Here are 5 recommendations that you want to incorporate into your hair care routine
Clarify regularly: Use clarifying shampoos or apple cider vinegar rinses to remove buildup that may be blocking moisture from penetrating the hair shaft.
Deep condition: Opt for protein-free, lightweight deep conditioners that can penetrate the hair shaft without weighing it down, and use heat (such as a hooded dryer or steamer) to help the product penetrate deeply.
Steam treatments: Regularly use steam treatments to gently open the hair cuticle and allow moisture to penetrate more effectively.
Use lightweight, water-based products: Choose products specifically formulated for low porosity hair, avoiding heavy oils and butters that can sit on the hair’s surface and prevent moisture absorption.
Incorporate regular moisturizing: Spritzing hair with water-based leave-in conditioners or using a water-based moisturizer daily can help keep low porosity hair hydrated without causing buildup.
