Practical hair

style-it's smart

and easy to do

THIS is called the "Bustle Coiffure" because it gives the correct head-balance to the peplum and bustle fashion. But it is trim, chic, and above all, practical.

if you do not like bustle try this hair style all the same, for

Only the front pieces of the model's hair have been per-. manently waved, the rest of the head is left in its natural state, and is cut in a close shingle. The tiny side fringe is optional.

Now let Leonard of Taura tell you how to dress your own hair in this style, and how to keep it looking neat between visits to your haidresser.

"I cut the hair as for a shingle, but the front pieces are cut in different lengths according to the number of curls. These are varied to suit individual taste. The sketch shows three curls over the left ear and a double row over the right car.

"For the fringe I simply take a few strands from the long rouleau-curl at the top of the head a nd curl them very lightly. They can be brushed back into the curl for those times when a fringe is not needed.

"When dressing the hair for this style, first brush the back part of the head until it lies smooth and sleek; then comb the front picces through with a backward and upward movement (never downwards). Use a tail comb for adjusting the curls.”
