New Ebook from Dean Gemmell -- Brush Like a Badass

I released an ebook on Amazon today. It's called Brush Like a Badass because, well, what curler doesn't want to do that? Ok, some don't. But for those who do, check out the book. It's my thoughts and ideas on brushing and being a solid front-end player. Why me? Well, since I'm not blessed with natural talent, I do a lot of studying of the best players. I've tried to distill all that thinking into this book.

It's on Kindle now for $3.99 remember that you can always download a Kindle app on your iPad or other device so an actual Kindle isn't required and should be in other formats soon. http://amzn.to/1P4v0GD

Thanks, RBI. Hope you it helps you find your inner Badassedness. Doubtful that's even close to a real word.

Good read, very good value, I also enjoyed your writing style. I would have liked to seen more exercises/training techniques would definitely be worth more if that was included but I realize that some of that was probably included in the "fit to curl" book. Overall very good.

Speaking of Fit to Curl... are you guys ever planning to put out another edition?

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I know I've been saying this for ages but an e-book version of Fit to Curl is very close to happening. John and I put plans for a second edition on hold for a while because we both have other commitments but maybe one day in the future we'll have Edition #2.

Brush Like a Badass is not the same scope as Fit to Curl but it's also a lot less expensive. The goal was to produce specific, easy-to-read information on the often overlooked skill of brushing.

Thanks again! Keep reading!
