About this title

Synopsis

"Beauty Parlor Wisdom" captures one-liner lightning in a bottle - this time collecting smart, funny, and often oh-so-true quotes from our life counselors, our closest confidants...yes, our hairdressers. "Taxi Driver Wisdom" sold over 8000 copies in the UK. It is presented in a cute gift format with a puffy red cover - great price at GBP 8.99. This is the perfect gift pick-up. Not everyone goes to a therapist. But everyone, everywhere, goes to a hairdresser. From the team that brought you, "Taxi Driver Wisdom" comes this hilarious gem packed with Things You Need to Know. One hairdresser puts it best: "I'm not about the truth. I'm about making you feel good about yourself." More than 100 quotes like this, each paired with evocative color photographs, and a puffy, red cover give this book style and substance. "Beauty Parlor Wisdom" is a perfect gift for those looking to feel good about themselves. It features: On lovers, and lipstick: If you don't know immediately, it takes forever to find the right one; On unmasked desire: What's more endearing than vulgarity? On keeping business: Never try to come between a woman and her ideal haircut; On rage: Your boyfriend's driving always drives you crazy; On Darwinism: Sometimes being totally useless works for you; On being decisive: If you don't have an opinion, you wind up with something you don't want; and On family planning: We were all accidents. Now they're all on purpose.
