The Caucasians hair has many different textures and colours.  There are many different lengths and styles.  Many dye or high-light their hair. Many styling products are also used on their hair.

Colour

The color of hair is determined largely by the amount and distribution of a brown-black pigment called melanin.  Hair also contains a yellow-red pigment that is most visible in people whose hair has little melanin.  Most people’s hair gradually becomes gray or white, as they grow older, because pigment no longer forms.

Texture

The texture of hair depends largely on the shape of the hair, which can be seen in cross section under a microscope.  Straight hairs have a round shape, and wavy and curly hairs are flat.  The flattest hairs are the waviest or the curliest.
