Hairdressing for the Nursery Folk

Children’s hair, like that of grown-ups, should be carefully cut and dressed to suit the little owner’s face. Fashions in children’s hairdressing have changed as completely as our own, and should receive the same careful thought and attention. A curly-haired lassie is indeed blessed of the gods, but many a head which in infancy gives such promise produces lank, unmanageable locks as the child grows older, The formation of the brow is a great consideration. A wide forehead is beautiful in ‘a child and should not be hidden. A high forehead is often better covered with a fairly thick fringe reaching almost to the eyebrows. The Botticelli cut. is very becoming to small, round faces, with either a side or middle parting. Little peculiarities need to be considered. A "double crown" yields best to a long side parting, and a "cow lick" can look quite distinguished if the hair is brushed straight back from the face.
