I did think that this would be a book about how to draw anime hairstyles, but I do think that having a book on how to do certain anime hairstyles yourself is a really cute idea! Thanks for the ARC!

Any hair stylist would love this book and definitely those who love anima I unifornately am not a big anima fan but I did appreciate that in the back of the book it had a glossary for all the different type of hair styles and tools that are used to make those said hairstyles. I especially loved this because naturally am not very girly girl at all I'm more of a tom boy and usually just wear my hair up in a pony tail but I loved knowing there so many different things you can use to style hair.

This books has such a cute illustrations and the instructions are so easy to follow.

I like the fact that it explains the basics and that the hairstyles are organized by how hard it is to achieve the result you want. The hairstyles are those of anime characters, which is really cute and the final result is a real photo, which is a huge bonus in my opinion, because I'm tired of seeing hairstyles on mannequins with more hair than the average human.

This was SO cute and extremely informative:. I have already tried 5 of the hair looks and loved them! The photos and instructions are clear and cute! I was able to follow with ease and I am not a hair girl.

With super cute illustrations and easy to follow instructions, this book delivers exactly what it promises: Dreamy anime hair.

I had doubts about how informative illustrations could be versus regular photographs but if anything, the illustrations made steps clearer. I was also surprised at how easy and fairly entry level the styles were. Even the more advanced techniques are clearly described and easy to follow along with.

As someone with very long hair, the simple claw clip up-do was getting boring. Some super cute, anime inspired hair styles is just what I needed to spice up my routine!

Highly recommended to any fans of anime looking for new, easy ways to style their hair or cosplayers who work with wigs.

To start it off there is a page that identifies the recommended tools you will need or would want, then how to braid your hair in three different ways. The rest is sectioned into how to do different character hair styles and difficulty The illustrations and step by step directions for each are simple to follow.
It does seem to be targeted for a younger audience based on the instructions of the how to, but still can’t wait to utilize these step-by-step instructions when I go to cosplay some of the characters like Toga.

As a lover of manga and anime, I’ve always been fascinated with the girls’ hairstyles! I have naturally curly hair but lately I’ve been wearing it straight. I’d been wanting to experiment with different hairstyles but didn’t know where to start. I came across this book and fell in love! All of the hairstyles are so cute! I love how the book is divided by skill set and tells you all of the tools you’ll need to recreate every hairstyle. I’ll definitely be purchasing my own copy of this one while I tried a few of the hairstyles, there are so many more I’d like to try my hand at!

Abusuly loved this book, it has some really cute Anime/Manga style hair styles that they show you in Manga style and then with a real person and shows you how you can have this kind of style yourself. This was definitely a cute and insightful read. Also would love to do some of the hair styles for myself.

Great for thoughts who are wanting to learn how to do different types of hair styles as well.

There are so many beautiful images in this book, I am excited to use it to colour and draw my own anime hair.

I misunderstood the concept and thought I was getting step-by-step instructions on how to draw epic anime hairstyles (:

Even though my hair isn't long enough to attempt any of these, I think they would be awesome, even on a wig. Loved how the book is set up by difficulty level and with photos and anime illustrations depicting each step of the process.

And I can even use it for my original drawing purposes, now that I have a better understanding of how those hairstyles even work! Thanks for the ARC :)

This was a super cool read. I've always been interested in figuring out how to style my hair after anime characters because their hairdos are just so much fun. This book does a great job of breaking down the styling into easy-to-follow steps with great accompanying graphics. All of these hairstyles do require longer hair than I have for the most part but I can easily see these instructions transferring well to wigs. I look forward to trying these out when my hair grows some more.

I think this book is very interesting because I’ve never seen a book or it shows you how to do different hairstyles from anime. I think it’s really interesting and it shows that it is an unrealistic sum of the hairstyles that are on amaze bot. I do think that, although this was easy simple to understand and fun, I also believe that it was a little light on descriptions and also I think that the layout was a little bit more case of water, younger audience, and not towards a general audience.

This a cute book for anyone getting into doing daily anime inspired hairstyles from one of my favorite pink haired YouTubers who is also known as princessmei online. The anime-style step by step illustrations by Yoai gives you a great idea on how to create the look, while Mei is shown and photographed as the final look. I think it was fun that Mei did the Spy x Family Yor hairstyle and of course the iconic Sailor Moon hairstyles. I love that she also did some styles based on Paradise Kiss Miwako hairstyle. This would be a great gift for preteens or teens who like anime, jfashion, or cutesy hairstyles. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A really cute and beautifully illustrated guide to anime-inspired hairstyles! Some of these are way beyond my admittedly meager skills, but there are also easier ones that turned out cute. A perfect gift for anime or fashion fans!

This book is SO SO CUTE. I'm growing out a pixie cut so I'm gutted I can't try any of these yet, but there's a ton of magical anime-inspired hairstyles, all of which are sorted by difficulty level and each explained thoroughly with step-by-step instructions. For the visual learners like myself, there's step-by-step illustrations in addition to the real life photographs of each style. Super cute and well done. This will be a hit with any anime fans with hair long enough to try some of these out! Or even for styling cosplay wigs if you're so inclined.

It's actually helpful creating these creative hairstyles. For once it does not only includes the tools to archive the desired look but also shows the process step by step. I've also liked that there is a page where the hairstyles are sanctioned by difficulty level.
