Fashions in Hair - the First Five Thousand Years by Richard Corson.
THE reference book on the history of hair. This is a rare 2nd edition 1966 version which used to be in the Wellington Polytechy Library (Now Victoria University of Wellington, Architecture and Design Library in New Zealand). Most of the versions available are either new, or at the oldest from the 1980s, making this a true gem. Perfect for collectors, hair professional, or your personal library.
The book is in overall good condition. Its binding is a little loose, and the exterior is showing some markings from age. Some stamps on the interior marking it as a library book.
This book was the 1st of its kind - a comprehensive historical survey of men's and women's hair styles through the ages. It is now an essential work of reference and the handbook for theatrical designers, hair artists, illustrators, and beauty consultants.
