the looks for those needing to refresh their technique. The HD photos are great for showing the detail of the different styles too. Brilliant for both professionals in the industry and those who like to do period hair and make up for their own styling/vintage fairs/parties etc. It'll take pride of place in my reference books. Great present! I've bought 9 copies so far as gifts for friends in the film industry, it's such a winner for Hair/Make Up professionals.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must have guide for anyone creating period makeup + hair looks.
*by T***D on 19 October 2017*

This is a comprehensive guide to Makeup and Hair looks from the last Century, as explained by Louise who is not only very talented but passionate about preserving the history of makeup artistry. I was most impressed by the research and accuracy of all the historical information. The directions are clear and concise, so there is something to learn for amateurs and professionals alike. The hairstyles are exquisite but broken down into steps and diagrams that are easy to understand. It is a great gift for any young artist or anyone who loves the glamorous looks of the last century.
