London: William Heinemann Ltd, 1984. Previous Owner Markings/Ex-Library; Title Page Pulled From Removal of Pocket, Sticker; Light Creasing on Front, Rear Covers; Front, Rear Covers, Spine Lightly Chipped; Edges Lightly Soiled. SYNOPSIS: This is a completely revised, and thoroughly updated treatment of a very well-established text, first published in 1964 and reprinted four times since, An Introduction to Science and Hygiene for Hairdressers. The emphasis is on the applications of science in a hairdressing context so that professional hairdressers, apprentices and students will find the content directly relevant for their needs. The book has been rewritten in accordance with the revised syllabus of the City and Guilds and other major examinations so that the approach adopted is now the popular 'craft' approach. It covers, in four parts, the salon and services; hairdressing processes; anatomy, physiology and hygiene; diseases, first aid and safety. The book is profusely illustrated by over 200 new drawings and there are multiple-choice questions at the ends of chapters. Complete Hairdressing Science has been especially written as a 'complete science' text for students following the City and Guilds of London Institute Hairdressing Certificate - both the Basic Craft Course and the Advanced Craft Course. It should be required reading for students taking the Welsh Joint Education Committee syllabus in Hairdressing and is directly relevant for students taking the Certificate in Health and Hygiene for Hairdressers monitored by The Royal Society of Health. Those taking courses in hairdressing science in preparation for the examinations of The Certificate in Hairdressing Hygiene of the Royal Institute of Public Health and Hygiene and the Qualifying Examination of the Hairdressing Council will also find the book useful. O. F. G. Kilgour has had many years' experience in the teaching of applied science. He was formerly an Examiner in Hairdressing Science for the City and Guilds of London Institute, Chief Examiner for the Welsh Board, Head of the Science Department at Portadown Technical College and at Colwyn Bay Technical College for over twenty years. Fred Kilgour is the author of numerous other books for the Heinemann Group: Multiple-Choice Questions in Hairdressing and Beauty Therapy Science; An Introduction to Science for Catering and Homecraft Students; An Introduction to the Physical Aspects of Nursing Science; An Introduction to the Chemical Aspects of Nursing Science; Shopping Science; Experimental Science for Catering and Homecraft Students; Multiple-Choice Questions in Biology and Human Biology; Multiple-Choice Questions in the House and its Services; An Introduction to the Biological Aspects of Nursing Science; Multiple-Choice Questions in Food and Nutrition; At Home with Science; and Mastering Biology (Macmillan Press). Marguerite McGarry is a graduate of Liverpool University and a qualified teacher. Her varied experience includes teaching at the Marist College and the Industrial School of Reckitt and Colman in Hull and being in charge of the Science Department at a former Girls' Grammar School in Manchester. For many years, until her recent retirement, she was a lecturer and course tutor at the Hull College of Further Education where she taught Anatomy, Physiology and Communal Health and Hygiene to Hairdressing students, Pre-Nursing students and other groups..

We realize that the packaging and shipping of your purchase is an important aspect of your order. You have spent time carefully selecting which copy of a book to purchase (Thank you for choosing ours!), often based on its described condition. Bearing this in mind, we carefully package your purchase using:
cardboard boxes or cardboard shipping wraps
cardboard wrap in a Poly Mailer
bubble wrap
foam wrap
air bags
paper fill
While we often re-use shipping materials, we only do so with clean materials that are worthy of the job. We believe in the second "R" in "Reduce, Re-use, Recycle" when it comes to shipping, but only if it does not compromise your purchase.
Choosing the most appropriate materials suited to your purchase, we package up your parcel, taking the time to do everything we can to ensure its safe and secure delivery to you. Attention is paid to protecting corners and boards of hardcover books and ensuring that paperback books cannot be curled or folded while in transit. To ensure that no moisture damage occurs while in transit, we make sure that a plastic, protective barrier is a part of your package, either by using a Poly Mailer or by plastic bagging/wrapping your book(s) if a cardboard box is to be used for shipping. No loose edges or flaps are left on the outside of packages to ensure smooth flow and safe journey through postal system sorting and scanning equipment. An Invoice and Packing Slip are always safely enclosed with your book(s), so that should an unfortunate incident occur to exterior labelling and/or packaging, postal employees can identify the rightful owner of the contents and complete delivery. We try to think of everything!
We then choose one of the various shipping services offered by Canada Post to meet your chosen shipping timeframe. While not all services include a Tracking Number, if the one that we choose to use does, we enter this number into the Order Details and/or email our customers this information, so that its delivery progress can be monitored, if customers choose to do so. Packages that are shipped including a Tracking Number also include Insurance. If we choose to ship a package using a service that does not include a Tracking Number and Insurance, it is only when it is not economically feasible to do otherwise.
If you have any special requests regarding packaging and shipping, please just let us know. We want to work with you to ensure complete purchase satisfaction.

Sobre Fully Booked
For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location.
We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born.
In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business.
For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other.
But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here.
We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.Fully Booked sells on Biblio.com, as well as on other online venues: abebooks.com (as Past Pages), alibris.com (under Lisa Van Munster), amazon.ca (as resurrectedreads), Etsy.com (as OutOfOurHands), and from time to time on ebay.ca (as littleredreadinghood or thebigbadbookseller).
