Cindy Whitehead Review
I have been a fashion stylist for many years and came across your book, The Hair, Makeup, and Fashion Styling Career Guide . After being in the business as long as I have and working with major advertising clients almost daily, one would think that we should "know it all". I look at The Career Guide as a refresher course that all of us in the business need once in a while. I feel that I now have renewed enthusiasm for my work.

Sincerely, Cindy Whitehead, Fashion Stylist


Laura Mohberg Review
I was on my way to a job interview and I happened to drop in the Makeup Shop in NYC. I was amazed to find a book regarding makeup and how to break into the business. I found this to be an incredible resource for a person not only starting out, but a person who is showing their portfolio. I am telling all my friends about your wonderful book.

Sincerely, Laura Mohberg, Makeup Artist
