Shampooing at Home.
An egg is one of the best cleansers of the head and hair that can be used. Break the egg and beat it up well. Put a little warm water in a basin, lean the head over it and damp the head and hair all over. Next dip the fingers in the beaten egg and rub thoroughly with it. It will make quite a lather and bring out the dirt. Proceed till all the egg is used and every portion of the head has been rubbed with it. The hair must now be thoroughly and carefully rinsed, using plenty of water. The water should be poured over the head by a second person. When all the egg is quite rinsed off and the hair clean rub the head vigorously to dry it, and then the long hair. Let it hang loose for an hour or so, allowing the air to play through it. Hair will be improved by drying it in the open where the sun can shine on it. It is not advisable to dress the hair too soon after washing it.
