I'm Palestinian, so that means I'm middle eastern, but I have afro hair, I was told my great great great grandmother was African, so I got it from her.. I find it very interesting, and I am blessed, but the problem is that here in Jordan (where I live) it's very hard someone who can deal with my hair, I just wish I still live in America it was much easier... but thank you for your video!! ♡♡♡♡ new sub!

Somalis, nor horners in general, were originally Arab... they literally represent some of the earliest examples of anatomically modern humans in Africa. Their(horners) elongated phenotype predate the elongated phenotype in the Middle East. These features could be observed in the North kenyan Capsian fossils and around the time these fossils were dated to(paleolithic) human fossils in the middle east actually had a TROPICAL African phenotype. So, if there's any case to be made about admixture, it would be the horn into the middle east, not the other way around BUT it needs to be pointed out that it's most likely a case of convergent evolution- when two distinct populations develop similar physical features due to living in similar environments while not being necessarily closely related. Admixture cannot be used to explain all non-tropical features in Africans especially when HALF the continent is arid. Somalis are actually very homozygous(non-mixed) when compared to Ethiopians but studies show they display MORE hair texture diversity meaning that diversity is native to the population. Other African groups that display looser textures with little to no admixture are the fulani who only display European DNA markers at a maximum of 8% in a few individuals but still display a high occurrence of loose hair textures. The fulani and tutsi(who have no European admixture) also display the elongated features that horners do. So in short, what you just said is ignorance rooted in racist pseudo-science from centuries past.

I'm shocked at the negative comments that are coming from the photos provided from scientific studies on different hair types. There should be no shame in admitting that your hair is more fragile than other hair types - it doesn't make you "less than" & prove that black hair is on the bottom of the totem pole. This just shows us that due to our different hair structure, we have to be more cautious how we handle our hair to get optimal hair growth retention. I'll be the first to admit that my ends split way faster than most, my hair strands are very fine and super coiled and tend to get dry easily. Its because of the shape of the strand. I'd rather be equipped with the knowledge to combat future breakage than get defensive online and bash someone for making an informative video on what the scientific studies have said about black hair.

I am never surprised when black hair is demonized. I am glad when they talk about our hair in that manner, it brings a desire to fix what is considered wrong with our hair. They create our shampoo, our conditioners and our greases and oils, that helps keep our hair that way. Because we are blessed with variety of hair coils and textures we have to find what works best for our hair. Using naturally made products helps our hair gain moisture and grow. Stop using all these chemicals, wearing false hair and use things that the Africans use to grow their hair. The black hair industry is a billion dollar industry but we are not the ones with the billion dollars yet they demonize our hair. Dont understand it.

I get salty about studies on black people hair because they all seem to demean our hair type(s). I did take on somewhat of negative feeling in the beginning of this video with pics of black hair being extra knotted and the pics of the extra split ends verses the other types of hair being all nice and less affected. Pics like that some white people grab hold and continue to believe that black hair is nasty, untameable, not worth having, nor learning to become hair stylist for black hair. My words are no exaggeration I've heard it all from whites, not all whites think this. This study maybe factual but my emotions (to be honest) block some of these black studies due to negative projections they mainly chose to focus on and not show the positive sides of black hair. I did learn why our hair is tightly curled and that it does shine. thanks for this video.

I'm sure plenty of derogatory statements have been made about Asian hair. Their hair requires a lot of careful manipulation in order to change color and texture. And then maintaining its health. Hair Breakage in Patients of African Descent: Role of Dermoscopy "Global population forecasts from the US Central Intelligence Agency indicate that of the 1.5 billion people that the world is predicted to gain by 2020, 16% will be from Africa [4]. In light of this, and taking into account the current and predicted changes in global demographics, it is essential for clinicians to be familiar with hair and scalp disorders of people of African descent [5]. Hair and scalp disorders are a significant problem in African descent women. One of the reasons is that African hair is more fragile, has less tensile strength and reaches its breaking point earlier than the hair of other racial groups [6,7]."

