From DOROTHY ELLIOTT
Simple short Bobs are high-fashion
this year with the school set.
They emphasize your eyes and ara
simplicity itself to care for. Tha
attention of a skill
ed stylist in cut
ting and shaping is
a must, though.
Then give it body
and manageability
with a good perm
anent. Popular types ara
the lifted - top,
swept back off
your face in the casual manner.
Bandeau bangs, carefully brushed
across your forehead, tipping your
eyebrows and gently sweeping
your cheek. And the Bob-cap look,
puffing gently out around your
face and cupping in at the back
in softly shaped fullness. For tha
curlier locks, enticing sweeps and
swirls, femininely bewitching. Try
one! You'll love it!
Let us, here at De-Na's Beauty
Salon, give you long-lasting charm
with an eye-catching new hair
