Common garden sage, when properly brewed and mixed | with sulphur and a little alcohol, | | makes & wonderful recolorer of gray | hair. You can either prepare the mixture at home yourself, or m conveniently, buy it already p: pared and ready to use. All di gists carry it in the form of Wyet! Sage & Sulphur, and since the cost is only 75c a bottle, there is really no need to prepare it yourself. You simply moisten a comb or ||| soft brush with it and draw it through your hair, one strand at a time. One application banishes the ||| | gray and one or two more completely || restores your hair to its original color, g0 evenly, so naturally that no one can possibly tell you have used | it.
