African hair is curly and looks dense and bushy. But it does not have the same density as
other racial groups simply for the reason that one hair does the work of 10 hairs- the
purpose of hair is to regulate body temperature and additionally, though less
importantly,
is a secondary sexual characteristic in humans.However, today man controls his
environment
so the he latter function weighs heavily on the minds of bald people today when they
seek
hair transplant.
Africans have curly hair for a reason. They are situated alongside the equator and
the
burning heat on a dark scalp is offset by a layer of thick curly gravity defying hair
that
forms an insulation of sorts by retaining relatively cooler air and preventing heat
reaching
the brain. The air is cooler here since evaporating sweat retained in hair zone causes
cooling. You will never see an African full head of hair dripping sweat even in the
warmest
of climates unlike other races where the hair drips sweat.
