Forget Curl Type. Let’s Talk Porosity.
You probably know whether your hair is 3C, 4A, 4B, or somewhere in between. But do you know how your hair handles water?
Curl type describes the shape of your hair and the twists, curls, or coils it makes as it grows. Porosity tells us something different. It helps us understand how your hair interacts with water.
That can tell us a lot about hair health, product choices, product layering, and even how we style our hair.
Your curl type tells us what your hair looks like. Porosity can tell us more about how your hair behaves.
And when you are trying to build a hair routine that actually works, that information matters.
