Hair Loss InformationHair Count Across Different Races – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

I have a question about the number of hairs a race typically has. Since Caucasians typically have 100K as opposed to Africans who have 60K, is African hair, strand per stand, literally thicker, or something? Because at least I usually see Africans and notice Caucasians have almost twice as much density on their head.

Hair thickness has nothing to do with hair density. You find fine, medium, and coarse hair in all races. African hair mats together and gives the illusion of more fullness.

  1. D’Oh stupid typo on me!
    I asked this question a while back and see I left out a crucial part of the sentence, but the good doctor answered correctly anyway.
    I meant to say: “Because at least I DON’T usually see Africans and notice Caucasians have almost twice as much density on their head.”
    Thanks for the answer anyway.
