BY LOIS LEEDS.
NEAR MISS LEEDS-I exercise and
dance, but I find that I am
developing a slight double chin How
may overcome this tendency?
NANCY.
Answer-Massage the neck and
throat and learn to hold your head
with chin level, head well poised. Do
not let your chin sag forward. Several
times a day throw your head back
to smooth out the throat lines. My
leafiet "Beautifying the Neck and
Throat" gives some good exercises and
treatments for overcoming this
tendency. Send a Scent stamped,
addressed envelope with your request
for it LOIS LEEDS.
Hair Streaked With Gray.
Dear Miss Leeds-I often read your
advice to others and find it very help
full. I am % years old and have dark
hair, which is becoming streaked with
gray in front and also on one side.
Could you please tell me or suggest
some treatments or hair restorer that
could use? E. M.
Answer-Graying seems rather pre-
mature in your case, so that correct
local care and an improvement in
general health may be able to retard
it. Massage your scalp with finger
tips for several minutes and brush
your hair every night and morning.
There is nothing like good circulation
through the scalp to keep the hair
looking its best. Choose well known
brand Of liquid shampoo soap and
shampoo carefully and rinse thor
oughly. Use the warm oil before the
shampoo, and leave it on the hair and
scalp overnight. There are also sew
eral good scalp tonics that you could
use three times a week when you
massage the scalp. Also you could
use one of the special colored rinses
after the liquid soap shampoo. There
are several good ones on the market.
I cannot mention any special brand,
but they are obtainable from the cos
metic counters. drug stores and hair
dressers. If the colored rinse is mot
strong enough, you might touch up
the white hair with a retouch pencil
sold for this purpose or you could
have a shampoo tint or dye treat
ment at beauty shop.
