Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash 1t
with.
Most soaps ard prepared shampoos con.
tain too much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle and is very harmful.
Mulsided cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and entirely greaseless). is much bet
ter than anything else you can use for
shampooing. as this can't possibly injure
the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub 1t in. One or two teaspoonfuls Of
Mulsided will make an abundance Of rich,
| creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and
scalp thoroughly, The lather rinses out
easily. and removes every particle Of dust,
dirt, dandrun and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly. and It leaves 1t
nne and silky. bright. fluffy and easy to
| manage.
