Finding Stuff Out - "Hair" Season 1, Episode 14 (FULL EPISODE)

The Big Question: “Why do we have hair?”
Synopsis: In a search to learn about the origins of hair, Harrison finds out about the cultural implications of different hairstyles - from mohawks to baldness.
My Great Challenge: Harrison’s guest challengers must identify different types of animals from close-ups of their fur.
In the Field: Harrison visits a hairstylist and finds out why our hair turns grey and how amazingly strong it is. He also visits an anthropologist with a big skull collection who explains to him why the gradual loss of our primordial “fur” helped shape us into the type of animal that humans are today.
Finding Stuff Out is a lively science-oriented series which, instead of imposing adult notions on kids about what they should know, gives them what they want: answers to the questions that matter to them the most!
