They'd get eaten alive if it was by race.

@silvermyth Well that would be the case if you literally labeled the bottles by race. However, natural hair requires different treatment than "regular" hair so that would likely be the proper label to use.

Ethnic hair care, is what it's called

Perhaps there could be labels that just said the type, or showed a picture. Even a little bit of fake hair under it, like the kind they use to label hair dye.

That's so polite... In South Africa we have a range specifically named "Black like me", it's made for black African women (which needs to be specified, because living in Africa we're all African). It's not an insult to be black, coloured, white, Indian, whatever you may be... I don't see why someone can call you white and is fine but calling you black is offensive. Love yourself people.

<brace for impact> wouldn't that actually be the female gender's fault? some marketeer, a long time ago, rationalized that women would go to greater lengths to take care of their aesthetics and hygiene. or would that be projected expectations of beauty that men hold women to?

If that's so, then things marketed to men cost much more than they do than women

It's the marketeer's fault.

Blame capitalism.
