10 be q lovely brown with reddish tints.
How can ! bring back life and color
70 my hair In other ways than brush

In the meantime? D. M. K
Answer.--Hair which has been given
Is many permanent waves as yours
often needs very special care in order
TO prevent the condition which you
say yours Il in at present. Massage
your scalp every day, as nothing stinu-
lates the circulation as much as good
massage with the hngertips.
The massage should be systematic
and vigorous Place the thumbs At the
side Of the head over the ears. Spread
the fingers OF both hands over the
front Of the scalp. Massage by rotating
the parts Of the scalp with the tips or
cushions Of the fingers. DO not rub the
surface Of the scalp, but move the akin
itself. Massage the crown and back Of
the head with the same movement for
several minutes,
Next place the fingers Of the right
hand on top Of the head and with the
ringers OF. the other hand MASSAGE with
o forward, backward movement from
