Salon Madness

The Shady Side of Beauty (An Expose on "The Business of Being Beautiful")

The author, Jan Glaz, uncovers the shady side of the beauty business on all fronts: haircuts, makeup, hairstyling and fashion. Between the covers of this book we’re introduced to the outrageous behavior transpiring behind the scenes during worldwide Cosmetology Conventions, local beauty shows, and high-end beauty salons. Also revealed are the un-average clientele, the ones who disrupt the industry and the not to be forgotten hairdressers, the ones who inhabit strange personalities to the detriment of shop owners, customers and coworkers. Speaking of shop owners, not all are considered sane. The chapters are truths compiled from the author’s personal experience, from journals and interviews. These bizarre episodes hail from the Lake Shore area, the heart of the city of Chicago, IL.
