CARELESS USE OF SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR

X x x !; 4 x 4 x x x x x = x \
Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to Keep your hair looking
its best Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is Just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless) and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoont'uls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy Iather, which rinses out easily
removing every particle of dust, dirt
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy it's very cheap, and a
few ounces will supply every member
of the family for months.
