Captain Color vs. The Pigment Pirates: A Handbook for the Modern Colorist
By: Dennis Gebhart

Like most hairdressers upon their recent Beauty School graduation, Dennis Gebhart believed he learned everything there is to know about the profession. It was only a short time when he discovered he was not as informed as he should be and set out for more education, information, and the pieces he needed to master the craft. Now, forty-plus years after his journey began, he records his findings and lessons in an easy-to-read guide on mastering hair color and being the best stylist you can be. Gebhart challenges the many belief systems and marketing stories that have confused colorists for ages and "rocks the boat" of conventional thinking, confronting misinformation and setting new hair colorists on a better path of understanding, clear thinking, and success in their careers.
