[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t get black people’s obsession with washcloths and then lotion. I can’t stand the feeling of lotion on my body. I use a moisturizing soap and don’t need lotion. If I scrubbed myself super hard, I’m sure I would be dry and need lotion everywhere. I exfoliate my face and moisture my face nonstop.

I drink plenty of water and not even my hands or knees are dry. [/quote]

I'll enlighten you- and no offense taken honestly- skin is different for everyone.

Black skin is most often drier and REQUIRES it. It is a normal and necessary part of hygiene- not an obsession.

The reason for the 'white people smell like wet dogs' comments sometimes heard?

Because of hair texture and more elaborate styles, black hair is often not washed as often (nor does it need it). So when black hair gets wet, if it's been a couple weeks or more, it smells doggy. Based on this, we assume white people smell this way also. In reality, most white people wash their hair at least a few times a week if not daily, so their hair smells like shampoo.[/quote]

What?????  Doggy smelling hair?[/quote]
