I know that guys from Japan, China or Korea don’t easily get thick facial hair (as in: having a literal beard) or it’ll take longer to grow in comparison to Euro-Western men for some reason even if both groups didn’t shave, what I mean is in a week: the American guy is starting to grow a beard while the Japanese guy hasn’t gotten it yet despite both waiting 7 days unshaven.
Like this: both guys work for the same corporation where suits are required & must be presented with decorum, the Japanese guy hasn’t shaven for that long but still looks clean while the American guy shaved yesterday before work as the beard has grown, so basically the American guy has to shave frequently while the Japanese guy doesn’t use the razor that much.
It’s the same thing with SE Asian (Thai, Vietnamese, Filipino, Indonesians) guys since it’s not common for them to heave beards within a week on the same extent as European & Western men. Rather it only displays a small patch of facial hair instead of a full beard if left unshaven, it grows at a slower pace for them while its rapid for both Western & European guys.
They also have funky other differences like dry ear wax, non-stinky sweat, they turn bright red when drinking alcohol and a lot of them have blue-ish birthmarks.
It’s fascinating what genes can do! Just like sneezing when looking at a bright light or having the coriander=soap gene.
its deficiency alcohol dehydrogenase2 in asian, that gives the red flushing, not all asians apparently have this though. also lactose intolerance is more common too.
I got ‘lucky’ and the tiny bit of my DNA attributed to my Neanderthal ancestors is responsible for my awful skin. I have, apparently, incurable dandruff that’s spread to my ears and face. It’s a real pain. Unless I am constantly (and I mean that) washing my face and scalp, it never goes away. Dealt with it all my life.
My friend, in all likelihood that is not dandruff, it is probably psoriasis provoked/worsened by something environmental or dietary.
Dandruff arises from a fungal infection.
Tell that to the antifungal shampoo and face wash I was prescribed that did nothing to help.
That supports my point, it’s not dandruff.
If it were dandruff the antifungal would have an effect.
In all likelihood you have psoriasis (which I also have so I’m not stupid, I know it’s an incurable autoimmune disorder) provoked to bloom by something in your diet.
If there’s any kind of medication, I’ve tried it. Ask my GP and my ENT doctors.
I feel like you haven’t listened to a word I’ve said.
I feel like you haven’t READ a single one of mine.
You can tell I’m reading yours because I’m responding appropriately, and you’re just continuing to say the same thing over and over again to me which means I can tell you’re not listening. It’s fine, enjoy your psoriasis bud
Otezla pills? Tremfya injection?
some tibetians have denisovan genes too.
Me too! A couple of drops of lavender oil in a very neutral ungreasy moisturiser works wonders for me for my face, and tea tree oil shampoo is the best thing I’ve found for my scalp.
Don’t use shampoo. Shampoo is designed to strip away all natural oils and moisture and sell you more products to deal with it.
Johnny Harris on shampoo.
I tried some a few months ago and it’s the only thing that’s ever worked for my scalp, but it does nothing for my face or ears. I’ll have to try your solution.
Not exactly. Those with the mutation have fewer apocrine sweat glands which bacteria that make smells tend to like. The other sweat still smells like sweat.
Thank you for the clarification! That’s one of the few desirable mutations 😓
