' By ALICIA HART j NEA Staff Writer ' An oval or heart-shaped face, begs for a bang, so the hair stylists say. And so believes Broadway's Nelle Fisher, "On the Town" dancer whose elfin charm rivets as many eyes as her twin kling feet! i That's why she gathered a fan shaped section of hair from the orown, and trimmed it just long enough to be curved gently un der. "A bang is also good to mask a high forehead, -like mine," -says' Nelle, "and to make a cleaner looking hair line." As ,for upkeep of the . hair-do which goes with a bang, Nelle says it's the easiest of all , to swing. All she has to do is to wash it often such simplicity demands the most in cleanliness and roll up the ends while her hair is drying. Northside Club ! .
