For a minute, I really thought the first picture below was of actress Courtney Cox sporting a mustache. Yikes!
My thinking is that fashion books for a general public library after 30 years can be retired without too much issue. For special collections, maybe this does have a place. This particular edition was kind of grimy anyway and could be weeded without too much fanfare.

I think that’s George Lam, the Hong Kong singer and actor in that first pic! What a surprise seeing him on here. =p Also, that one pic of Faye Dunaway makes her look seriously p.o.’d! :)~

I read this book! Probably in 1985. I didn’t remember it at all, but I started having flashbacks when I saw Marie Osmond.
That pic is of Suga himself. Here’s the People Magazine article from 1980: http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20077212,00.html. He created the Dorothy Hamill wedge. Genius!
He sadly died young in 1990: http://www.nytimes.com/1990/09/15/obituaries/yusuke-suga-47-dies-manhattan-hair-stylist.html.
The Dorothy Hamill haircut was iconic. Overnight, every woman and girl I knew seemed to chop her hair into that bowl-like shape!
This book would be useful in a history-of-fashion/history-of-pop-culture collection. Or to induce flashbacks in Generation X.
