What Is Low-Porosity Hair?
Hair porosity is determined by how open or closed your hair cuticles are, and how porous they are. Having low porosity hair means that the hair cuticles are tightly closed, so its ability to absorb and retain moisture is minimal. Low porosity hair doesn't necessarily mean that you have dry hair, however, it does mean that regular products tend to sit on the surface of the hair, rather than penetrating into the hair.
Some characteristics of low-porosity hair include:
- - Leave-in and styling products don't absorb into the follicles as easily, which leads to product build-up.
- - Product build-up weighs the hair down, sometimes giving it a greasy appearance.
- - Difficulty achieving volume due to weighed-down hair.
- - Hair takes a long time to get wet or dry.
- - Hair is super resistant to dye and colouring.
