High porosity hair

How to take control over it?

Fragile, prone to damage, curling or simply curly. These are the usual qualities of high porosity hair. You can get high porosity hair naturally, but it happens that high porosity hair results from improper care, excessive styling, dying or bleaching. It is very often dry, lacking moisture, rough to the touch and dull. It may even seem damaged. It also has a high tendency to frizz, and combing it effectively requires a lot of patience. It is suitable for various types of styling, but its resistance to breaking or splitting ends is rather low, therefore protection and effective hydration are very important in its daily care.

 

High porosity hair is characterized by the most open cuticles. It is this specific structure that defines the way it looks and the type of care it requires. High porosity hair quickly absorbs the applied products, but it quickly loses them as well, therefore its care products should both fill in the inside of the hair and seal its surface. While this type of hair is the most difficult one to turn soft and shiny, that doesn’t mean it’s not possible at all. On the contrary! Properly selected products for high porosity hair combined with appropriate care treatments are able to guarantee its perfect condition, healthy appearance and can bring out what is best in them.
