Corinthians 11:14 and 15:
“Doth not even nature it
self teach you, that, if a
man have long hair, it is a
shame unto him? But if a
woman ha ve long hair, it is
a glory to her; for her hair
is given her for a cover
tegr*-;
Does thi* mean that wo
men shoukTnever cut their
hair? Three cosmetologists
polled feel that the
female’s hair can and
should be trimmed and-or
shaped into a style be
coming that lady’s
facial features.
Benji Carpenter, owner
of Shear Illusions Unisex
* 'Styling Salon, 728 Central
Ave., states the following:
“Hair is a woman’s glory
but that doesn’t mean that
she can’t have it styled to
enhance her appearance.
All women don’t look good
with long hair. A stylist
- complements a lady with a
Style so the hair can be the
glory...that includes taking
care of it, trimming it, and
or giving a nice hair cut’’
According to Carpenter,
trimming hair eliminates
damaged ends - “split
ends” as they are most
commonly called. "When
the ends split they become
like a rope unraveling
down the hair shaft and the
hair will get shorter and
shorter. A trim wiO en
hance the growth of the
hair and is very important.
Trimming hair is like too
ping your grass.. . because
when you top graaa, it
becomes thicker...NPftoet
the hair when it is taken
care of properly . ”
According to Elotaa Fer

Lins ten Williams, owner
of Exclusively Yours Hair
Design, 1603 West Boule
vard, feds that the cutting
of hair keeps it healthy
while it’s growing. “Some
People think that if you
keep cutting the hair you
will keep it short. But hair
grows ooe-fourth of an inch
or more per month. If you
as trim someone’s hair once a
month or once every two
months you won't trim one
fourth off. Trimming also
guarantees less split ends
and less breakage of the
hair.”

Hairstyles for women are
more varied this year than
ever before, according to
Lorraine Ewing, Clairol
beauty specialist. But,
whatever hairstyle you

your message across
unless you follow these
bask rules for good hair
care.

— Remember that your
hairdresser can’t work
miracles. Having beautiful
hair requires your coope
ration too, so give your hair
tender loving care every

- Shampoo at least once
a week, even if your hair is
dry. Choose a shampoo

your hair type, such as
Clairol condition shampoo

thoroughly, since any left

ways to do it.
