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!"
