Why most black men get skin irritation after shaving... ?

For those people who think this is a racist question, SHUT UP. Most black men get skin irritation from shaving because of the kinky nature of black hair. Black hair has more kinks because it has more hydrogen bonds. This causes black hair to grow in a helical shape (like a slinky). My understanding is sometimes it curls into itself and causes the hard bumps that have no pus in them. The ones with pus are infections.





White hair is more striaght because it has less hydrogen bonds. This causes it to grow out of the hair follicle without any problem.Hence white people who shave get less skinirritation. So good question. Hope I answer it well

So not true. That was so racist if you ask me.

Reply:This is NOT a racist question! Black men do have a problem with razor bumps because they tend to have course, curly hair. As the shaved hair grows back, it curls into the skin instead of coming straight out of the follicle.
Reply:I don’t know if "most" black men get skin irritation after shaving, however, my black friend told me that he gets ingrown hair and/or skin irritation because his beard is naturally very curly. So he does not use blade instead he use electric shaver so it does not shave too close to the skin.
