HAIR BEAUTY WITHOUT TONIC OR SOAP WASHES.
If you notice a woman with deadlooking dry, and brittle hair, you may depend on it she is not particular in avoiding tho use of soap or ready-mixed shampoos, which contain too much alkali, a harsh chemical that never should touch the hair. If you are one of the few who like to make the most of your hair—like to niako it look heavier than it is, read this:^-
Really the most elegant and safe thi g to use is ordinary coiiiiatcd coconut oil (a pure saponified, but quite greaseless liquid), which is not r.t all expensive—but is far, far better than soaps or other scalp-injurious things. Every chemist keeps a supply of this, and a few ounces lasts you and -mother, sisters .and brothers, for months. Just wet the hair with water and rub it through—thoroughly. One or two teaspoonsful is plenty to create a big quantity of rich, heavy, creamy lather. It cleanses delightfully and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and easily, and comes out brilliant, soft, fluffy, wavy, and fresh as a daisy, looking much thicker than it actually is. Best of all, this colinated coconut oil leaves the hair as easy to dress again as though you hadn't washed it at all. And yet it loosens anil carries off overy bit of excess piliness, dust, dirt, or dandruff scurf, ' ' .
