真葛(サネカズラ) Japanese kadsura

　昔は粘性のあるサネカズラの樹液で髪を整えたそうで、美男葛(びなんかずら)とも呼ばれます。女性は使わなかったのだろうか。

　In the old days, it is said that the viscous sap of this plant was used to set hair, and it is also called "美男葛;binan-kazura" in Japanese which means "the handsome man of climbing plant."  I wonder if women had not used it.
