@ABundles name those other ethnicities. and the ones you will name will be sub-races of the negroid race

[ABundles]

Thanks for helping set the record about Madam Walker & the fact that she did not invent the hot comb. Marcel Grateau developed metal hair care implements during the 1870s when Walker was a child. Many other people invented their own versions. Black people are not the only ones w/ kinky, super curly hair. Curling irons were used by women of other ethnicities just as they are now.

@godschildyes sad she invented it wow 

[godschildyes]

@steflova2 It was originally made to straighten wool which was used in their (french) wigs and also for curly hair. He then marketed it to the black people in France and it's popularity grew. Madam Walker invented the Vegetable Shampoos and Hair Growth Tonics and Medicinal Hair Salves etc. As a black woman, I too was shocked to find that she was not the inventor of the pressing comb. But her granddaughter attests to it and so does the information given through public records.

@godschildyes interesting. how did a frenchman invent a straightening comb? Was it to straighten the hair of black people ?

[godschildyes]

Her grand daughter A'Leila Bundles says that she did not invent the straightening comb. She only used them in her salon. A Frenchman invented it. It is easy to find if you will look it up on the internet.
