    roach headdress for grassdance

    I have a son who is 10yrs old and is getting ready to start GrassDancing. My question is since his dad is white and not into native traditions who or where would I have the roach made? A friend is making the rest of his regalia other than the roach and the moccasins. I would apperciate any help.:Angel2

      Aside from powwowbum, there are a lot of places you can buy a pre-made roach. You can even order them custom from some of the places. Crazy Crow, Buffalo Chips(although I am not sure they are in business any more), Noc Bay, and plenty of others. But, I suggest from what I have seen, Powwowbum49 might be a better bet.

        " I will now tell of dancing and how many men and women among you have no interest in it. Many of you who dance know the beauty of it, and know that it is the highest form of enjoyment. What evil things you had planned to do, you will not do. You will keep your mind on only the dancing and your body will be well; it will not be fat...whoever dances is never sick as long as he dances. Going to dances is good fun. If someone does not do this, I don't know why he is on earth... While you are alive, you will give homage to the Great Spirit, and you will do favors for others, and then you will enjoy yourself. IF ONE DOES NOT DO THESE THINGS, HE WILL EXPLODE WITHIN HIMSLEF. These three things are the highest in law. Realize this. These things are highest in law.So be it.

            Indianloving1: Powwowbum49 is both an excellent roachmaker and an honest person. He can make anysize roach and any color. That is why so many champions are wearing his products. At one time he sold to several of the Indian outlets.

            How do I know?

            No, I didn't read it in a old Ben Hunt book at the dentist's office.

            I have three of his roaches. One is the mate to the "Frankinstein" that he wears. My roach is called, "the bride of Frankenstein!"
            Powwows will continue to evolve in many directions. It is inevitable.

                          Hey all'
                          I'm just looking for some input. I have a few ?s reguarding roaches.
                          1. I noticed that the current trend seems to be longer is better. Is there a general consensus on prefered length for grass dancers?

                          I have never worn a roach before. I am wanting to know how to attach the roach to the head. I know that it can be done using 2 scalp locks held with pins, but what about the German silver spreaders. Tell mw how this works? How is the feather attached to the spreader and how does the spreader stay...
