This is a great book to read about the ingredients in your products, what they do, and how to decipher the advertising hype and misinformation (the only place a product has to tell the truth is on the ingredients list). It's information is based on (published, peer reviewed) scientific findings instead of rumor (she often quotes the very studies she got her information from).

Product Description

Are $20 shampoos and conditioners worth it? Can good hair-care products be found at the drugstore, or are the expensive salon products really superior?
