This chick is a curly haired genius.
Nicole Marcel lawl thanks xD
I think I'm low pro cause my strand of hair floated but I'm bleached blonde, curly head who straightens her hair so what the f. And you're welcome!
haha we're all different :) Nicole Marcel
I know it is pretty off topic but do anybody know a good place to stream new tv shows online ?
@Darwin Donald Flixportal :P
I love how u explained this easily, other people would have made it like 12 minutes long just to explain
Sharon Mcclelland haha thanks! I try to get straight to the point
I love this too ❤️
You're like the Bill Nye of curly hair😍😍
Andrea Lizcano 🤔
You should do video on split end prevention but for people who already don't heat style. By the way great video!
Miranda Aguilar great idea!
Yes! I would love that! :) :) xx
Yes! I would love that! :) :) xx
Yes! I would love that! :) :) xx
Miranda Aguilar totally agree
She's so pretty. Even without makeup on!
This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far! Great Job Penny! :-)
+JENNIFER ANN FEQUIERE thank you!
I just wanted to thank you because you literally have changed my life. I was like you and always straightening my hair with heat/treatments. It was dead. Then I found your channel and basically binge watched all of your hair care videos. My hair was to my butt, but nasty and frizzy. I have the same curl type as you and it is now that I am 17 that I realize how curly my hair really is. I had to cut off 8 inches to get rid of all the damage. I've been heat free for a month and sulfate/silicon free for 2 weeks now. The change is unbelievable. Thanks a bunch!
Amber Elese aw yay Im so glad for you!
Hey Penny! Did your hair porosity change as you went from damaged hair to virgin hair? Can you do a video on this if so?
you should do different hair masks that u find helpful for dry frizzy hair!
Minnah Ayman soon!
I second this. My hair type changed drastically when I started using henna in my hair, and then changed again when I stopped. I have grey hair so keeping that shit smooth has been a lot of trial and error. My hair is very picky when it comes to finding something that moisterizes without weighing it down. Shea butter seems to work like a charm, and light oils on my wet hair seem to do the trick for the most part.
Curly hair, AMIRITE 🤷
I have low porosity.. it takes me eternity to wet my hair when i wash it :D
Miška Burandová haha funny!
I think that I have low. My hair floats when I do the water strand test and it takes ages for it to dry. But it's a weird texture and its bumpy when I run my fingers up it. It also tended to be quite dry.
You should try using hair masks! Heat ur hair and apply the mask, leave it overnight making sure its warm up there, and then shower in the morning with a final apple cider vinegar and cold water rise!
Me me me me :(
TBH, I have skipped past your video so many times because "I don'tt have your type of hair, what can you teach me?" But your explanation has given me so much clarity on identifying my porosity and treating my hair. Thank you girl.
Hahaha i was moving my fingers up and down the hair strand and it was making a squeaky noise and i kinda got addicted to doing it for a while
***** haha xD
High when I lake a shower it like dries really fast and it's always frizzy and dry also I did the tests lol this video was really helpful! Thx!
I have low to normal porosity.... yrp! thanks for the help!
Same
I am so glad you said that because when I tested my hair doing the water method, it was kinda at the top yet most of it was below the water towards the middle. I thought that I did it wrong or something!!!!😂😂
This video was very helpful! I did both test and found out that I have high to normal porosity(which explains my constant friz). Thank you for the vid!
Thank u so much for this video i had really no idea about this
Mria1990 yay so glad :'D
Lol when u said a long period of time it made me think of that vine that's like we have to wait a long periodically time
jada mottavation hahaha xD
Periolodically*
Can you do a video on how to figure out whether hair needs more moisture treatments or more protein treatment? I love your videos btw!
Thank for the information ,I have low porosity and i would like to see more videos of tips to treat low porosity and more DIY :)
Well explained 👍🏼, I at first thought I might have high porosity hair but I think mine falls into to medium/normal now. Mine does get wet quickly (within10 seconds) and dries if loose within 30 minutes. I just put little bit of hair oil and it does the moisturizing.
