is used in the shampoo. They then let the
hair dry in the sun.
The egg shampoo Is good, but It Is n,lssy

from moisture, and you will be pretty sure
to have curls
To curl the hair take q. lock. twist II
possible give the tongs the gentle twisting
motion employed by hairdressers
Now hold the tongs tightly, while you

Jet black hair. 30 black that 1t looks
blue, - always much admired. Brunettes
are the owners Of an attraction which the

hair lie never fetching.
