JOHN BARR, LADIES' and GENTLE-
MEN'S IMPROVED PERRUQUIER, ROMAN
TOUPEE-MAKER, and HAIR-CUTTER, 154, Cheap-
side, six doors from the New Post-office, opposite St.
Paul's. In calling public attention to his improved Peruke,
J. Barr begs leave to state the superiority of his system to
that of his contemporaries. The great dislike to Perukes
in general arises from " the altered air" they give to the
countenance, occasioned by makers paying no regard to the
manner of the natural hair growing on the forehead,
which, being different in every individual, requires a cor-
responding difference in the Peruke. By Barr's system,
the Peruke is made to describe exactly the same angle on
the forehead as the natural hair; and being completely
carried off from the temples, defies the closest scrutiny of
the most proficient connoisseur to distinguish it from a
perfect head of hair. J. Barr begs leave to inform the
Ladies that he has discovered a process by which the laud
unseemly appearance of the parting of the hair is obviated.
In his improved head-dress, the hair being drawn singly
through silk, the parting is accomplished with an accu-
racy and precision hitherto unexampled ; exhibiting, in
the interval between, the most perfect imitation of the akin
ever yet discovered.
J. B. particularly recommends his Poudre Heterogene,
for Dyeing the Hair a permanent Brown or Jet Black.._
Also, his Herbaceous Wash, for strengthening the Hair.
J. B.'s Beer's Grease is genuine.—Particularly recom-
mends hie Leukanastic Tooth Powder.]
