HA|RDRESS|NG
FASHIONS THIS
FALL SIMPLER
Marked Change Evident in
coiffur Styles Of My-Lady
of Paris and Berlin.

BERLIN, Sept. 2s.-The hair.
dresser has always been a far more
important parsonage, and his skill.
full art more highly rated, in Ger
many and France than anywhere
else in the world.
In Berlin. for instance. a simple
German ''hausfrau" In moderate chr
cumstances drags herself from her
weary couch early in the morning In
order to pay a pre.breakfast call on
her "friseur." so that her hair may
be properly waved and dressed before
she meets her lord and master.
Others, in more affluent circum-
stances, have standing orders with
the hairdresser for a daily visit, in
order to perform his sacred duties.
There has always been more mar
ceiling and curling and undulating in
these two European countries than
in other parts of the fashionable
world. and consequently the coiffure
Of my lady OF Paris or Berlin has had
tendency to be more formal and
stiff.
However, a marked change has
taken place. The new faSnlons IN
hairdressing are vastly simpler and
more natural.
For the past year and a half the
mode of dressing the hair in Berlin
has emphasized and followed the
lines Of the natural shape Of the
head, by being slightly waved, drawn
simply back from the forehead.
pulled in waves over the ears and
visited in q loose knot at the nape OF
the neck.
This style promises to continue for
che coming season with a few varia-
tions. most prominent OF which
would seem to be the new coil. which
is TO be worn above the knot and ex'
tend virtually to the temples on
either side of the head in semi -Geisha
fashion.
This new coiffure Is to be worn
both on the street and for formal
occasions. Another innovation.
which will undoubtedly lend a CO.
uuettish touch even to the primest,
is the small curls which will be worn
above and covering the ears.
The large ornate comb Is still very
much In favor. particularly for more
formal occasions. and for evening
wear the narrow bands are again
shown.
