Psyllium refers to the seeds of the plant Plantago ovata, a species of plantain, while glandular plantain refers to the plant Plantago afra, also called black psyllium or sand plantain.

<<beer is still used on hair I am told....for rinsing....!>> It is not used as a rinse but during rinsing, because beer hardens the hair and so, when it dries, it takes on the shape it is given. But that was used a loooong time ago...
<<forget the glandular plantain, it is called psyllium>> Well, wiki is uninformed.

<<must have made the hair sticky!>> It could be, depending on the fashion. Don't forget that before hairsprays, beer was used!

which she did not stick to her face with psyllium or quince seed gel, as other girls do. ?

I think they used some kind of jelly/ glue made from these seeds to keep the lock of hair flat near the ear.

a recipe ? I've found one : [Make DIY quince seed hair gel at home with just 2 ingredients: quince seeds and water!... ]
