Hint for Mashina Hair.

To avoid tangling the hair when
washing il, first separate it into two
parts by running the comb from the
forehead straight down the back Of
the head. Then divide each of these
parts into two and make four small
braids instead of one large one. When
the washing is done, if each braid is
taken out and combed by itself there
will be few, If any, tangles. This is an
especially good idea in washing a
child's hair.
