Why is black peoples hair different and difficult?
user
Black peoples hair is different and can be difficult for a number of reasons. The texture of black hair is much coarser than other races due to its tighter curl pattern and reduced elasticity. This makes it more prone to dryness, damage, and braiding/straightening techniques that can cause breakage. Moreover, many commercially available products such as shampoos and conditioners often do not provide the same results for black hair as they would for other racial groups. Black people therefore tend to use natural alternatives or rely on word-of-mouth recommendations for suitable products.

Black people's hair is different and more difficult because the hair is much harder to style and control due to its texture, curl pattern, and density. African-American hair has a combination of loose spiral curls which make it naturally voluminous as well as very fragile, making it prone to breakage when not handled with care. Additionally, the scalp produces less sebum oil which creates a lack of definition in cuts and styles. Therefore, achieving a polished look with black hair can be tricky but with the right styling products and techniques it is possible to achieve an eye-catching look.
