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.
Hair dye and bleach might kill adult lice and juvenile lice (nymphs) in some cases. The chemicals in at least some brands of hair dye can be toxic to lice. They generally do not kill lice eggs (nits), though, because the chemicals donât penetrate the shells of the eggs.sing hair dye is not a good way to treat lice. Note that having dyed hair does not prevent you from getting lice. People with dyed or bleached hair are just as likely to get lice as those with natural hair color.
