When it comes to hair, the world is not divided by colour or ethnicity but by hair texture! Afro hair and mixed race hair are two such fine examples and even then, there are sub-genres in each. There are various types of waves, coils, thickness of the hair strand and porosity (how much moisture the hair can absorb) that all needs to be taken into consideration when it comes to hair maintenance.
When it comes to choosing products for mixed race hair, it is a minefield. Generally, Afro hair is made up of one percent moisture whilst Caucasian hair is three percent. Mixed race hair falls somewhere in the middle.
Whilst afro products commonly deals with dry hair and scalp problems, Caucasian haircare products battles with oiliness.
Neither are suitable for mixed race hair as afro products are typically too heavy, leaving the hair greasy or flat whilst products for white people can be drying, stripping the hair of natural oils.
Whilst there are now numerous haircare ranges specifically aimed at mixed race people, there is not one miracle product that fits all. You need to experiment and see what works for you and maintain a strict haircare regime for the best results.
