We’ve been through this countless times on this site and not EVERYONE regardless of race washes their hair everyday. 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 then 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 build up. I don’t know if you get out much but you will see many women of all 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.
