Real Hair Answers will dispel the myths about hair, hairstyles, and hairstylists and reveal the truth about hair—particularly about your own hair and why it is so hard to find a well-trained stylist.

Myth #1: All Black/African American hair is strong.

Truth: Every race has many different hair types, not just one. Some black people have strong hair, but the truth is that the majority do not.

Myth #2: Hairstylists are trained at beauty school.

Truth: Most hairstylists have virtually no training in school. The school is a license program that is designed to teach health and safety, not hair.
