I notice in stores that black people have a whole separate line of hair care from white people...shampoos, relaxers, oils, etc. What is the difference between the two types of hair?

It has to do with the texture of the hair.

Our hair is just thick.It's only dry and thick after wetting making us need to apply care products.We take far more time on our hair than Caucasians do.Because we use grease we don't get head lice.After they wash they blow dry add some things,and it most likely is flat depending on hair thickness.In conclusion,our hair is just thick.

Their individual hair strands are a lot finer than most white peoples hair..and their scalp usually does not porduce oil so there hair gets really dry and brittle very easily...but usually their hair is more elsatic than white peoples...It can take more heat, that where the oil products come in

Black hair is very tightly curled, and the circumference of the strand is much larger. It tends to be dryer and more fragile because of the spirals which prevent precious natural oils from reaching the ends of the hair.

Black hair is much coarser. They need special products to care for it. They also get much oilier scalps than we do, which is why they do ot shampoo daily.
