Product Description With first dates, sweet sixteens, and proms awaiting her—not to mention looking great for that cute kid in class—every teenage girl needs a few cool hairstyles at her fingertips. Fortunately, there's no need to go to an expensive salon, thanks to this fully illustrated step-by-step guide. It features 34 fabulous styles that are amazingly simple to recreate at home—and that will make any teen, tween, or even younger girl the envy of her friends! A list of essential supplies and helpful hints make everything as easy as possible. From Booklist Whether prom is coming up, or a wedding, or a fancy party—or even if you’re just sick of ponytail days—this how-to guide from Mayost, a styling pro, offers 34 ways to reinvent tired tresses. But before you get started, you’ll need a few basic items, listed at the front of the book: hair spray, a blow-dryer, bobby pins (“the last thing you want to do is run out of bobby pins”), and so on. On the menu are styles with fun names like Fantastically Flirty, which involves a bow; Cinnamon Bun Sweetie; and Knotty & Nice. Each is accompanied by numbered step-by-step instructions that correspond to numbered full-color photos, plus a snapshot of the finished look. These are not simple styles, so prepare for some trial and error; each has 14 to 15 steps, and all will require an extra set of hands. The models featured throughout range in age from preteen (ribbon styles) to older teens (more sophisticated), so there’s something for everyone. Some pretty hip dos for the nimbly fingered.
