Both fiberglass and asbestos are fibrous materials. In fact, fiberglass was considered a decent substitute for asbestos and commonly used until the health effects became apparent. Like asbestos, fiberglass has heat-resistant qualities that make it good for insulation. Fiberglass doesn’t burn or support combustion. It is inorganic and resistant to most chemicals. Asbestos also has unmatched resistance to heat and combustion. Both are excellent performers in thermal environments. The similarities of fiberglass and asbestos can also be explored in regards to their dangerous health effects. Both asbestos and fiberglass are carcinogenic. According to the EPA, exposure to asbestos can cause lung cancer and mesothelioma. Fiberglass has also been found to be carcinogenic. In fact, fiberglass is sometimes known as the “man-made asbestos” or the “20th century asbestos” for having carcinogenic effects like asbestos. While fiberglass may not be as carcinogenic as asbestos, according to some research studies, both are linked to cancer, which is a dangerous disease. The major difference can also be explored in regards to the type of carcinogen. Fiberglass isn’t classified as a human carcinogen, according to some studies. Asbestos is naturally occurring, while fiberglass is man-made. Asbestos has always been present in some soils and rocks. Fiberglass began being commercially synthesized in the 30s. Both may have thin fibers, but one is man-made. The effects of inhaling or ingesting asbestos can take years to experience. The substance can take years to cause cancer. However, fiberglass irritates instantly when it comes into contact with the eyes and skin. Fiberglass causes inflammation of the skin or irritant contact dermatitis. Inhaling fiberglass also causes breathing difficulties that can be experienced almost instantly. While both asbestos and fiberglass are considered dangerous, asbestos is more dangerous. Asbestos can rest safely once installed and only becomes airborne when damaged or mishandled. The same is true for fiberglass. However, one is more carcinogenic. While the classification of fiberglass as a human carcinogen is debatable, asbestos is a proven human carcinogen. Asbestos has a higher heat resistance and tensile strength properties when compared to fiberglass. Fiberglass is more temperature resistant than polyamide and cotton, but it isn’t comparable to asbestos in this regard. However, it offers better tensile strength and continuous operation under high temperatures than asbestos. However, fiberglass can’t match asbestos in regards to cut resistance. While both are known for heat resistant uses, they have different uses. Fiberglass is non-conductive, making it a perfect choice for electrical insulation. Fiberglass is also popular in making aircraft boats, automobiles, storage tanks, pipes, bathtubs, septic tanks, roofing, and cladding. While asbestos is also a great insulator, fiberglass can’t match some of its applications. For instance, unlike asbestos, fiberglass can’t be used to make friction materials like brake band linings.

It affects a little of your scalp like dryness but it affects your hair most not skin just scalp
Hair is attached to scalp by a blub. This bulb feeds off blood in scalp and is alive like all living cells. This bulb produces a mass of minerals we know as hair. Hair grow from the root under scalp down to ends of hair wherever that may be on yourself.
Yes. The scalp is the base of your hair. You have a dry scalp your hair won't be very healthy. Let's say this, if you have a plant and the dirt is dry. The plant won't be able to get what it needs... water. If the plant is over watered the plant will still be sick. That's like some of us who have oily hair. The dirt is to the plant like our scalps are to our hair. Bad scalp equals bad hair.
Though sulfur can smell bad it can help with scalp conditions like dandriff. Sulfur helps maintain a clear scalp which eventually promotes hair healthy hair growth. Sulfur8- hair products help with scalp care
Hair, like fingernails, is dead.
Auxiliary hair does not contain as much protein to continue growing like scalp hair. This is because auxiliary hair's main purpose is just help prevent too much bacteria from growing on the skin.
Generally, animal hair in plaster is much more easily seen than asbestos fibers. But the only way to know for certain is to have the plaster tested in a qualified laboratory.
Everyday stuff like running your hands through your hair. Your hands are oily and when you run your hands through your hair it rubs off. So when you your hair and you haven't washed it for a while it gets greasy and your scalp itches.
No it doesn't because when you don't wash your hair for a couple days when you sweat or just didn't wash then the oils in your hair will build up and your scalp will actually start to peel like dandruff so actually shampoo conditions your scalp and hair and keeps the right amount of oils in your hair and on your scalp so if you sweat than wash your hair and at least wash your hair at least every other day. If your hair was short it would clean itself (short cut men would wear) but if it is long it won't.
It is when the scalp has no dandruff, is not usually dry, it sometimes gets a little oily but not very often. it also has a good blood supply the the scalp. A person with a "normal" scalp generally will not get any problems like excessive oil in the hair.