Girlie, I've seen a lot of Tutorials about this & your explanation has been the best...down to earth; it's all about the hair being dry? Now I get it!
I looked at my hair through a microscope in school and danmmmm my hair is damaged 😟
But I mean I already knew cuz I have tons of split ends
Arielle Black same
Theeeeee BEST explanation I've found! Thanks‼️
Educational! Love your positive attitude by the way
Omg, your awesome. I saw a few videos and just wasn't getting it til I watched you! Thank you!!
Is it bad if my hair squeaks when I run my finger up and down a single strand?
Rowena Apo Yes... its happens..
I thought I was the only one
squeaky slide tests are a indication of low porosity hair
Kate Marie oh cool! Thanks! That was happening to me too
i did the sliding test and it started to squeak.. i have no clue how to stop my hair from squeaking >.
Caitlin Tails same and idk if that means i have low or high porosity 😭
Same!
Its so cool that you are not only a beauty guru ang blogger, but you are also very smart and explain things so well
Momo Bird aw thank you
You have helped me so much with my hair thank you🎀💕
Best explanation regarding the porosity so far...Superb clarity it contained...Straight to the point..Thank you so much penny for saving my time and glad to see this video as I was seriously so confused to understand the hair science
So glad I watched this video because I had no idea what porosity my hair was. I kept seeing ppl talk about it but now I feel a lot more informed!
I have high porotisy :/ hard to get moisture in my hair ...thats y u should do a *daily hair moisturizer* i know u dont do nuthing to ur hair in between washes but if i dont my hair will be very dry anything i can do???
Arabian Beauty Wet it everyday and put in a leave in conditioner :)
Okay thanx guess ill go out tomorow by me a leav in thanx for replying like always
Watching this in 2024 with the intention of learning more about my hair! Thank you so much. Your video was very informative!
ive been subscribed to you for a while, and i'm just now starting to take better care of my hair!! i have absolutely no clue what my porosity is, because when i do the slide test it feels a little jagged, but in the water test my hair floats. i don't know what im doing!!
My hair like curled in the water and it was half floating and half in the middle. I am trying to grow my hair out and she always informs me in what I need to know that I did not even know I needed (if that makes an sense ) Thank you Penile!
So much information in a 5 min video, you are the best penny
You always get to the point and that is why I binge watch you. I don't need to skip around trying to find where you start talking about the topic in the title lol
You are literally the curly hair genius!!
haha thanks!
Hi, Wow, thank you for really breaking it down so I can finally understand
You made so much sense. Now I totally understand what all this means.
I don't know, I still can't figure out my porosity...my hair frizzed a lot, I can't figure out what products to use for the frizz to stop, I did the water test and my hair stays on top, I can't feel a lot of bumps on a strand of hair and when I use certain conditioners my hair feels mushy, I'm just having a hard time figuring this out, I thought you wouldn't have frizz with low porosity hair, but that is my biggest struggle oh and my hair feels so dry!! Help
Me too omg
i think you have low porosity hair, and I think you have frizz because your are not hydrating it the rigth way. try to deep condition it and apply some heat while your deep conditioner is on your hair.
Maribel Enriquez same
And use good conditioner!
Really great way of explaining hair porosity. Your videos are by far the best curly videos. You inspired me to bring out my natural curls and reduce heat to my hair. I currently have bleached platinum hair but don’t want to cut it to start over. Any tips on how to start over with already bleached hair????
You have explained this topic so well...Thank you for the 101 on hair porosity👍
I have high porosity. I just did the swiping test and it did feel jagged. Thanks Penny :)
I came across one of your old videos on how to take care of curly hair. I am in the 8th grade and i'm realizing how damaged my hair is. I've watched other hair care routine and they all use bad hair products. Your advice was much better tbh lol. I'll start taking your tips because youre an inspiration (:
sheena varias aw thanks! If you ever need more help lemme know
Beautiful explanation
I did both test and I’m a low girl yass!
