NEW HAIR STYLES

THE “LONG BOB.” One of the chief complaints against women in general, declares a Hollywood hairdressing expert, is their desire to copy rather than create their own hair styles. And with the endless variety of styles in existence to-day there is no reason to do this. For those who wish to find their “personality” in the hair he gives these few rules; (1) All arrangements are a great deal more feminine now. Soft effects around the face should be concentrated upon. (2) Ears have come out from hiding and are now at least half exposed. (3) More than usual attention is I given to the left side of the head—the ’ small hats worn over the right ear j show at least half of the head. (4) The hair is smooth and lies close to the head, but most women are avoiding that sleek lacquer or mask effect. There is one coiffure in Hollywood, he continues, which is achieving tremendous popularity with those who wear their hair in the "long bob” style. The hair is evenly divided by a centreparting from the forehead to the neck; it is pulled to each side and the ends are gathered into informal clusters of smooth curls directly behind and over the ears. It has a wonderful effect with tall, slender women, but tends to exaggerate the build of those who are rather plump.
