Author Description

Hairstylists hear a lot; some listen. Some opine; a few even help. Gus is the one that gives better tips than he gets. He holds back nothing, from professional techniques to try at home to his philosophy on personal style, attitude, outer and inner beauty, and making the best of your 'self.' He answers some of the most sensitive, heart-rending, rude, and dumb questions women (and men) can, and have, asked. And he illustrates them with drawings that will open your eyes and mind, make you smile or choke, laugh and cry. For example, does Ellen have the perfect pixie? Why is my hair falling out? How do I get rid of my wrinkles? Shave or wax? What about my hair during cancer therapy? Do blondes have more fun? What does "The Donald" see in the mirror? (Gus shows you!!) Yes, this hairdresser knows for sure. Well, he's fairly certain. About most things. About the most important things.-Rick Ford-
