Blonde hair has always had an attraction value and desirability. Fake blondes have existed long in history.
The Gallokelten liked to consider themselves closely related to the Germanokelten ,
and for this reason sometimes dyed or bleached their brown hair in an attempt to make
it blond. [502] Gauls taken prisoner by the Romans were required to do this in order to
represent Germani at the triumphal procession of Caligula. [498] According to Pliny (born A.D. 61 or 62), they were accustomed to use a special soap, made from goat fat
and beech ash, which has the effect of making the hair reddish. [8481 This soap,
sometimes called ‘sapo Batavorum\ appears to have been an invention of the tribe
called Chatti (probably an offshoot of the Belgae). The dyeing or bleaching effect of
this substance is not explained by what we know of its chemical composition. Diodorus
remarks that it was used by the TaAara/ although their hair was already blond. 12741 In
his Epigram XXVI, Martial (died A.D. c. 104) recommends Roman women to use it,
to improve the lustre of their wigs made from the locks of German slaves. [ 705 ]
