"To many, hair is a reflection of personal style. It is also a signifier of class, gender, ethnicity, and even power. In this resourceful A-to-Z, Sherrow explores the impact of hair styles and their implications in various cultures throughout history. The essay-length entries, accompanied by black-and-white photos as well as a full-color photo insert, cover everything from celebrity hair (e.g., the Rachel) and the hair care business (e.g., Vidal Sassoon) to disorders (e.g., dandruff) and organizations (e.g., Locks of Love)." - Library Journal, "Encyclopedia of Hair is an insightful and thorough academic book looking at the subject throughout time....It helps to know about the history of your hair to justify paying $18 for a tiny tube of serum, but hair history won't squirt back at you."- MetroLA, 'Encyclopedia of Hair is an insightful and thorough academic book looking at the subject throughout time....It helps to know about the history of your hair to justify paying $18 for a tiny tube of serum, but hair history won't squirt back at you.'-MetroLA, "This work by Sherrow wins the "browsability" award, for both its topic and its eye-catching cover.

Dozens of color and black-and-white photographs illustrate numerous fashions, but fortunately no mullets.
