Ribbon hair

Features

Ribbon hair is an abnormality that is caused by the cross-section of the hair. The cross-section of hair can be oval, round or flattened. A flattened cross-section is band hair, a genetic "hair disease".

Ribbon hair cannot be conditioned or shaped, is difficult to style and can hardly be reshaped by a perm. Care and styling suitable for ribbon hair are the only aids that enable the hair to be styled in any way at all.

Beard lichen

Features

Beard lichen (medically known as "tinea barbae", also known as "ringworm of the beard" in specialist literature) is a skin disease caused by fungi that occurs specifically in men. Externally, it is characterized by reddish, scaly, round patches. In highly inflammatory forms, there is also often a fever and peripheral lymph node involvement. Forced forms of beard lichen do not heal themselves, but require antimicrobial treatment.

Beard dandruff is dry dandruff that forms on the facial skin under the beard and settles over the beard hair. White dandruff can often be seen on clothing as a result.
