- Description:
- Multi-media ethnographer Candacy Taylor delivers a talk entitled, "Beauty Shop Culture and the Labor of Hairdressing." Taylor describes hair salons functioning as communities where people gather to discuss everything from intimate family sagas to the stock market. Using audio clips of several hairdressers she interviewed, Taylor explains her project, how she gained entry to the private environment of the salons, and how the work of styling is done. She suggests the ritual of going to the salon is as important as going to church. She answers questions from the audience. Taylor is introduced by Michigan State University Professor John P. Beck. Part of the "Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives" Brown Bag series sponsored by the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations, the MSU Museum, and co-sponsored by the MSU Libraries' Colloquia Series, the MSU Center for Gender in Global Context, and the MSU Women's Resource Center. Held at the MSU Main Library.
