1696.
To
test
Hair
Dye.
To
try
the
effect
of
hair
dye
upon
hair
of
any
colour,
cut
off
a
lock
and
apply
the
dye
thoroughly
as
directed
above.
This
will
be
a
guarantee
of
success,
or
will
at
least
guard
against
failure.
1697.
The
proper
Application
of
Hair
Dyes.
The
efficacy
of
hair
dyes
depends
as
much
upon
their
proper
application
as
upon
their
chemical
composition.
If
not
evenly
and
patiently
applied,
they
give
rise
to
a
mottled
and
dirty
condition
of
the
hair.
A
lady,
for
instance,
attempted
to
use
the
lime
and
litharge
dye,
and
was
horrified
on
the
following
morning
to
find
her
hair
spotted
red
and
black,
almost
like
the
skin
of
a
leopard.
The
mixture
had
not
been
properly
applied.
1698.
Compounds
to
Promote
the
Growth
of
Hair.
When
the
hair
falls
off,
from
diminished
action
of
the
scalp,
preparations
of
cantharides
often
prove
useful;
they
are
sold
under
various
high-sounding
titles.
The
following
directions
are
as
good
as
any
of
the
more
complicated
receipts:
