" ERE'S joyful news for the wo-
r. men whose hair simply won [
stay In curl during hot
weather.
Not much longer need she spend
hours with hot tongs and other >dia-
bolical inventions whereby wave
which nature never intended is pain
fully introduced into her locks. Not
much longer need she make most
unlovely saarecrow of herself by
night with patent curriers'. Her friend
with naturally curly" hair will not
be an object OF envy.
For soon, very soon, waves, curls
and puffs will be things or the past.
l can almost hear the chorus OF ex-
Carnations from the women who have
been expanding every spare dollar Oh
yards OF sausage-like puffs and little
bobbing curls. But IL Is Just those
women who have FASTENED the down
fall OF the wonderful erections they
have been building upon their long
suffering heads.
When thing becomes, a burlesque,
a butt for wit upon the stage and In
the newspapers, then the woman Of
fashion hastily drops it-and the com
mon nerd follows suit.
This Is exactly what has happened
in the case of exaggerated hair dress
Ing. Like pricked balloons. the size
Of the heads has suddenly diminished.
Just how this present transition stage
of hairdressing will settle itself IS
still q question.
or course the styles and periods Of
dress have much influence upon the
styles of coiffures. The sudden vogue
OF all things Grecian gave us the Gre
clan knot and fillet bound hair, and
no more charming style has come our
way for some time. Particularly is It
becoming TO youthful faces and small,
well-shaped heads.
This style OF hairdressing almost
entirely does away with the monstrous
over-grown pompadour, which has
been an offense TO the eye OF good
taste for so long The hair Is drawn
softly back TO the crown Of the head,
and there a large. soft knot Is formed.
AT the sides. Just over the ears, the
hair is we'll pulled out, sometimes
even small pads are here introduced,
but the long line must be from fore
head TO back OF head, not from ear to
ear
Many hats turned out this year by
fashionable milliners demand this sup.
port for the back brims. But again
the large-crowned hats, which II Is
considered smart Just now to wear
jammed down over the ears, need hair
pulled out both at back and sides to
give even hint OF the wearer's
couture.
The simple parted hair, beloved by
poets and painters, seems likely TO
come into its own again. Unfortunate
ly IL is a style of hair dressing woe
fully unbecomlng to many women. but
TO straight features IL gives a Madon-
na-like look very fascinating. Not
only Is the hair worn parted In the
middle. but II Is also parted on one
side. in a fashion foreshadowed last
winter by one or two members OF
New Yorks 400"