I’m not sure who the “scientist” were who did this study or if the team included African scientists but this doesn’t cover the most IMPORTANT aspects of African hair. Coiled African hair acts as both an evaporator coil and condensing coil for the African. Air conditioning units have 2 types of coils: Evaporator Coils and Condensing Coils. Evaporator coils turn refrigerant liquid into gas as it absorbs heat from the inside air and removes moisture from the air and lets it drain out to a condenser pan. Condensing Coils release heat into the atmosphere with the aid of an exhaust fan. Coiled African hair absorbs heat from the air while keeping the hair is chilled at the root by the excreting sweat. This is why coiled African hair often appears “dry”. However, coiled African hair also absorbs moisture from the air just like evaporator coils. This is why African hair “frizzes up” when it is humid outside. All hair is an extension of the nervous system. All other groups on the planet absorb energy from the earth through their hair endings which point down. Africans hair point up. They absorb cosmic ray energy through their hair.

Appreciate the video. I learned a couple things about our hair that seperates us from other hair types as AA. 1. It's curly from the root. While Asian hair grows from the root straight and Caucasian hair grows out from the root wavy. Our hairs does have natural oils but since oil come from the scalp and our hair comes out the scalp in curls, the oils has a hardware time traveling down the shaft. For that reason always focus on making sure your ends are very moisturized to prevent splits. 2. Our hairs very pourous. Meaning it soaks up moisture easier than other hair types and because its pourous it looses moisture faster. Which explained our spongy like texture and is why we have to rely on conditioning agents more frequently . 3. Our hairs ranges on averages from fine, medium, to coarse. Where as Asian hair is mostly coarse and Caucasian hair mostly fine. This explains why we have difficulty finding products for our natural hair. Just because your sister and mom can use a product and get amazing results doesn't mean you can. She may have super coarse strands and your might be very fine. 4. As far a density. We have medium density. While Asians have the lowest density. and Caucasian have the highest.

Hey! Thanks for sharing! I'm not sure about the porosity: chemically untreated and undamaged Afro hair should not be porous as the cuticles have not been compromised. As a general rule, however, as hair ages it becomes more porous due to daily wear and tear.

the porosity varies from person to person and cuticles in natural hair can be "compromised". I have a few natural heads with porous hair that we have to treat in order to fill in the "Nicks" you rock girl!

When speaking of hair as being "course" or "fine" it is in reference to the thickness of the individual strand, not the texture (how it feels to the touch). Course hairs are thicker, and fine hairs are thinner. Straight hair that appears smooth can have course (thick) individual strands, or fine (thin) individual strands. Just as afro or tightly coiled hair can have fine (thin)) individual strands, or course ( thick) individual strands. 😊

+Naturally High You should have titled it..When a white scientist or incredible source says it, It is true..To show just how gullible and knowledge you are, the article stated wooly hair was a word created in the 1700. Yet you actually believed a fallacious claim so laughable. Wooly hair is referred to divinely all thru out history and biblically in the old testament to describe Negroes, Moors/ Hebrew Israelites those times. Also it is wooly hair that is made in the original image of God and nature to be one with nature/The sub. So you believe a people illsuited not only by skin and rebuked by nature by virtue of being a genetic recessive defect of the original hueman phenotype but then recite blasphemous claims with white His-Story. The same murderous, sociopathic, stealing ppl who try to convince their ego that it is them who are original and more suited on this planet. You must wake up queen.

We are pioneers of trends and always creating new ones. I guess we get mad because you hate on everything we do until you see we dont care and than everybody follows. I just seen a video of a girl being suspended for wearing her afro to school because it was a "distraction." And I know most bw can relate. Damned if we do or dont. Wear a afro and they call you pro-black, unkept, unemployable. Wear it straight and they say you hate your afro but you assimilate enough to fit in. smh. We look good with red hair, brown, blonde, black, purple hair. Whether we have braids, straihht pocahauntas hair, dreads, afros etc. And we will continue to do whatever we want with our body's while they try to find out why and sit back watch and criticize and admire.

