TRY BLEACHING HAIR
WHICH MARS BEAUTY
By JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON
An Increasingly large number of letters reach me asking for informa
tion about superfluous hair. This is one branch of beauty culture that
has had no recent innovations about which to write. Consequently all
writing on this subject must of necessity be along
the general lines of information I have given you
previously.
• I think the most Important feature of the so
called ruperfluous hair question is that every woman
should determine clearly what superfluous hair is.
At innumerable public appearances I've been ap
proached by women asking for advice about the re
moval of superfluous hair and in the majority of
such cases the hair they referred to was not super
fluous nor was it noticeable to an extent that justi
fied the concern over it.
Many women have a fine, light down covering
the lower part of the face and it is this they term
superfluous hair.
JOSEPHINE That growth of down is not superfluous hair. It
HUDDLESTON is a natural protection to the skin. It is usually fine
in texture, light in color and. unless one looks for it
under most unusual circumstances, unnoticeable. If
tampered with, the growth would soon become heavier and darker in
color, unless removed by electrolysis, a method which kills the roots and
so makes a new growth impossible.
But. since the hair is unnoticeable why should it be removed? Such
lemoval is expensive and a certain^
amount of chance is always present i
as to whether or not the removal
i will be completely successful and
without danger. If the hair be
comes so dark and coarse that it is
disfiguring, try bleaching It before
using depilatories and so starting
an interminable battle against a
condition that need never have
arisen.
Therefore, it is vitally important
to your happiness and to your
beauty that you do not think of
this down as superfluous ham. The
very word should be a guide in
determining whether hair snould be
removed or not since it means I
"rendered unnecessary by super
abundance." And until such time
r there is a super-abundant
amount of hair on your face or
arms and a remedy that is absol
utely harmless as well as an ef
fective remover the greatest re-;
straint should be used.
In my succeeding artice this sub
chopped cabbage. 2 tablespoons
chopped sweet pickles. 1-2 teaspoon
salt, 1-4 teaspoon paprika.
Pour the boiling water over the
gelatin mixture and stir until it has
dissolved. Cool and add the rest of
the ingredients. Pour into a mold
which has been rinsed oat of cold
water. Set in a cold place to congeal
and when ready to serve unmold on
lettuce leaves and surround with sal
ad dressing.
Salad Dressing
(For fish or vegetable salads)
4 egg yolks or 2 eggs, 4 tablespoons
flour. 1 teaspoon salt. 4 tablespoons
sugar. 1-4 teaspoon dry mustard. 1-4
teaspoon pepper. 1-2 cup vinegar,
1-2 cup vinegar, 2-3 cup water, 2 ta
blespoons butter.
Beat the egg yolks and add the
flour, salt, sugar, mustard and pep
per. Add the vinegar and water and
cook in a double boiler until tihck
and creamv. Stir frequently to pre
vent lumping. Add the butter and
beat for 1 minute. Pour into a jar
which has been dipped in cold wat
er. Cool and chill. When readv to
serve this dressing can be thinned
with plain sour or whipped cream.
When subtsituting cocoa for choc
olate. use 2 tablespoons of cocoa
(level measurements, of course» for
each square of chocolate.
