Book Description
No Barber Left Behind (NBLB) was created to fill the void for barbers who want to do more than just cut hair. Cutting hair is what got us started, but there is so much more to the barbering business than just giving a crispy shapeup, a fresh design, or a nice haircut. Either you already have the barbering part down packed or you are on your way, but are you business savvy? Most of us don't have much or any college experience, so NBLB will be a Barbering 101 course, like a Barbering Business for Dummies book, to help us make the most out of this billion-dollar beauty industry. Most things in the beauty industry are stylist or cosmetology influenced, not NBLB. Even though a lot of the business knowledge can be used by stylists, this book is intended to ensure that no barber gets left behind. NBLB was designed to answer the most common questions all new barbers have when it comes to getting started. Like how to advertise, how to build and maintain a healthy clientele, and how to make money from behind the chair. NBLB was also designed for the veteran barber who could use knowledge on business management and incorporating your business. This book can be used as the barbers bible; it will cover all aspects of the barber business, so take notes, pay attention, and enjoy.

Book Description
“The only book you need to understand the world’s most popular beverage. I swear on a stack of these, it’s a thumping good read.”––John Holl, editor of All About Beer Magazine and author of The American Craft Beer Cookbook Imagine sitting in your favorite pub with a friend who happens to be a world-class expert on beer. That’s this book. It covers the history: how we got from gruel-beer to black IPA in 10,000 years. The alchemy: malts, grains, and the miracle of hops. The variety: dozens of styles and hundreds of recommended brews (including suggestions based on your taste preferences), divided into four sections––Ales, Wheat Beers, Lagers, and Tart and Wild Ales––and all described in mouthwatering detail. The curiosity: how to read a Belgian label; the talk of two Budweisers; porter, the first superstyle; and what, exactly, a lager is. The pleasure. Because you don’t merely taste beer, you experience it. Winner of a 2016 IACP Award “Covers a lot of ground, from beer styles and brewing methods to drinking culture past and present. There’s something for beer novices and beer geeks alike.”––Ken Grossman, founder, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. “Erudite, encyclopedic, and enormously entertaining aren’t words you normally associate with beer, but The Beer Bible is no ordinary beer book. As scinitillating, diverse, and refreshing as man’s oldest alcoholic beverage itself.”––Steve Raichlen, author of Project Smoke and How to Grill

Book Description
Examines how hair and hair care take on situated social meanings among African American women in varied linguistic interactions--whether with one another, with African American men, or with European American women. Based on years of fieldwork in a range of sites, from cosmetology schools in South Carolina to hair care seminars in Beverly Hills, from stand up comedy clubs in Los Angeles to online debates about black hair, Jacob-Huey's multifaceted approach documents how and why hair comes to matter so much in African American women's construction of their identities, and how language both mediates and produces these social meanings. --From publisher description.
