A slight correction imo, but coconut oil is a penetrating oil. It can be used for low porosity hair (the fractionated kind so it isn't very heavy, has smaller molecules which penetrate easily) along with a heat cap to aid it in penetrating hair. After you've moisturized your hair, you can then seal it with a 'sealing' oil.
low porosity hair will not absorb thick oils like coconut oil. also frizz is normal. my curls are healthy , i have zero split ends or breakage and my hair natuarlly has some frizz. especially in humid weather
I have low porosity hair and this doesn’t quite make sense to me because it’s very difficult to hydrate low porosity hair. It’s not healthy automatically. It takes a lot of work and trial and error to get into those shafts so it stays hydrated.
A few things that actually helped to control my hairfall include: (1) I discontinued wearing ponytails because it causes tension breakage. (2) I started massaging my scalp twice a week with liitleextra cocoonnion hair oil while leaning forward & holding my head inverted to allow blood flow to the scalp. (3) Protecting my head while moving out to protect my hair from dust and pollution. (4) Using soft shampoo again from liittleextra only to wash my hair.
Ok so that's true that my hair takes many hours to Air dry but my hair doesn't get oily very often, only after 5 days without washing it gets oily and I just tested my hair and it didn't go middle or bottom it stayed floating on the surface of water so I am ready confused whether my hair is actually low porosity or not 😅
if occlusive agent doesn't suit well for low porosity hair, then i should choose humectant agent that hydrate my hair or emollient agent in hair-care products. Perhaps, occlusive agent has ability to lock the moisture in my hair, but it's hard to absorb for low porosity hair because occlusive agent has a thick texture. I just think my hair is same like my skin in face. In the first step i should go to humectant or water-based product, the next step is emollient or anything that fast and easy to absorp for low porosity hair so that my hair is moisturize well and doesn't dehydrate or dry or frizzy hair because lack of moisture. 😆✨
My hair is wavy/curly (it got sometimes different hair patterns), medium thick, dry ends and dry itchy scalp, very frizzy and easily get breakage. I think it takes one or two hours to air dry. I can't figure my hair porosity.
I'm confused. I saw a video showing that you grab a small collection of strands of hair and pull them taught with your finger and thumb at the end. Then, with your other finger and thumb, pinch your hair and run it upwards and see jf your hair clumps up or not.
