Different stages of hairs from different ethnicities

  1. Here I wanted to learn more about the different compositions of my friends' hair and I’s and how it differed depending on various factors. For example, I wanted to know if it differed depending on how many days since it had been washed, our ethnicities, the coarseness of our hair, as well as the color. Was there a difference between hair still attached to the scalp and hair that had fallen off a few days ago? Does this vary with our sleeping habits? The findings showed that depending on how many days we had washed it, the shine and build up of small conglomerations on the hair close up would look different. Furthermore, with hair that was washed later it could be seen that there seems to be more build up on the day with longer days without wash. The hair that had fallen off was thinner and had more divisions within it than the attached hair as well. I was unable to get a good enough picture showing the build up but I did get a picture of the hairs and the coarseness of the two. Overall, I can see that all these have an effect on the hair composition and wellness.
