Cream Rinse

I was just washing and setting Mom's hair and was thinking back...

Do you remember when cream rinse first came out? I think it was late fifties or early sixties?  At least that's when our family started using it. Before then it was just get the tangles out of wet hair the best you could. OUCH!

Now... do you remember the instructions on the back of the bottle for how to use it? uh huh... Mix x amount of cream rinse (was it 2 TBS or something?) into a cup of water, pour over your hair while catching it in a bowl as it runs off your head. Repeat several times.

I remember asking Mom, "Why don't we just put the stuff on our hair, rub it in, and then rinse it off?" Her words of wisdom on that..."That isn't what the instructions say to do."
