Hair Porosity Test

Various things can affect the beauty of your hair - coloring, permanent waves, or too much heat from blow-drying.

As a result you hair will feel dry and dull. When you hair is in healthy condition it will hold hairstyles much better; it will take less time to blow-dry and usually has beautiful natural shine.

Hair Porosity Test

In order to test your hairâ€™s porosity, you will need only a bowl of water.

Healthy hair should float because it has a sealed cuticle and therefore does not absorb water.

Excessively porous hair has open cuticle which will soak up water and sink. If this happens during your test, your hair needs a deep conditioning treatment in a salon.

Most important essentials for treatments and products are those with protein and moisture.

Protein is necessary to fill the holes in porous hair as well as to strengthen it while moisture is necessary to improve shine and manageability.
