"This might be the reason why: African and Afro-Caribbean hair has a flattened-oval hair shaft, while mixed race and Caucasian hair has a more circular hair shaft. The head lice indigenous to Caucasian hair are not adapted to the flattened-oval hair shaft, so the lice are not able to take up home as effectively in African or Afro-Caribbean hair. So now we have varieties of!!!!!!
I think it's saying lice come from Caucasian hair and don't like Afro-Caribbean hair. "No, it looks like she's saying we have our own species and knowing Africa's propensity for bugs she's probably right! | |||
