Posted: 21 Mar 2010 06:58 PM PDT

It tends to be dry and brittle, as well, because of the slow distribution of oils along the hair shaft. For this reason, many people with African-American hair regularly oil their hair. Others opt for a more longer-lasting solution: permanent wave, also known as perm, which uses either chemicals or heat to treat hair to achieve straight-looking hair.
