my mom and various other people have mentioned in the 70s and before people used to use something called ''green soap'' for their hair, face, everything, i dont know if it had a make, can someone tell me what it is and can you still buy it? im told it makes your hair shine like anything?
Fr. Stack: While you were out, I got the keys to your car. And drove it into a big wall. And if you don't like it, tough. I've had my fun, and that's all that matters.

The soap you mention is the traditional Fairy Houshold Soap and is still on sale but not as popular as in days gone by .
I last saw some in Tescos , try larger stores or a local general hardware shop .
