IS LEGENDARY. ALL FOUR

GIANT BOOKS IN THE GREAT HAIRSTYLISTS SERIES PUBLISHED IN JAPAN IN 1984. LONDON, PARIS, MILAN AND ROME, NEW YORK AND LOS ANGELES. TOGETHER, ONE

OF THE MOST AMAZING, COMPLETELY UNSEEN

PHOTO-DOCUMENTARIES

EVER EVER!!

1. These four harback books are huge! 17 inches tall each one of them! 
2. They may look like fairly regular hair photo books on the outside.
3. They are not!!!
 

Inside they are completely bloody amazing!

We promised you Martin Parr. Check this out for an absolutely historic shot of the old credit card swipe apparatus!

That's more Parr than Martin!

Damn that's good!

We promised you smoking in the salon pics. This is just the start of what could easily be a book in itself. There are so many!

Smoking! And smoking hot! Hair-melting heat from those things.

Smoking in the hairwash basin!!!

No cigarettes here. But we need show you more of the world class photography.

World class again. And weirdly similar stylist to the last pic. Despite this being Milan and the last one London. The international style of the red fox moustache!

A man perm? We hope so. New York was so on it in the 80s.

And, finally, evidence of one of the great salon truisms - always choose the stylist with the very worst hair - he will have cut everyone else's! 

These books do of course have huge double pages of hair styles photographed as fashion imagery and in giant how-to step-by-step montage pages. We just thought you would want to see (a small part of) the reportage. It is THE BEST EVER! 

All four books as a set on the blue button below.
