Is it possible to implant white people's hair into a black woman's skull?

Question

Black people don't have the same hair as white people

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Hair transplant from a white person to a black person is not possible or vice versa.  You can only transplant hairs with your own hair.  The only exception is between identical twins who share the same genetic makeup.

Shayne Webb, MD · Answer

No.  The fact that it is between a different race is not relevant.  Only twin to twin is possibleBest wishes.

Ryan Welter, MD · Answer

Unfortunately, hair can only be transplanted from the same person, not person to person.  So, it would be impossible to transplant caucasian hair to an african scalp.  The grafts would be rejected.

Michael Meshkin, MD - Account Suspended · Answer

Hair transplant from one person to another person is not done, because the hair is an organ and when transplanted can be rejected. It is not worth the risks that are involved.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Hair transplants between people will fail because hair is an organ and organ hair transplants between people is not done today because of rejection of the hair transplant.
