Description | Title: Ethnic Hair Styles: A Historical Overview Pamela Allen, MD Objectives: - Explain the history of ethnic hairstyles
- Illustrate the unique hair grooming practices of ethnic hair
- Compare the phenotypic difference of hair follicles between racial groups
Practice Gap: Dermatologists have limited understanding of the historical background into the journey of ethnic hair styles, hair care practices, and the follicular phenotypic differences between racial groups. At the end of this presentation, dermatologists will gain a better understanding, respect, and develop cultural humility as they encounter patients with various ethnic hair styles and hair/scalp issues.
