From Marilyn, Twiggy & Farrah to Julia Roberts, Princess Di & Linda Evangelista, hair is a subject to be studied, coveted, & copied. In Big Hair,Ó the ultimate book about hair -- hair styles, hair color, hair stories & hair history, from beehives to bobs & beyond -- anthropologist McCracken spins a fun, hip cultural tale detailing how modern women use the power of hair to transform their lives. Hair, often dismissed as superficial girl stuff, is, in fact, loaded with a multitude of cultural signifiers. In the universe of hair, blondness is a resource & an opportunity for self-exploration. But brunettes & redheads won't be disappointed because they are also deconstructed. After reading this book, you won't look at hair the same way again. B&W photos.

In the beginning, there was the hair. And some of the hair was bad, but it was small. As men and women everywhere worked to improve and increase their lot, however, they stumbled onto some of humankind's most miraculous innovations: spray, gel, mousse, crimping irons, and of course, the perm. With these new tools, people everywhere suddenly found themselves able to coax their lank, lifeless tresses toward glorious new heights. The age of big hair had begun. Now, the greatest of these bouffants, afros, rakes, beehives, and Flock-of-Seagulls have been plucked from their spots in hairdressers' windows and given the respect they so clearly demand. Bigger and badder than you ever dreamed possible, Big Hair goes out to all those people of yesteryear who were unafraid to think BIG.
