Beauty Salon Introduces New Culture Ideas

Competent Staff In New Quarters MODERN HYGIENIC SYSTEM A restful harmony of deepest cream, dark brown and shades of burnished gold is the distinctive colour scheme of the furnishings in the new Sareta Salons, of Beauty Culture. Auckland women who appreciate individual treatment at the hands of expertly trained attendants should visit this salon on the fifth floor of Smith and Caughey’s new building. The most modern methods of hairdressing, permanent waving, facial massage, manicuring, chiropody, and every other phase of beauty culture are employed, the staff of specialists being under the direction of Mrs. Eleanor K. Wright, late of Beath’s Beauty Salons, Christchurch. Mrs. Wright is herself a specialist, and is the holder of Eugene and “Phyllis Earle” diplomas. Everything is highly hygienic. In the hairdressing section a specially sterilised comb is removed from a sealed paper packet for each patron. Especially interesting is the juvenile section oj this up-to-date establishment. Kiddies can now drive in the jolliest motor-cars or ride Cock-horses to Bamburv Cross while having their locks trimmed Round the walls of this original room the heroes and heroines of the best-loved fairy tales come to life in hand-painted pictures. Old King Cole, Little’ Miss Muffett, the Sleeping Beauty, Ali*Baba and Christopher Robin's bear Pooh —they are all there. Then there is a delightfully furnished nursery where children may be left under the care of a trained nurse while their mothers are shopping or having treatment. The walls of this airy room are also painted with entertaining pictures and all kinds of quaint toys are there to keep the children happily amused. In this luxurious new salon patrons are assured of complete and efficient beauty service.
