Gray Hair
Is Asset
Carefully Select
Costume COlOrs
And Make.Up.
By ELSIE PIERCE.

A CCORDING to the head Of Fifth
avenue beauty salon, women with
courage should "let your hair grow
gray, If there's enough of it." I pre-
sumo she means two things-enough
hair and enough gray.
During a fashion and beauty show
she removed her hat to show her own
hair, which she has allowed to grow
gray in the last two years (until then
she had the stray gray streaks tiuted.
A more gorgeous, glamorous head of
gray hair I have never seen.
It isn't pure white, but more a
pepper and salt, steely mixture. 1t is
kept scrupulously clean, silky, shiny
and arranged in the height of fashion.
In keeping with the dignity of gray
hair the arrangement is a gracious,
mature coiffure, deeply swirled in the
back, swept up and curled softly on
the side. deep, wide wave on top. 1t
forms soft, charming frame for the
face.
Many mothers whose conscience dc
tates "let II grow gray, graciously' are
Influenced by others. Their own chill
dren. surprising as it may seem, don't
mind their getting gray. To them
mother is still charming and young,
the gray is no sign of age. This is
particularly true If the skin Is clear
and the contour fairly firm. 1t is true,
too, if the hair is faultlessly groomed.
And 1t is true if there is enough Of
the gray-not Just streak here ana
there.
Even tint manufacturers realize that
more and more smart women are per-
mitting their hair to gray. They
realize that the charm Of maturity,
the dignity Of maturity are expressed
in well-kept gray hair, that with 1t
comes a certain distinction. What
they have done is to create a special
rinse, wash, tint or accent shampoo to
keep the gray sans yellow streaks.
With the proper washing it keeps its
shining steel-like color or its blue
whiteness.
