Feeds
the Hair

Have you ever thought why
your hair is falling out? It is
because you are starving your
hair. If this starvation con
tinues, your hair will continue
to fall.
There is one good hair food.
1t is Ayers Hair Vigor. It
goes right to the roots of the
hair and gives them just the
food they need. The hair
stops falling, becomes healthy,
and grows thick and long.
Ayers Hair Vigor does
another thing, also: it always
restores color to faded or gray
hair.