I bet you do love not having no interest in the discussion of hair, because you don't have any, their a big difference in hair and fur, allow me to elaborate, hair is curly, stand up, alive, it is actually a human intenna, and people who posess this hair sense the Most High presents, knowing the Most High is alive and well in this temporary life, on the flip side you have human that grows fur equivalent to a collie dog, straight, lymph another word for dead, meaning the Most High simply cut you off for a positive life in eternity, or you are not understanding there is a temporary life and in a temporary life, you death on earth is also temporary, now eternity is the second life, when the Most High made man he is not to die permanently, is the reason he had the Messiah to come and it is already proof he can raise you from the dead, isn't that ironic, however in these last days, we have a group of people, doing everything the Most High don't stand for, and have broken every law the Most High has written for the human being to obey in his world, However they believe in abusing the humble human, taking all of whoever asset for themselves, even if they have to murder for it, and trust me when they are murdering for it, they are literally raping, women, men and children, for gain in a temporary life, the scripture states, what good is it to gain the world and lose your own soul, in the Most High world, you see there is no repentance for these people, and they are marked with fur from the scalp of their head and it makes sense you don't believe it, because your intenna is dead

That's interesting to know how the angle/degree of the hair shaft makes a difference. When I look at my hair closely, I can actually tell its kind of flattened. It's almost like a tiny ribbon. Flat & wider. It curls best when I wash it, oil it root to tip, & let it dry hanging over my pillow at night. Over the last ten years I've used a Babyliss iron religiously, & it's actually changed my texture. Like it doesn't curl naturally as well as before. It is easier to straighten now...but it almost looks thinner

That is true. Castor oil is a sealant so it helps to lock in moisture. It also reduces friction between strands, preventing knotting and minimising wear and tear.

I agree! I use oils and conditioners on my ends mainly. My scalp responds negatively to being covered with oils.

That wig looks so real! Great job summarizing and presenting the information. I read years ago that in hot and dry climates (like certain parts of Africa), coily hair keeps the head cool by growing up instead of down and the texture allows air to get to the scalp. Not sure where I read this as it was a long time ago. But it makes me wonder maybe that's the reason coily hair is so prone to breakage. We like long hair for aesthetic reasons, but longer hair would not provide any kind of evolutionary advantage. I'm not on a growth journey but I wouldn't mind my hair being longer. But when I think about all the work that goes into retaining length I ask myself is it really worth it to fight so hard against nature?

Hi there! Yay! That's good to hear, thanks. Thank you. That's an evolutionary theory about Afro hair, yes! I wouldn't consider growing long hair 'fighting against nature'. That's akin to saying that because of biology, we should only live in hot climates. Not everything we do to our bodies is to give ourselves an evolutionary advantage. Some of us wax, shave, and style our hair etc. for aesthetic or grooming purposes. Our hair is not naturally greasy or straight and does break easily but with love and care it can grow, provided you want it to!

I am pretty sure that the term wooly was used in the Bible to describe Jesus' hair. Revelation 1:14 The hair on his head was white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire.

Sarah B ....black people have white hair? I mean you're insinuating Jesus was subsaharan African with comment were you? That wouldn't make much sense to assume since most of us have black hair.

I prefer not to follow the studies of Caucasians, not all but many are not honest with their facts. Who is to say, what they write is true? They have altered different stories, facts and other people's history. The Writers study was meant to praise caucasus people and it did not seem honest. I am talking about the writer's study not the video.

I mentioned Carolus Linneus to show that the founder of taxonomy was racist. The other studies are much more recent and based on real observations made under the modern scientific method. Not all the scientists are white! X

You are missing the point, the point is you took points from a white male and I am challenging you, to step outside of the Norm and state facts that are created by someone other than white. Yes, I know not all scientists are white but you posted a picture of a white man and did not post any other pictures of people of color. I want variety. Just a suggestion. You should, really review your video before posting them because they're plenty of facts, that you left out.
