The True Secret
of Beautiful Hair
(Amy Lester in World Magazine )

A famous French actgess-wcl known
in America recently stated in an inter
view: Nearly every woman knows the
excellent results that follow dry shampoo
ing, but too many depend upon orris root
alone to keep the hair and scalp in good
condition Orris root will not grow hair.
The best dry shampoo know is made
by mixing 4 ounces OF powdered therox
and 4 ounces OF orris root Sprinkle a
little Of this mixture upon the head and
brush it thoroughly through the hair.
The true secret Of a successful div sham
poo is to distribute the orris root and
therox through the hair evenly; use
sitter top can if you have it. Then don't
spare the brush.
:. This treatment keeps the hair light,
fluffy and lustrous, while too much nois-
ture on the hair and the alkali in most
soaps tend to make the hair coarse, dry.
