Description:
Barber's Press, 1970. Softcover. Very Good. Internationally recognized barber and hair stylist Joe Carlow's Styling Longer Hair for Men. Published shortly after the dawn of the men's long hair trend in the mid 1960's, for which the Beatles were significant trendsetters, and pre-dating, the mullet era. Densely illustrated with step-by-step annotated photos and finished portraits. Known as "Mr. Barber," Carlow owned and operated the Playboy Barber Shop of Miami, also a college for aspiring barbers, and throughout a long career trained over 60,000 students. Ironically his few publications suffered from low print runs, and most have become scarce; this title is especially elusive. A rich resource for creating retro styles. Large format: 12" x 9". Tight, unmarked copy with minimal shelf wear. Photographs of or additional information about this item are available on request. All inquiries answered promptly.
