THE MOST BEAUTIFUL HAIR IN THE WORLD Hollywood's most famous beauty experts formed Modern Screen's board of judges and cbose these 12 stars as the best-tressed of the year. ■ For the second successive year, nine of Hollywood's top beauty experts were invited by the editors of Modern Screen to select the 12 stars who have the most beautiful hair in the world. The job was both hard (last year's winners were automatically eliminated) and easy (lovely hair is almost a commonplace among Hollywood actresses). But the judges finally decided on these outstanding beauties, who, by combining skillful care with the most flattering coiffure, merited a place among this most select circle. Last year's winners were June Allyson, Ann Blyth, Bette Davis, Rhonda Fleming, Ava Gardner, Deborah Kerr, Virginia Mayo, Maureen O'Hara, Ginger Rogers, Ruth Roman, Elizabeth Taylor, Lana Turner and Jane Wyman. There is a saying among Hollywood beauty experts that goes, "A face is a face, but a head of hair is a mop you can really do something about." Despite the fact that the stars pictured on these two pages have the kind of faces you write home about, they take that saying to heart. They know that hairstyles can make or break them glamorwise, and they pass up coiffure fads for individual cuts that always charm, never grow old. And long ago they learned a simple rule: beautiful hair is clean, shining hair. There are no secret methods for achieving that. Frequent shampooing and brushing result in neverfailing loveliness. So take a tip from those who know— wash your way to glamor! The judges who selected these top 12 stars are: Nellie Manley of Paramount; Jean Burt of Warner Brothers; Larry Germain of RKO-Radio; Irene Brooks of 20th Century-Fox; Joan St. Oegger of Universal-International; Helen Hunt of Columbia; Perc Westmore of Westmore's Salon; Myran Nolt, Beauty Salon, Beverly Wilshire Hotel; Bill Tuttle of . Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. ESTHER WILLIAMS depends on oil treatments to offset the drying effect of chlorine in swimming pools.' RITA HAYWORTH believes in vigorous root massage, twice a day, preferably outdoors for healthy growth. DORIS DAY gets a daily shampoo, knows that the secret of beautiful hair is perfect cleanliness. 48
