Sorry but the rhino horns are simply made of matted hair. Therefore, any hair taken from elsewhere on the rhinoceros will have the same composition. This composition is keratin, which is common to all mammalian fur. The differences in color are simply due to melanin and the structure of the hair (but once ground into powder, the structure is irrelevant, the basic composition remains the same: keratin). In short, your own hair will be just as effective as rhinoceros horn...
