Head of the Department of Dermatology at Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, Professor Eli Sprecher led an international group of scientists for seven years on a study that sought to discover why baldness is fairly common among black women. The team succeeded in identifying the gene responsible.
Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia [CCCA], which causes loss of hair, was thought to be the result of aggressive hair manipulation – yet now a genetic cause was found as well – leading to the potential development of a possible cure.
The study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, found that a malfunction in protein PADI3 causes CCCA.
Sprecher warned in an interview with Maariv on Thursday that extensive pulling of the hair and attempts to straighten it may be related to hair loss for those who carry the genetic defect.
“Finding the genetic defect that causes CCCA might bring us closer to finding a cure,” he said.

Finally. What a burden off my mind.
@ANONYMOUS, IS THAT YOU, MAXINE??
Good! I was sick and tired of seeing hair weaves flying around at Chuck E. Cheese.
Now they can stop culturally appropriating caucasians’ hair.
Who in their right mind willingly goes to Chuck E Sleaze? I haven’t been there since my kids were little back in the late 80’s and early 90’s. Tony’s cardboard pizza from the grocery store is better than their lousy pizza. It was a trap for guilty parents to take their spoiled kids to so they supposedly could have fun. And Dave and Buster’s is just Chuck E Sleaze for millennials from what I’ve seen on their commercials.
News reporters are currently fanning out all over Israel in an attempt to find an actual Black Israeli woman who can give her opinion of this hair-raising story.
And ain’t that a kick in their size
size 6x pants for the BDS bunch
who can’t use it without eating
a whole lotta crow.
I always thought the Wookies just had mange.
Corrine Brown was wearing a wig all that time? (Go Gay-tah!)
Corrine Brown still wears that wig in prison. She’s been caught twice now using it to smuggling chicken gizzards into the facility.

How dare they suggest that any behavior on the part of black women contributed in any way to their baldness! And then to suggest that there are genetic components makes it worse. The reason black women suffer from baldness is because systemic racism and white oppression. There can be no other reason or cause.
No problem there. Just get a James Brown rug……
So they get new hair while my bald head gets blamed for white privilege, called racist and prepares to lose money for reparations? 🤔
Wig hats and weaves are most black woman’s addiction. Don’t think for one minute a God given miracle is going to stop them from culturally appropriating whites. Hypocrisy is a force they can’t resist.
I LOVE THESE ISRAELIS — WHAT CAN’T THEY DO ??
NEXT ON THE AGENDA — A CURE FOR INCURABLE LIBERALISM !!
Why?
Is that the new Breck Girl?
That’s unbeweaveable.
Weaves, weaves, it’s not fair
Give those horses back their hair.
I guess Black Heads do matter.
Dear Israel: It doesn’t matter what you do, the blacks in America will always hate the Jews. I’ve never understood the passion my Jewish friends show towards the blacks in America given the um-abashed hatred from their “allies”. But I guess it’s as my grandfather used to say: “The Jewish folks in the US work like Presbyterians, but vote like Puerto Ricans”.
Terrible news for the wig hat sellers. . . . Well, maybe not. Even if blacks had flowing mountains of natural hair, they would still be hating it and trying to look Caucasian.
Now they can start working on the bitchy attitude….
