So You Want To Dye Your Hair; Why Not, If It Pleases You? By ALICIA HART NEA Service Staff Writer Women living as far apart as New York and Minnesota ask me, at the same time, “How can I tint my hair a desired color with out dyeing it?” and, “Should I dye my hair to get a good war time job for which I believe a woman with graying hair wouldn’t be considered?” I’d say to both, and to all women who are worrying over gray hair: Nobody but you can or should make the decision for you; and you should be able to make the decision easily in the light of a few facts. DYEING IS NOT A STIGMA TODAY The first fact to consider is that dyed hair is not nowadays the hazard-frought, obvious, stigma tized thing it was to your mother and grandmother—if it is done well and cared for properly. I know several women who dye their tresses, but whose best friends don’t know it. However—and here is the sec ond fact to consider—gray hair is not the tattletale of “age” that it once was, either. The “life begins at 40” philosophy has been spread ing for some tme, and you watch the war give it a terrific push. People are beginning to think in terms of “middle life” instead of “middle age.” And I mean people generally, including employers and including very charm-conscious, charm-valuing men and women. So, don’t go rushing off to dye Hair in desperation at the mistak en notion that gray locks relegate a woman to limbo. Now, if you nevertheless prefer to dye your hair, and cooperate, there should be nothing to worry about. Be sure to do these things: REACH YOUR OWN DECISION 1. Don’t let anyone persuade you to change the color of your hair. Make up your mind, and tell the expert you choose, that you want your hair as close to the natural, original color as can be achieved. tAnd that is plenty close!) 2. Plan now to have your hair re-colored often. It would be a good idea to arrange for this when you have the hair dyed. For this re-coloring is the whole secret of satisfaction. How often it is done depends on how fast your hair grows. As soon as untinted hair emerges from the scalp enough to show, even at a distance—well, obviously you cannot go around with gray streaks at the scalp. 3. If your budget cannot take frequent re-colorings, ask the ex pert who dyes your hair to sug gest a dye which you can apply at home between visits to the salon for expert re-coloring. And be sure that the expert who suggests this home-use preparation shows you how to use it. 2 -V Work on the long-projected high way from the United States t Alaska through Canada has start ed after approval by the joint Unit ed States-Canadian Board.
