world of women
DOME CURLE FI E is a dome-shaped crown of c u rls that en
hances your own brushed-hack h air. F o r Jay o r evening, it's
the perfect hairpiece accessory’ to your fashion w ardrote.
Charles Reuben designed the Dome fo r Summit of A fry lic . tie
firs t fib e r designed to simulate the Black woman's h air. All
you need do is comb o r brush to the desired fullness, brush back
your own hair and place it on. It's just that simple.
CURLY PUFFS that are soft, bouncy loops of curls go from the
casual to the romantic with a brush of the hair. Charles Reuten
designed C urly Puffs fo r Summit of A fry lic . the firs t fiber de
signed to simulate the Black woman’ s h a ir. They come two to a
package and can be worn individually or pairedas pictured. Five
beautiful colors are available in blacks, browns and auburn.
Black wig designer fashions styles
"B la c k
women
have a
greater task of easily achiev
ing new and intersting hair
styles.”
These words were
echoed recently by Charles
Reuben, designer fo r Summit
A fry lic Wigs, and he ought to
know . M r. Reuben enjoys the
unique status of being the
only Black wig designer in
the country. And Summit is
the only Black-ow ned company
making wigs fo r Blackwomen.
Together, they act as a team
loyal to the idea of providing
Black women with the kind
of products they need.
According to M r . Reuben,
hairpieces serve a dual pur
pose. Because of the d ifficult
nature of a Black woman's
h air,
hairpieces take the
struggle out of standing before
a m ir r o r fo r hours creating
interesting hairdos o r costly
sessions at the hairdresser.
They also act as a fashion
accessory, as the right belt
you would wear with pants or
sweaters. M r . R e u b e n 's
"h a irp ie ce w ardrobe" is in
tended to accomplish these
things.
It consists of a Dome C u r-
lette ($12.00) which is placed
at the crown of head, A fro
Puffs and C urly Puffs ($9.95
a p a ir each) which can he
worn together o r separately
and run the gamut from casual
to dressy.
A ll three com
bined can give an endless
variety of looks every day,
7 days a week, with a flic k
of the brush fo r a cost of
$31.90 plus tax.
A ll of Summit's hairpieces
are made of a unique fiber
called A fry lic , a modacrylic
fib e r expecially designed to
simulate a Black woman's
h air. Each comes with a
eO-day warranty and complete
care andwashing instructions.
A choice of five colors is
available —Black, o ff Black.
Dark Brown, Chestnut Brown
and Auburn.
