Knowledge is power. The more you know about your hair, the easier it is to take care of it. Here are some facts you probably didn’t know about your hair:
You can have more than one curl pattern. We all have probably heard about our different curl patterns: 1a-c, 2a-c, 3a-c and 4a-c. Did you know that you can (and probably do) have more than one curl pattern? Your curl pattern can also change.
Hair porosity is just as important as knowing your curl pattern. Now you know your curl pattern, however have you heard about hair porosity? Hair porosity is your hair’s ability to absorb water or chemicals into its strands. This can help you determine what products to use to keep your hair moisturized and nourished.
Hair porosity test: Take a couple of strands of your hair from your comb or brush and drop them into a bowl of water. Let them sit for 2-4 minutes. If your hair floats, you have low porosity. If it sinks, you have high porosity.
Shiny doesn’t always mean healthy. Just because your hair is full of oils and shiny, it does not mean it’s healthy. Healthy hair depends on the health and strength of your hair strands. Ensure to condition your hair regularly, keep it in protective styles and moisturize it daily.
