the bob fad" can be sharply
traced, not OILY in the sype of the
boo, but also in manner Of dress
ing. For a long time after bob
bing first began the hair was per-
mitted to run wild" In recent
months the wearing of nets has
gained wide popularity because OF
the freedom and wide choice OF bob
styles it makes possible. Except
among the poorer classes, nets are
now worn as much with bobbed as
with long Lair. Gainsboroughs are
used. because. being large and true.
shaped, they permit room for all
bobs. the fluffy Ina Claire, the King
Tut, the Cluster-curl Shingle or the
straight bob. All these need space,
and stylists say small hair net
fiattens the hair into ugly clumps.
Demand for nets. said an Of
fcer of the Western Company,
worlds largest manufacturers OF
hair nets. has been especially
brisk in recent weeks. A dete'
mination to reduce the estimated
cost of $3.50 Jear is obviously the
cause"
Imperial Valley press., 1924-05-22

"li's not the initial cost. but the
upkeep!"
That's the wall of the bob-haired
lady. And beauty experts are plac-
ing the upkeep on the average head
of bobbed hair at $3.50 year. This
includes marcelling, curling. trim
ming and shampooing. Babylon
ians and Egyptians never dreamed
of spending so much on their cul-
tivated rows of elaborate curls. Nor
did the Greeks and Romans on their
ciose-cropped polls and fragrant
oils.
In Paris this high upkeep cost
has been cut in half by the simple
process of wearing a hair net over
the bob at night. 1t saves the
curl and reduces hair-dressing bills.
The custom is rapidly taking hold
in America. Gainsborough nets, al
ways Of large construction. are re-
placing the old-time night cap, say
experts. The small. tight net is m
effective.
