Yes, it is a hair dressing, kind of thick and oily, usually perfumed - men used to use it to slick their hair back, women used it to highlight their hair, improve the shine. Seems to have been largely replaced by the "gel" styling products.

Bluebelle got it right. It gave your hair a nice shine a good smell and a nice red tint.




Sometimes it helps to show your finds to your elders, they are a wealth of info.[8|]
