THE NEWTON HAIRDRESSER

The art of tli» hairdresser in relation to the toilet requirements of li is follows is well illustrated in the service of Mr Arnold E. Bell, whose establishment in France Street, just olf Karangahape Road and beside the Kind's Theatre, is popularly patronised by business people i\nd residents on the Newton and I'onsonby .side of tlie city. Mr. Bell briiiK-s to his work n long experience in hairdressing and in tin? tobacco retail trade, and his up-to-date saloon, fitted with the latest continental facilities for prompt nnd efficient attention to patrons, fully deserves widespread nppreeiation. Haireutting (including for ladies), shaving and massiifrc, come within tlio daily ruulino. and. in '.lie last-mentioned, it may be stated that Mr. Hell is an adept, as (ho result of practical training {rained i" Franco. Ho was one of the first to v-<> the hiSfh frequency method in Auckland. In addition to paying scrupulous care to the sterilisation of razors and brushes before mid after each usage. Mr. Bell has an exclusive antiseptic, shaving cream, the secret for the preparation of which he acquired abroad from a noted physician. This formula, which produces a perfect •skin emollient, makes a peneroua and non-drying lather, and after a shave the skin is free and fresh. The reason is that this exclusive cream, which h much in demand amongst men who prefer to shave at home, is free from acids and other chemicals common to most shaviiifr soaps or mixtures. A visit to Hells in Franco Street will amply convince anyone that the proprietor conducts his saloon on scientific lines. In other words, his business is not only a business, but a hobby.
