Helpful Hints
A clean drain tile
makes a rustic vase for
displaying dried leaves,
and flowers. It's also
economical at only
pennies per tile.
Try planting ' a few
unpeeled garlic cloves in
a flowerpot. Place the
blunt end down and just
barely cover them with
potting soil. Place in a
window -sill or where
there's adequate light
and in a few weeks, fresh,
tasty green shoots will
appear. Snip and use in
stews, soups or tossed
salads. The plant will last
for months.
In new neighbourhoods
where many ,residents
are starting gardens
from scratch, pool orders
for plants and shrubs.
Nurseries offer better
prices when plants are
ordered in quantity.

CONDITION
THE ULTIMATE MUST
At this time of year, your hair
might feel dry, brittle, hard to
manage. Cold weather, wind, in•
door heating contribute largely to
hair not behaving or looking like
it should.
There are other factors as well
that cause hair damage. They all
fall into two categories: Chemical
and mechanical.
Combing, brushing, tight braid-
ing, improper cutting techniques
all contribute. Heat styling, sun
light, harsh wind add to the prob-
lem.
Chemical damage is more di
rect. Bleaching, perming and tint
ing remove protein from both the
cuticle and the cortex (outside
and middle) layer weakening the
hair and making it susceptible to
breakage. Chlorine water and salt
water make the hair feel dry and
lifeless as well.
While hair treatments can not
synthesize new hair, properly
compounded products, profes
sionally selected for the specific
problem can correct damage and
restore the natural beauty and
manageahility of hair.
As a general conditioner for
excessively dry hair we suggest
Climatress Creme Conditioner by
Redken. The moisture binding in
gredients and the protein alter
the moisture balance of the fiber.
Hair becomes pliable and full of
body.
For hest results use an acid hai
anced shampoo and towel dry.
Apply Climatress Moisturizing
Creme Conditioner to the hair and
leave on for five minutes. Rinse
and style. If hair is excessively
damaged, a series of customized
treatments are the answer.
Remember, that a new style,
colour or perm will only last on a
healthy head of hair and that pro
per conditioning is the ultimate
must.
