ability in the field of Instructing was exempli fied in November 1956 when she was presented with plaque for being the outstanding hair dressing teacher in the province oot Ontario The plaque was presented in Toronto by Leon Duke who was at that time in charge of hairdressing instruc tion in Ontario Mrs Derwln received her training in New York City un der the direction of Monsieur and Madame Marcel of Fifth Avenue She remembers her first customer as if it was yes terday was so nervous didnt think could go through with it said Mrs Dcrwin smiling But the woman lik ed my work so well she asked for me the next timeshe came to the shop This was all needed to muster my sclfcon fidence In 1915 Mrs Darwin moved to Toronto where she opened her own beauty salon on the comer of Queen and Victoria streets She operated at this location for 15 years CHANGING TIMES In those days the average cost of permanent wave was $25 and this was considered cheap permanent Everyone had long hair and

she took the bull by the horns and had cut one lock of the madames crowning glory be fore she had chance to change her mind again And do you know she thanked me profuse ly said Mrs Dorwin She never looked better Of course kept my end of the bargain and had to cut my own locks Mrs Derwin opened her school for training because of general interest she wanted to pass along her knowledge to others She finds it very satis fying to watch student pro grossing She feels one of the most im portant points of hairdressing is learning to give good sham poo Itrelaxes the customer and many women have their hair done not only to be well groomed but to enjoy the rev laxatlon PRACTICAL EXPERENCE Mrs Derwin encourages her students to keep their minds on their work while learning and doesnt encourage them to get into conversation with their cus tomers After they havemas tered the art then they can de cide whether their customers wish to carry on conversation or just relax can anticipate whether woman wishes soi ituda or conversation but that comes from years of practical uperience she quipped One thing she feels very strongly about is the art of massage She was well ground ed in giving scalp treatments and believes in teaching stu dents the same methods The course commences with theory on shop department hy giene sanitation and steriliza tion Much of thls is book work but is later put to
