In his more than three decades as a hairstylist, Larry Dunlap, a Raleigh dad, has fielded plenty of questions from parents about their children's hair. So he decided to write a book about it.
Posted — UpdatedIn his more than three decades as a hairstylist, Larry Dunlap, a Raleigh dad, has fielded plenty of questions from parents about their children's hair.
As a mom who has attempted many times to cut her own children's hair with mixed results, I definitely appreciate the detailed instructions and information (if only it existed four years ago when I first started)!
Dunlap and I had a conversation over email. Here's our Q&A. He'll address some common questions in a post tomorrow.
During my career I have been president of the Raleigh Hairdressers Association, a teaching member of the National Cosmetology Association of North Carolina, part of the Graham Webb Southeastern Educational Team, salon owner and a freelance photo stylist doing hair and make-up for professional photographers, ad agencies and theater.
I am married and have a teenage daughter attending Millbrook High School. I currently work as a self employed hairstylist at the Salon at Salem Woods in North Raleigh.
There were also many, many times that a parent would bring in their child after they or their spouse had attempted to give them a hair cut and had botched it badly. It just occurred to me one day that I had a unique set of skills to create a book that could teach someone to cut children's hair.
