There's a side part, evening · hair- dress. Section-off front used for up- ward part. Wave centre portion and place five large pin curls made over two fingers in back of the wave. Make two rows of three pin curls each on sides, rolling them upward. The back is brushed down straight and rolled under on paper rollers. This hair- dress can also be worn with the net of corresponding colour to gown covering the page-boy roli.

For these rollers I take strips of paper and roll them up tightly, and fasten them with liquid cellophane. They are light and very easy to use. I also use shorter rollers of balsam wood, equally light.

The reason. I had the rolls extend away from the head is that this girl is narrow through the temples and has a slender neck, so the page boy is brought out in back of each ear to offset this.

Blonde hair is no longer the vogue in Hollywood, as elsewhere. There was a time at openings and big Holly- wood affairs when almost every girl came in white ermine, with blonde hair cut in a short bob. It was im- possible to tell which celebrity had just arrived.

Now the girls who were blonde are having their hair, made "brownette," as the late Jean Harlow did before her death.

Brownette is not brown, but a sort of variegated fair hair with just a touch of red gold in it. Those girls who are still blonde are those who usually play heavies or hard-boiled "molls."

A natural blonde, like Virginia Bruce, of course, keeps her beautiful blonde tresses. But Virginia does. very little to take away from the lovely colour and texture of her hair. She has it cut rather shorter than most Hollywood actresses wear it, and. does it with an almost invisible wave on top and only slight curl at the ends, very simple also very trying unless you are as lovely as Virginia.

- Jean Arthur is another blonde who prefers the verý flat hair wave, hard- ly more than an indication of a wave, than straight down with just the ends curled under.

Younger actresses come in and beg to have their hair done "like Jean Arthur's," not knowing that her style. is so simple that it isn't distinctive and they won't look like Jean just because they follow it.
