Step back in time to an age of Hollywood glamor, summer-lovin’, or punk rock, with this gorgeous collection of vintage hair and make-up styles to re-create at home. The desire for all things vintage has truly made its way back into fashion and, as the demand for classic clothing increases, so do the iconic hair and make-up looks to match. With styles from every decade between the 1920s and 1980s, you can re-create the beautiful looks made famous by the music, movie stars and top trends of the times. At a time of dancing, cocktails, and underground parties, enter the Jazz Age with the style of a confident Society Gal, perfecting smoky eyes and pin curls to match that little black, beaded dress. Or channel the colorful liberation of the Swinging Sixties where big beehives and dramatic lashes go hand in hand with the groovy patterns found in clothing and accessories. As the iconic looks and styles of the last century catwalk their way back into the mainstream, Vintage Beauty Parlor has all the tips you need to become a vintage icon.

Mario Bellatin’s complex dreamscape, offered here in a brand-new translation, presents a timely allegorical portrait of the body and society in decay, victim to inscrutable pandemic. In a large, unnamed city, a strange, highly infectious disease begins to spread, afflicting its victims with an excruciating descent toward death, particularly unsparing in its assault of those on society's margins. Spurned by their loved ones and denied treatment by hospitals, the sick are left to die on the streets until a beauty salon owner, whose previous caretaking experience extended only to the exotic fish tanks scattered among his workstations, opens his doors as a refuge. In the ramshackle Morgue, victim to persecution and violence, he accompanies his male guests as they suffer through the lifeless anticipation of certain death, eventually leaving the wistful narrator in complete, ill-fated isolation.
