No. There is no such thing as African-American. A person can not be on two continents at once. People of negroid descent have the same chemicals in cells that make up hair as people of other hues of skin. The kink or curl of hair is determined by the number of sulfur bonds in the chains of proteins which make up the individual hairs. Water alone will not damage hair if it is a neutral pH. The acidity or alkalinity of water or solutions may alter and damage hair. The activity of swimming alone will not. Chlorine and other chemicals in water in a public pool may react with dyes and other color agents to cause a change in color. It is unlikely that these reactions will be significant enough to damage the hair itself.

I guess the real question is, why wouldn't they have them? So yes, the young women on the school swim team have swimming caps, and I really don't think it matters what type of person you are, male, female, white, black, etc. the more hair you have the more difficult it might be to get it tucked under a cap.

Why did they create the swimming cap?
To decrease resistence while competing in a swim race. If you think about it... Hair slows the swimmers down by a lot. Your hair is a big head of..... hair.... and your swimming, water gets trapped all through your hair slowing you down quite a bit. It's much harder for people with long hair to swim with no swim cap. Even though your hair will still get wet, it decreases the resistance while swimming.
