THE CHINA MAIL, FEBRUARY 14, 1998,

Hair dressings that are becom- *ing to the not-so-young are shown. The upward trend is the thing of the moment and has a certain dignity and charm. In the centre sketch the hair is drawn up from the back and arranged in curls on the crown, with a bolster curl on the forehead. The first coiffure, also, has the hair taken up at the back and away from the forehead, in this case, to form two low, close curls across the top of the head. Centre parting and sausage curls forming a kind of halo is another new coiffure style.
