BRADLEY'S HAIR STYLIST Baxter Street Shopping Center Before Mrs. Parrott is hackling a swatch of blonde hair, preparing it for blending. Watching is June Edgens, who remarks, "See my short hair." Gallant-Belk Has It Wigmakers Aid Nature With New Hair Blending Process By JUNE EDGENS Today's piled-high hair-do's, with thick braids, pony-tails and piles of curls, take a lot of hair. And as any woman will tell you, hair takes a long time to grow. Into this breach have stepped American wig-mak- ers. whose techniques with synthetic fibers have given nature a helping hand and in the process, made wigs al- most as popular as lipstick. The success secret for hair- pieces is in the color blending, says Jo Parrott, a consultant for Heavenly Creations who I was in Athens last week to open a new blending operation at Gallant-Belk Company. The store's wig department. creates the long hairpieces for braiding or pinning up, and also can provide wiglets and full wigs. Mrs. Parrott, like all other blenders of the Heavenly company, attended a school held at their Norfolk, Va., headquarters to learn the fine art of color matching. Most hair, she said, as from. four to seven colors in it which must be matched for a natural-looking chignon. Mrs. Parrott and Ann Col- lins, who will be the regular operator at Gallant-Belk, I have 38 hair colors for blend- ing, ranging from lightest blonde through all the browns, to three shades of black- blue-black, reddish black and greenish black. Then there are the pastel pinks, blues and lavenders, touches of which are often needed to give an exact shade. Green, not a color often as- sociated with hair, is present in most hair, Mrs. Parrott said, and it must be duplicat- ed in a hairpiece. "Once I found 22 different colors in a girl's hair," she said, "and it took 45 minutes to blend her hairpiece." Half an hour is the usual time required for the blending operation, but in a demonstra- tion Friday, four shades of blonde and brown were min- gled in only five minutes for a perfect match. Surprisingly, the most diffi- cult hair color to match is brown, because there are so many shades and highlights. An all-over blend, allowing for some color change, is the an- swer, Mrs. Parrott explained. Girls from pre teen to 80 are all customers for the blen- ders. Mrs. Parrott recalled one elderly lady who left wearing her new chignon, saying, "Now to find myself at man!"
