An Indian immigrant taught Britain how to wash its hair 200 years ago and invented shampoo, as we know it

Isn't it fascinating to think about who invented shampoo? It turns out that an Indian immigrant named Sake Dean Mahomed brought the concept to Britain over 200 years ago! Before that, the word 'shampoo' actually meant a massage, which is quite different from what we think of today. Mahomed opened a bathhouse in Brighton where he introduced his unique shampooing technique, blending therapeutic massages with aromatic oils. This little piece of history shows how one person's influence can change the way we care for ourselves.
