Here is one of those new cultures that dispose of the ends of the hair in some mysterious way without coil or braid or twist or any other visible means. except two soft curlS at the nape of the neck. We look at it to admire and to ponder the ingenuity that made so beautiful disposition of hair which is abundant but not long. The secret of dressing the hair in this way appears to be in parting 1t off in the right way.
 The front hair for this coifure is parted off and cOmbed forward as for a pompadour. The remainder of the hair is COmbed tO the back of the neck and tied, and the ends are separated into two strands and curled. The front hair k parted at each side above the temples and waved. Al the top of the head the hair is brought back in a small pompadOur, the ends loosely twisted and pinned to the crown. The side hair is combed down over the ears, spread over the back of the head and the ends turned under at the nape of the neck. It is held in place with invisible wire pins A single strand above the left temple is left free how ever until larger shell comb has been thrust in at the crown.
