African-Americans and Head Lice. Now, lice are not racist, so they do not choose to breed only in the hair of Caucasians and not in that of the African-Americans. Thus, the answer to your question is, Yes, they can.But, the chances of Caucasians, Asians, or even Hispanics getting lice is far more than that of the African-Americans.ead lice are contagious and they can spread by various means, such as towels, pillow covers, or sometimes even by using the comb of an infected person. They usually occur in children from the age group of 3 to 12 years and it's specially the girls who have this problem because of their long hair.
Pubic lice usually are found in the genital area on pubic hair; but they may occasionally be found on other coarse body hair, such as hair on the legs, armpits, mustache, beard, eyebrows, or eyelashes. Pubic lice on the eyebrows or eyelashes of children may be a sign of sexual exposure or abuse. common misconception is that pubic lice are spread easily by sitting on a toilet seat. This would be extremely rare because lice cannot live long away from a warm human body and they do not have feet designed to hold onto or walk on smooth surfaces such as toilet seats.
