EGYPT
Most Egyptians life and lifestyle have changed little for hundreds of years. 20th century commercialism made impressions in the form of brand-name soda pop, Levis and TV.

In the time of the Egyptians 4000 to 300 B.C. not only women but also men wore wigs. Page-boy like hairstyles in block form together with small braids was the look of this era. Egyptian hairstyles and our hairstyles today have many things in common. Like modern hairstyles Egyptian hairstyles varied with age, gender and social status.

ABOUT HAIR

Each strand consists of three layers: cuticle, cortex and medulla.
The cuticle is the top layer of hair. Like the skin, it is made up of a protein called keratin. It is transparent but very strong. It is layered fish-like scales and helps the cuticle protect the next layer. These scales can have as many as 7 overlapping strata, or as few as 3, bound together with a putty like substance. The cuticle reflects light, giving the hair its luster. If the cuticle is damaged, hair is dull and lacks luster.
The cortex is the thickest part of the hair strands and makes up more than 75% of the hair, providing strength and elasticity.
