Jim gave the greater sacrifice because Della's hair can grow back. In maybe less than a year, Della's hair can grow out to the point where she can wear the combs in her hair. Jim cannot simply replace his watch unless he bought it back, and he did not make very much a week, as said here; "...the income was shrunk to $20 a week..." (page 360) Although Della's hair was very important to her looks, and confidence, as this quote backs up, "Della's beautiful hair fell about her rippling and shining like a cascade of brown waters" (page 351), one might assume Jim's watch was of more value and more important. Even though Della felt absolutely awful about cutting her hair off for a gift Jim couldn't use, her hair could grow back. Jim would have to
African American women's health, hair politics, and physical activities. Studies show that African American women tend to pay more attention to their hair instead of their health issues. Researches came up with a theoretical argument to figure out why hair matter for some women. They discover that hair presents a barrier to exercise in that the time and economic restrictions involved in maintaining a hairstyle post exercise for physical activity as prohibitive. This study provides some perception about the relationship between hair and health for African American women and suggests that extra attention is justified to address views about beauty ideals and hairstyles as a barrier to exercise (Versey, 2014, p. 2015)
It was one week from Della's 30th birthday and Jim didn't have enough money to
3 different samples of hair was extracted from 3 suspects of the murder and were compared to a hair left at the crime scene of Mr Mowder (Evidence Hair).

Suspect A’s hair sample was also blonde with slight shades of light brown. It’s width was thin with no presence of medulla. Suspect B’s hair was Dark Brown with a shading of light brown. The hair was thick and had the presence of medulla. Suspect C’s hair was Blonde like Suspect A’s but had a shading of light grey. It was also thin like suspect’s A and had no presence of medulla.

At the scene of the crime a hair was found near Anna Garcia. After viewing and testing the hair, we concluded that the hair belonged to Erica. The unknown hair had the exact same thickness and color of Erica’s hair. The hair at the crime scene had a similar cuticle to Erica’s. Both Erica’s hair and the one at the crime scene had the same cortex as well. We believe that Erica’s hair was brought to the crime scene on a piece of clothing by Alex Garcia(Anna’s ex-husband). When Alex came to murder Anna a hair of Erica’s must have fallen off when Alex was doing his deed.
Jim and Della perform an act of selfless love by their willingness to give something that held great value to them in order to get special presents for each other on Christmas. They do all of this out of love for the other. However, you will see that these gives prove to end up having no use in the end but that is not the main point. The main point is that although this ironic situation occurs, they both find joy in the thought that they would do this for each other. This love that they have for each other is far greater value than any gift that could be given. Jim doesn’t overreact or get angry with this conclusion.
“Black Hair” by Gary Soto is a three stanza, free verse poem that observes the life of a young Mexican boy and his admiration for Hector Moreno, a Mexican baseball figure. The speaker is immediately identified as the young boy as he starts to reminisce about when he was eight years old. The boy goes on to talk about how he thought of himself at this age, as well as Hector and his parents. He would watch the baseball games and look up to Hector, copying him, and addressing how this win for Hector would be a win for him and all the “brown people”. The audience isn’t addressed as a literal part of the poem, so we can imagine it from a bird’s eye point of view.
The fiber and hair evidence collected from the bodies of the murder victims resulted in the conviction of Wayne Williams in 1982 (CNN, 2010). Investigations located green carpet fibers that displayed a specific pattern, red carpet fibers, yellow fibers, dog hair, as well as human hair on the different bodies from 1979 until 1981. This collection of evidence was compared to the carpet fibers from the home where Wayne Williams lived as well as the vehicle he drove. A sample of hair was also taken from his dog and compared to those found on the bodies. A yellow blanket was found under the bed of Wayne Williams, a sample of those fibers was also taken.

Trichology is the study of hair. Interestingly, this study dates back to mid-1800s. However, hair analysis in forensic science began in 1930. During which time, a forensic scientist by the name of Edmond Locard introduced the Locard Exchange Principal. This principal hinges on the fact that any time there is contact between two surfaces an exchange of material will take place. (Oien, 2009) In this paper, I will prove how Forensic Hair Analysis and Forensic Hair comparison and studies if properly performed and correctly interpreted hair analysis meets all the scientific method standards.
Everyone knows that a woman's hair is her crowning glory and hair is such a focal point of Americanah. Every character introduced to the reader in the Americanah is initially described by their hair and predominately defined by it. It's as if Adichie wanted to highlight how people are perceived and distinguished just by the way that they wear their hair. Wendy Cooper, author of Hair: Sex, Society, Symbolism argues that “skin and hair respectively are the two most important physical attributes for racial classification.” She notes that “hair not only varies in terms of types and texture among different races but also within race categories.” For a black woman, her hair is so intricately weaved into her culture and her self esteem that when

Della is willing to cut her gorgeous and flowy hair so that she can afford a Christmas present for her husband Jim. Della’s hair is admired by everyone, but she would have felt guilty if she did not get Jim a present. When Jim is standing before Della and her shortened hair, she gives him a fob chain. Also, Della explains to him that she, “couldn’t have lived through Christmas without giving [him] a present” (Henry 264). Della has an altruistic disposition whereas Madame Loisel has a selfish and greedy personality.
After flipping off the switch to my cheap, red Revlon hair dryer, I took one glance in the mirror and noticed my hair looked exactly as expected: terrible. My dark brown curls were separated, flattened, and all the volume had been suctioned out. My once-voluptuous locks were now dry and brittle noodles. I have never had great experiences with hair dryers. Honestly, how could I? I have fine, curly hair that frizzes at the very touch of my fingers. Some days it looks like a rat’s nest, other days it looks like five rat’s nests all got into a fight over whose nest could look the dirtiest. So let me explain to you the extent of a mess in which I deal with on the daily.
