Article: N. N., If Emergency Brakes Could Tell. Advertisement: "Remember — that only healthy hair remains permanently beautiful — and therefore be especially careful to keep it healthy! You can do nothing better for this than to rinse your hair with Schwarzkopf hair gloss powder after every hair wash. Because this hair astringent will give your hair its natural strength, its natural frizz and its beautiful natural shine. It frees the hair from the alkalis contained in any hair shampoo, which mainly cause the 'aging' of the hair. Even if you wash your hair more often than before, this can never be damaging if you always rinse with hair gloss powder. Hair shine powder comes at no extra charge with every bag of Schwarzkopf Shampoo Extra. Note the packaging type: 'visibly attached to the outside of the bag' — this is how you recognize the original Hair Gloss Powder. Schwarzkopf-Extra makes your hair beautiful, — Hair Gloss Powder keeps it healthy! New! Schwarzkopf Hair Wash 'liquid' (chamomile and tar) bottle for several head washes 50 Pf. Schwarzkopf Shampoo Extra with Hair Shine Powder," photo: unknown/unsigned.
