WOMEN’S HAIR
THE SHINGLE DOOMED CLARA BUTT’S BELATED SUPPORT IS THE WORST OVER? (United Press Assn.—By Telegraph—Copyright.) (Rec. 5.5 p.m.) London, October 15. Dame Clare Butt confessed at the opening of the hairdressers’ fair at White City that she did not like the shingle five years ago, but she was now converted. She often envied those having shingled hair and was thinking hard about it. The exhibition, however, revealed that Dame Clara Butt was too late, for the shingle definitely is dying, but hairdressers admit the fact that the exhibition is almost confined to models and mannequins showing how to dress hair while it is growing. Each small bunch is waved and curled on the nape of the neck or tied over the ears. The Daily Express describes the intermediate stage as a phantasm or hideous dream, but men cheerfully help women through, hoping the worst is now over. The annual exhibition at Paris to-day revealed the same thing.—Australian Press Association.
