Summary

Pathe synopsis: Of all Nature’s gifts to women, perhaps the one that gets the most attention lavished upon it is the hair. One of London’s top stylists, Freddy French, spends his spare time - working! And working for beauty, too, as he concocts fantastic hair styles on models, using newspapers, shells, candlegrease, and ribbons. All these are used to achieve the desired slightly crazy effect. Honestly! The things they do for beauty!
