That the world will be filled with bald-headed women during the next generation • was the declaration made by an American hairdresser at a convention m New York. He took the stand that bobbed hair is a sure means for causing baldness. If women and young girls do not stop bobbing their hair, lie said, a terrible spectacle may be the result. He based his conclusions on the fact that milliners, in order to conform to present day hair cuts among women, particularly tlie haircut known as the 'garcon," which is. explained as being a "boyish bob," have been obliged to make head bands exceedingly tight in order to keep the hats on tiie head. This results in the bands growing sweaty and the hair dry from that and from lack of blood circulation. The speaker also said that girls of the present generation will be bald before they, reach maturity.
