I love how the study indicated coconut oil as being better pre-wash. Just using one ethnicity (indian) hair is one flaw here. Love the article!

I don't think it's much of a flaw. Hair is hair. the differences are trivial. They might have used Remy hair because it's the most easily obtained unprocessed long hair available.

I also note that the tests done on clients with hair on their heads did not mention that they were selected because they were south asian with unproccessed hair. That's where I see a flaw in the reporting.

Yes, I saw this too, but then I assumed they covered that when they said all the hair used was Indian. :shrug:
I think different texture and thickness of the strands would make a difference. (Not talking about the labels curly or straight.) Leaves room for more research! :)

See pages 3 and 4 of the pdf. They do specify.


"Samples of straight, curly, wavy and permed hair of Indian origin were used in this work. ...


Bleached hair was prepared by using a bleaching kit containing 30 vol. hydrogen ..."

Yes but we were talking about the subjects' half-heads of hair they experimented on right? I saw that they did not specify whether those subejects were of Indian origin, so I just assumed the subjects were included in the above quote that mentions the samples of hair.
