Skin color (otherwise known as skin phototype) and hair type account for the major differences in the skin of the various ethnic groups. Fitzpatrick developed a skin type classification in 1975 based on how the skin behaves to UV radiation exposure. It correlates the skin color (i.e., its melanin content) with its ability to tan or burn with UV light exposure. It has six categories, including the following44:
◾ Type I includes people with red and blond hair, blue eyes as well as freckles, and very fair skin. This is the type of skin that never tans and burns very easily. People with this skin type are extremely sun sensitive.
◾ Type II includes people with fair skin, red or blond hair, and blue, hazel, or green eyes. This skin is very sun sensitive, burns easily, and tans minimally.
◾ TypeIIIincludespeoplewithcreamwhitetooliveskin,fairwithmainlybrown or sandy hair, and any eye color. This skin type is sun sensitive; however, it can gradually tan to a light brown and sometimes burns. It is a very common skin type.
◾ TypeIVincludesthosewhohavedarkbrownskin,darkbrownhair,andgreen, hazel, or brown eyes. This skin type always tans to a moderate brown with minimal burning and has minimal sun sensitivity.
◾ Type V includes people with dark brown skin who tan well, very rarely burn, and have sun-insensitive skin. They usually have dark black hair and dark brown eyes.
TypeVIdescribesdeeplypigmentedblackskin.Theyhaveblackhairanddark
brown eyes. This skin type is sun insensitive, which always tans and never burns.
is important to keep in mind that everybody, regardless of race or ethnicity, is subject to potential adverse effects from overexposure to the sun. However, some skin types are more vulnerable, than others to the harmful effects of the sun.
The FDA has a classification system similar to the Fitzpatrick system; it takes into account the skin’s reaction to sun exposure
