Careless Use of
Soap Spoils the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, II
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 il.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsihed 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 teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub It
in. 1t makes an abundance OF rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandrutf and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and il leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil a
any pharmacy, its very cheap, and few
ounces will supply every member of the
family for months,
