Greasers

Greasers were mostly found in northeastern and southern United States of America. They normally listen to rock and roll music. Also, they are known as the hoods. The name greasers comes from their greased back hairstyles. They usually ride around town in hot rods, kustoms, or vans, not as much as riding around on motorcycles.
