what is the difference between a white head and black head? A what causes them?

Answer 1

White heads are more or less caused by imperfections in the skin. Black heads are caused by dirt or oil that builds up on the face. White heads come in two forms. The first is an "in deep" type which when popped will slither out into a long hair like structure. The second is a short white head in which an amount of white puss has accumulated at the top. Black heads are as they say, black at the tip when they have been allowed to grow. They are characterized by what some call mini potholes. The 'black' is the grime and oil that is in your skin which has "aged".
Hope that answers your question.

For blackheads / white head you need to see this guide https://tr.im/skincare828 There are many solutions out there but most are just hyped up marketing schemes. There are simple solutions that worked in the past and still work without using chemical based solutions. I'd go as far as saying we use to many chemicals on our skin and body. The trick is to strip them away and perform basic techniques once or twice a week.

To answer your question about blackheads and skin in general. Some people have oily skin and others have dry skin. Its just a matter of doing the right thing for your skin type. A little research will help figure out what each skin type likes and doesnt like. Its not a single solution for everyone.

Answer 5

Blackheads are a mixture of sebum, blood and lymph fluid. These things cause the pores to harden and block the exit. The color is a mixture of these things.

Use a facial cleanser on your face, not soap, and use salycilic acid which is in some products.

These are not caused by dirt on your face, it's internal. When your system stops producing so much oil, it will clear up.

White heads are when the mixture becomes pus and the mixture is trying to force its way out.

Careful exposure to the sun helps, but you don't want melanoma in later years so not too much. Good luck, it will go away.

Answer 6

Very simple, Black people have white heads and white people have black heads

Answer 7

You get a black head when dirt penetrates the surface of your skin and discolors the clotted oil in your pores.

A white head is a pimple (oil from your sebacous gland, and bacteria [pus]) from a pore that is raised above the surface of the skin.
