We’ve been through this countless times on this site. Not everyone, regardless of race, washes their hair every day. It is a matter of need and personal hygiene, not race. If you need to wash your hair, wash it. If you have poor hygiene, you don’t wash it. Race is not an issue. And you do know genetics are a huge factor in hair growth, don’t you? I, too, have longer hair, and I wash it once a week. If I were to wash my hair more than once a week, it would be completely dried out and damaged. Not only that, but I would be dog sick and always running late because my hair is very thick and takes forever to wash and air dry, so not only is washing it once a week the best for my hair, it is also convenient. Any hairstylist will tell you hair only needs to be washed when it is dirty. Excessive hair washing leads to damage, breakage and oil buildup. I don’t know if you get out much, but you will see many women of different races with short hair. My black grandmother used to sit on her hair and chooses to keep it cut short, as does my mother. As far as shaving goes, I shave. I don’t pay attention to who shaves and who doesn’t and what race they are, but again, it’s a matter of choice and personal hygiene. Julia Roberts and Paula Cole have been known to sport underarm hair, and they’re certainly not black. So, to get to the point, it is a matter of choice, personal hygiene and need–not race. What works for you may not work for others.
