 Besides color,  did you know that hair is very different from one person to the next?

Hair can be used as forensics class evidence because of its unique characteristics.

Students in the ALC Medical Forensics class studied human hair and a variety of animal hairs.

Students found out that animal hair is very different from human hair, and that each animal's hair is very different from the previous animal.

It was interesting to see the difference for these students.
