I think the SS were at first Hitler's bodyguards, and were only comprised of Aryan men. Whereas the SA were for the other Nazis, and I think the SA was much larger than the SS. The SS was headed by Himmler while the SA was headed by Ernst Rohm.

Sort of

SA were the original bodyguards

Then the SA grew large and the SS became from the elite part of the SA.

The SS were now his bodyguards - all aryan etc

The SA were like a private ARMY, not bodyguards

The SA were basically thugs, who beat-up communists and other rivals

The SS were elite and were at largest about 30 men

The SA were designed to protect Nazi speakers from left wing violence. Their main purpose later was to disrupt meetings of the SDs and communists and intimidate them. The SS was the Nazis own private police force who acted as a personal bodyguard for Hitler. They were set up in 1925 and in 1929 run by Himmler. They were a military group but the SA were a protection squad and used to gain power that was set up in 1921.
