Many people are under the impres.
sion that vigorous brushing Of a hun.
dred strokes at night and in the morn
ing will have the effect of making the
hair grow. This is a mistake. The
brush should only be applied with n
very. gentle, almost caressing, motion.
Its only use is to impart gloss and
make the hair smooth.
To properly brush the hair care
should be taken to part 1t at the middle
and gently brush downward on each
side from parting to points, with long,
even strokes.
Frequent massaging Of the scalp
will be found beneficial, and will do
much toward promoting the growth Of
the hair.
