continues TO do so all winter.
For blonde and brown he'r the best
thing 10 clean it with in hot weather
is cornneaI and oTris root.
Throw a large towel on the bed, hold
your head over the towel and rub the
scalp thoroughly with dry oatmeal
Shake out the meal and repeat the rub
bling process with fresh meal.
Then rub the meal through the long
hair. applying fresh meal until it falls
off clean.
Take fine brush and brush the hair
diligently. removing every particle of
meal
If a little orris root is rubbed on the
brush, it win impart a dainty scent to
the hair. and also aid in cleaning It.
This treatment will strengthen the
