PLATINUM BLONDE.
NEW SHADE OF HAIR. LATEST ENGLISH FASHION. LONDON", Sept. 6. Platinum blonde is a new shade of hair, which thousands of fashionable women are eagerly seking to attain in order to show off the new black tricorne and bicorne Glengarry hats, writes Lady Patricia Ward in the Daily Mail. A court hairdresser states that a silvery coiffure also enables the wearing of bright red, mauve, and certain shades of green which would be impossible with yellow hair. Four or five treatments, with a week between each, are required to produce the new silvery fairness, which must be redyed monthly. Each treatment costs two guineas. Regular clients are now spending £l2O a year in London beauty parlours. Some have facial treatment and neck, arm, and shoiijfler massage three times a week. Many spend £lO a month on skin foods.
