BRUSHING FOR GLOSS
Brushing, if done regularly, will give that gloss to the hair which is so essential if one wants to look well-groom-ed, and massage is an excellent thing for dandruff. Sometimes a good tonic may be used, but just the loosening of the scalp will work wonders. Those troubled with dandruff should also try hot oil treatments before washing. Rub warm olive oil into the scalp, wrap up the head and leave it like that for some hours.
For brightening the hair and bringing out its natural colour several simple remedies may be used. The blonde will probably prefer a lemon rinse, while the girl with brown hair can bring out any autumn tints it has by a harmless henna shampoo. The egg shampoo is very good for brightening the hair, and so is the camomile rinse. For the latter, buy some camomile flowers from your chemist, and over a tablespoonful of these pour a pint of boiling water. When cool pour over the head as a final rinse.
