This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle and is very harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and entirely grease- less) is much better than the most ex- pensive soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't pos sibly i injure the hair. Simply moisten your bair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug sto: It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last every one in the family for months— Advt.
