LACQUERED HAIR.
AMAZING COIFFURES,
LONDON, January 14,
Lacquered hair! Fashion dictates its j usage and proscribes other startling changes. There are bits of ideas from older generations and it will be chic for a woman, believing she is a rejuvenated Cleopatra, to affect an Egyptian style of headdress. Many other amazing coiffures have been created to accompany the spring fashions for women's evening wear. Transparently lacquered wigs of the same colour as the wearer's hair and a more elaborate type lacquered in dull silver and gold, giving the appearance of sculpture, will slip on tho head like a cap, the lacquer ensuring that curls and locks will remain in position for months. Some arrangements resemble hats with stiff bandeau hair as brims. Other coiffures suggest a diadem of stiff curls, while a new wind-blown effect may be used, curls adorning one side of the head, while on the other there is an alternative to the wig in a bandeau of hair like a half-curled fiat ostrich feather lying on the forehead. The fashion will be a boon to women unable to visit tho coiffure, as it disguises untidyness.
