The most widely used human racial categories are based on visible traits, especially skin color, cranial or facial features and hair texture, as well as self-identification. However, the conceptions of race, as well as specific ways of grouping races, vary by culture and over time, and are often controversial for scientific, as well as social and political reasons.
