While the soap is cooling take a thoroughly clean brush and brush your long hair free of tangies and surface dust. Wipe the brush fre- quently on fresh towel. Purt your hair at Intervals and brush between partings to free the scalp and hair of flakes of cuticle or "dry dandruff," it is called. Brush some more, then wet your hair by plunging your head Into a basin of warm water. Pour some of the soap over your head und work up a good lather-not only aver the scalp but down the length of the ntr strands. Rinse and re- pent the soaping.

Dry the hair by hand, preferably In the sunlight. In the winter you may dry it near a radiator or stove, Įbut do not use a hot air drier. When the hair is dry, comb out the tangles and brush your hair thoroughly. Bend forward from your hips and brush your hair up from the nape of the neek, over your head and down. Then raise up and part the hair into strands, brushing cach strand up, back and down with quick strokies.
