Generally, the hair contains less water, grows more slowly, and breaks more easily than Caucasian or Asian hair. Remember, however, that plenty of African Americans have hair equally as long & longer than other people; the reason why it looks so short is because of shrinkage.

African-Americans, like anyone else, can straighten their hair.
because our hair has a lack of moisture (oil) so we put grease or oil in our haiR. For you guys oily hair is bad but for us it is a sign of healthy hair. But not all African Americans hair is greasy!

Yes.
It has to be African American to start with.
Yes. My mother is African American and was born with strawberry blond hair which later turned red. Both of her parents (my grandparents) are African American although it's possible my grandfather has 25% European American ancestry. Because she get's a relaxer to straighten her hair, the chemicals turns her hair Auburn. African Americans can have any hair color possible. I have meet more African Americans with blond kinky hair than red. So I'm sure my mom is pretty rare.
Look for products that describe the texture of your hair, not the color of your skin.
You can user a flat iron (there are little ones for short hair & bangs!) or straighten it chemically.

Yes, African Americans can be born with fine hair. Hair texture can vary among individuals within the African American community, ranging from fine to medium to coarse. Fine hair is determined by genetics and can be found in people of all ethnic backgrounds, including African Americans.
