Dry Hair Naturally if You Would Keep Scalp Healthy, Says Beauty TOWARD the close of the nineteenth century, when the height of daring for a girl consisted of exposing a well-turned ankle, long hair was considered one of the most potent beauty assets.

In that era. the Seven Sutherland sisters were the envy of other women. For those girls possessed hair that was not only unusually long, but also was of a lovely thickness. And I can't imagine shampooing and drying hair of such length and thickness. It must have been a terrific task for those Sutherland girls.

And it probably took hours for their hair to dry thoroughly, for in those days hair was not dried artificially, as it often is today. Although the occasional use of a hot air virrent will not greatly harm the hair, this drying method is likely to have a detrimental effect on the health of the hair if employed too frequently. It is for this reason that I recommend drying the hair naturally, Blasts of hot air dry the scalp and call heavily upon the store of natural oil that it possesses. And if your scalp does not exude sufficient oil to supply the normal quantity to your a few hot air dryings may cause appearance of dry, scaly dandruff on your scalp. Even if you have an excessively oily scalp, the hot air current still can prove harmful.

For blasts of hot air will not make unhealthy oil glands function more normally. Dry Naturally. Hair always should be permitted By GLADYS GLAD. to dry naturally, if possible. This is especially simple when the hair is naturally curly.

After such hair has been shampooed and thoroughly rinsed. all moisture should be removed with a warm towel, and the hair should then be tossed about with the 'hands until almost dry. Then, while still bit damp, it should be combed and the natural wave pressed in. When the hair requires careful setting and the use of a waving lotion, of course, it is somewhat more difficult to let it dry naturally. In this case, as above, all excess moisture should be removed with a warm towel, and the hair tossed about a bit with the hands.

Then the waving lotion should be applied and the waves set. When the hair is completely waved, all excess moisture should be removed by pressing the ridges of the waves between the fingers with a dry linen towel. Then the hair should be permitted to dry naturally. ANSWERS TO QUERIES. Legs.
