Unlocking the Secrets of Your Hair: A Friendly Introduction to Hair Porosity




Hello lovely AfroDeities,

Today I plan to demystify a topic that might sound a bit technical but holds the key to your hair's happiness – hair porosity. Its a topic I've really struggled with getting right and so I thought as usually I would jot down my feeling and thought on the topic here.


We're diving into the wonderful world of understanding your hair a little better, making it a journey of self-discovery and fabulous locks.


So what's this Hair Porosity Thing?

Okay, let's start with the basics. Hair porosity is like your hair's own VIP pass to the moisture party. It's about how well your hair can absorb and hold onto that much-needed hydration. Picture the cuticle—the outer layer of your hair—as a set of tiny scales. Depending on whether these scales lay flat, pop up a bit, or lift up like they're dancing at a concert, your hair will behave differently.

Understanding hair porosity is like discovering the secret sauce for a customized hair care routine. It's like giving your hair the exact love it craves.

Why Should You Care About Hair Porosity?


Now, you might wonder, "Why is this important? Does my hair throw a party with moisture and not invite me?" Well, not exactly, but knowing your hair's porosity level can solve a lot of those pesky hair issues—like dryness, struggles with keeping moisture in, or dealing with products that just don't want to cooperate.

Different porosity levels mean different needs. Low porosity hair might be a bit picky about letting moisture in, while high porosity hair might be all too eager to let it escape. Knowing your hair's porosity is like having the insider's guide to giving it exactly what it needs.
