END OF THE PERMANENT WAVE.

The making ftselr oc- cupies perhaps 15 minutes and then, as I explained last week, the electric spools are removed ana two attend ants begin to cut and crack the now brown and hardened cardboard spools. This doesn't take very long. The hair. tightly rolled around the
 curriers' is soon ready for its second shampoo. You will be quite surpris-
 ed when you see it looking the same
 as ever, for after all you've been
 through you are quite prepared for
 hair of different color or no hair at
 all.
 The strings tying the curriers' to the head are undone ana the hair Is free in lot of queer, snaky corkscrew rinAlets. Then it is shampooed again, and you are certain if your hair is normally straight that all the curl will be washed out of it.
 It isn't, however, 1T the process has been properly performed. At the end of the shampoo it is a mass o4 crisp, | tightly rolled ring1ets.
