Some arrangements resemble hats with stiff bandeau hair as brims. Other coiffures suggest a diadem ot stiff curls, while a new wind-blown effect may be used, curls adorning one sido of the head, whilo on the other there is an alternative to the wig in a, bandeau of hair like a lialf-curled flat ostrich feather lying on the lorehead.
