Hair up — Hair Down
Are Edwardian Coiffures Becoming?

Brush out your hair, and then, with a comb, a mirror and a few hair clips, decide on your new hair style.

First, brush the hair back from the brow and fold it in a roll across the top of the head. Does this add dignity, or make you look plain? Perhaps flat curls on the brow line, or rolls at the side of the head will suit you better. Study the effect, profile, and full face.

Now some attention to the nape of the neck! Here a critical friend may be more helpful than a mirror. Brush your hair up at the back and hold it with a comb. Study the profile and the back line of the head. Does the hair grow neatly at the nape?

If you are satisfied, you can brush your hair up to a crown of rolls and curls. A back comb will help you, and for outdoor wear have one of the new hats with a bandeau.

If you honestly realize that “straight Edwardian” doesn't suit you, choose a simpler but equally charming style with hair brushed away from the brow and ears, and with flat curls at sides and back.

Simplicity suits the young girl. I suggest a soft curl across the top of the head and the ends turned under or up in a neat roll at the back.
