[By a Hairdresser.]

"Many women are appalled at the condition of the hair during the early spring, and in increasing numbers como to the saloons for advice and treatment," said a lead ing Mayfair specialist the other day.

The trouble is not due to the acason as is popularly supposed," be went on, "but chiefly because the hair has not had sufficient air and friction of late.”-

The tight-fitting hat usually worn so much during the winter is pro- bably partly responsible. This type of headgear prevents air from reaching the scalp. The pressure also induces perspiration, a condi- tion which encourages dandruff, pre- mature greyness, and lustreleas hair.

Follow up this treatment with an egg aham- poo, and in the final rinsing water adil the strained juice of a lemon. If at all possible, dry the bair in the Open air, failing that, with bot towels. Drying the hair by the fire is a bad practice, since it niakes the hair brittle and shrivels un the colouring matter.
