Elasticity Of Hair

Hair is fibre, and it is a lot like wool. Every hair has three layers. The first and inner most layer of fibres are the medulla. The second layer is the cortex that is around the medulla, and the outer most layer is called the cuticle and it protects the other sensitive layers underneath from breakage or damage. Each hair grows around 0,653cm each month out of the follicles in our heads and it may keep growing for up to 6 years until it falls out and there is space for new hair to grow. The length of your hair depends on how long it grows for. If it only grows for less years than the average growth period of six years, it will be shorter. The thickness of your hair depends on the wideness of you hair

Hair extensions, weave, tracks whatever you want to call it, it is all the same thing to me. I believe in wearing hair extensions they make me feel beautiful. Growing up I always had short hair, I used to wear my natural hair for quite some time throughout middle school in which I experienced bullying. My hair is about shoulder length now but, I choose not to wear hair extentions. I do not like my natural hair, the texture sucks I can go to get my hair straightened and as soon as I leave the salon I have a poof. Many girls wear hair extensions, there are many stereotypes in which women of color are the only girls that where “fake hair”. All of my friends black, white, Hispanic all wear weave. There are many ways to get hair extensions in your

Your hair is one part of your body that shouldn't be taken for granted for any reason. Most of us don't think twice about all the tension braids, hair extensions and other strenuous styles put on our hair's edges. Repeated use of these types of styling practices will ultimately result in permanent damage. The damage that could have been prevented if we would have given more thought to our hair's health rather than just the beauty aspect of styling.

As we discussed in the Get to Know Your Hair section, if your hair’s cuticle is damaged it will not lie flat, so hair will appear dull. The flatter the cuticle scale, the more light is easily reflected off of its surface causing the hair to have natural shine. Damaged hair has less natural shine. Damage to the cuticle will also cause hair to not have natural movement and body, so the hair appears lifeless and stiff.

As history often always repeats itself, the natural hair movement has relaunched itself but this time it is no longer a trend but has become a lifestyle. This is resembling the rebirth of the Black Panther movement, radicalism, patriotism and loyalty to mother Africa. This is taking back our blackness by no longer subscribing to European like ideals of and beauty standards. This movement can be seen as a trend like in the late 60's where after some time many people returned to relaxing their hair but this movement is here to stay. The difference with natural hair this time around is it is not a rebellion as it was in the late 60's, this is an embracement of natural hair. The movement goes beyond simply allowing your hair to grow as is. This

5. What do you feel is the worst thing you can do to your hair, that can damage it greatly?

One of the terms that stood out to me was enculturation or the process of connecting back to your culture of origin. It captured my attention because I have found that over the past few years, I have begun to embrace aspects of my culture that I did not in the past. For example, within the African American community there has been a “natural hair movement” amongst women, this means that I, along with many others, have decided to no longer straighten my hair with chemicals. Although, some may see this as not a huge issue, it is the exact opposite. There have been many girls and women who have been ridiculed because of the texture of their hair and I know from personal experience the impact this treatment can have on the self-esteem of young

Researchers at Purdue University conducted an experiment to determine the effect of heat on human hair. They used a robotic arm and a straightener to straighten eight different hair samples and utilized a microscope with infrared light to observe how the molecules reacted to the heat that was applied to them. What they found was that “straight hair conducts heat better than curly hair” (Romain). This means that straight hair can tolerate higher levels of heat or heat for more amounts of time than curly hair because “heat spreads more easily through the hair fiber, so hair is less likely to be burned” (Romain). This information is useful especially to girls who straighten or curl their hair a lot and wish for it to remain healthy – I know
