Guide Review - Don't Go Shopping for Hair Care Products Without Me, 2nd ed.
Paula Begoun draws on over 14 years of experience researching the cosmetic and hair-care industry to give an unbiased view of numerous hair-care products. I like this book because it contains factual information based on science, not on advertising. I’m a big fan of knowledge. I think that we can make better decisions when we have the correct knowledge. This book provides easy to understand, but in-depth, information about every aspect of hair and hair care.
