Soap should be us;d very carefully, if i you want to keep your hair looking its ! best. Most soaps and preeared sham poos contain too mucn amau. i ma dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is just ordinary mulsifSed cocoanut oil (wht(h is pure and greaseless). and is better than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves the scalp soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage. Tou can get mulsifled cocoanut oil at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. Adv.
