Hair Curling Secrets
"I cannot too stronitly condemn the
use of the hot curllng-lron," says Rita I
ninya. it means rtoaui to the hair event
ually. Moreover It Is entirely unneceaary.
The hair can be made beautifully wavy
and curly to any extent and In any form
desired, merely by using such a simple
thing as pure sllmerlne. This perfectly
harmless liquid should be applied to the
hair with a clean tooth nrusn at night.
In the morning you will find that a very
beautiful natural wave and curllness has
resulted, and the eifect will last a con
siderable tlmo.
"The liquid sllmerlne Is very beneficial
and Is not sticky or greasy. Neither does
It streak the hair or stain the scalp. You
need not get more than a few ounces
from your druggist. The best way Is to
divide the front and back hair Into from
four to six strands and to moisten each
strand thoroughly from root to tip. -Advertisement.
