Beauty and the Book

Props to Kathy Patrick for doing something most of us dream of: Combining two passions and making a business out of it. Kathy's Texas-based hair salon Beauty and the Book is a full service cut, color and curl up with a good read salon and bookstore. Yes. Bookstore. Kathy, who's also a makeup artist, is part of a "bad-ass beauty" group called the Pulpwood Queens. (Think Pink Ladies + Ya-Ya Sisterhood, with hot-pink tees, not leather jackets.) And in a place dubbed "Home of Texas Big Hair," shelves are lined with, not only books, but tiaras, vintage jewelry, rhinestones and anything else her clan deems "leopardlicious." Author of The Pulpwood Queen's Tiara Wearing, Book-Sharing Guide to Life, Kathy feels that writers, not just starlets, deserve "pink carpet" treatment: "I offer them all our hair care services. We love to treat them royally and bow to the feet of our author Kings and Queens!" If Ms. Patrick proves one thing, it's that a big brain is best with big hair.
