COIFFURE OF THE MOMENT

Fashion Demands That There Shall Be Height to Add to Its Attractiveness. No longer can we simply part the hair at side or center and let it fall plainly back, to be finally rolled on the neck, or otherwise caught up loosely. On the contrary, there must be decided height to the fashionable coiffure, and this exactly at the tight angle to give the full appearance between the nape of the neck and the apex of the dressing, on which so much of the effect depends. Then, too, the hair must now be waved and beautifully glossy and its charming lines disposed In such a way as to give just the support and finish demanded by the millinery of the moment, a great change from a short time ago, when the ambition of the hat seemed to disguise the fact that the wearer had any hair at all. Swathing of the hair is to play an important part in the new hair dressing, not the mere swathihg of the head with a separate coil In the usual fashion, but the swathing around of the hair itself. It is very becoming when well done. When we hear of pompadour once more It is not the hair rising straight up from forehead and neck alike, but, rather, the hair broken by little hints of parting In front, and elsewhere swathed around the head. A frame or, foundation Is usually required to give to the head the shape and rising height that Is desired.
