I googled the word "nappy/kinky" hair and the result was a page from Wikipedia Encyclopedia. It referred to "nappy/kinky" hair as Afro-textured hair. As well, hair that has not been altered by hot combs, flat irons, or chemicals. It stated that each strand of this hair type grows in a tiny spring-like, helix shape. The overall effect is such that Afro-textured hair appears and feels denser than its straight counterparts. Furthermore, its unique shape additionally renders it very prone to breakage when combed or brushed. With regards to structure, all human hair types have the same basic chemical composition in terms of Keratin Protein content. However, this hair type is most difficult to categorize due to the many different variations it has from person to person. Wow! Is it safe to say that Afro-textured hair with its own unique qualities and possibilities of beauty is just as beautiful as its straighter counterparts?
