    Somewhere I read that the Romans thought the Scots invented soap. I don't know if that is true.
    None of my Dine' or Zuni friends were greasing their hair... I really don't know the history too well on hair greasing. That being said, these friends were quite awear of how to make or use yucca shampoo, and some other soaps. This was N/W N. M.. Hair washing and care was or is a big deal. My Pueblo friends had the longest hair, and now that I think about it, they were way into modern shampoo. One of my Dine' GFs, almost wife, was a shampoo freak.
    Also, so it's clear, I was pointing out that my father's generation was greasing their hair in the fifties because he isn't "Native American."

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