This explains so much! Thanks a lot! :)
How to take care of your hair when you're constantly busy?
I have low porosity, it explains so much. Thanks for the info!
Yeah my hair is low porosity for sure! It is hard for it to absorb everything even water. If I don't touch it and just leave it under the water without touching it then the water will just run on top of it for a while up to 30 seconds or even a minute! But it is also very shiny and healthy so the struggle of moisturizing it is worth it!
Wow 🤩 i thoroughly understood that 😊
Excellent... straight and to the point. Thanks.
You explained it so good!! :-)
Can you show us your hairroutine (if it changed)?
Do you do the no poo method?
:)
It has changed a lot :) at the moment I just use Deep Cleansing Shampoo By SHea Moisture :)
This is an informative video; I love how you take common information to teach new concepts. That's a teacher!
Can you make more videos using coconut oil? Like DIY stuff and how to apply coconut oil to your hair?
Jackie Johnson sure!
Thank you! I love all your videos!
Jackie Johnson treating low porosity hair

Jasmine M thank you
I've learned so much from this video. Thank you so much for sharing
I missed you so muchhhhhh yay a new video
Maria Gomez
I am so happy you did this video I didnt think of this
I have high porosity so it's hard to get moisture to stay in my hair. Great video on porosity! Thanks for sharing with us. This reminded me I need to do more deep treatments especially in these winter months.
icebluechick definitely!
I had no idea... Thank you very much for sharing this information....
Thankyou, this helped me. 😊
Thank you for this. I have been truing to understand this forever.
thank you, super helpful
Very good explanation
Tysm I did’t know what this was you explained it so well❤️
Thank you so much
I've been watching all your videos on hair
I have low porosity but my hair really absorbs moisture and stuff really quick
Great presentation
When I do the slide test with my fingers when I slide upward it feels bumpy so I thought I had high Porosity, however my hair takes forever to get wet so I have no idea. I’ll try the water test next
loved the video, you know so much about hair and your channel is really helpful :)
livinglifewithsloane thank you
I have low porosity. Assume I wash my hair in the evening around ten-eleven, have a snack, watch some Netflix and go to sleep at one, my hair is still damp from the midlength to the roots when I wake up at ten in the morning. It's fricking ridiculous. I don't even have it in a bun or anything but push it over the pillow on the top of my head.
My husband has high porosity and he's got long hair, a little over his shoulders. With the same time schedule his hair is dry when he has finished his snack.
Also I wash my hair every 3-4 days meanwhile he goes ten days and it doesn't even look dirty.
Wow this was so informative. Thank you so much!
Great video ! I was so confused until now !
Great articulation! Super helpful. :) Thank you!
Awesome video! Very informative, thanks :)
Thank You So Much

Arianna Monero hahaha maybe! Im just not that interesting xP haha!
This was a very informative video and you’re very smart...thank you!!!❤️❤️😭
You are amazing! Thank you for your videos! Please keep them coming girl :)

Very well explained young sis, thanx. ✊🏾💯😎
I have to questions that I really need help with. 1. My hair is pretty short (shoulder length). How should I style it? 2. How are you so confident? I am worried people will make fun of my hair since it's short and curly. How can I be confident with my curls without wearing it in a bun everyday? Thanks :)
Also, how long did it take you to grow your hair to its current length? And what length did you start at?
All my hair is more like my fathers and is silky and low porosity. Then i have these two sections that are tigher curl and high porosity like my moms. I found water and grease sovled the problem of the constant dry feeling. The tangle and break so easily lol. That's what you get for being mixed 😂😂 those sections love grease.
This video was very helpful for me to figure out my hair porosity. Can You make a video on conditioning the different types of hair porosity...
What if my hair has low porosity closer to the roots but it comes to normal at the ends and it becomes messy and and kind of curly and dry and unhealthy looking and stuff? How do I make it look more healthy? Should I maybe just cut it shorter and let it grow out again?
I am so glad I found one of your videos which led me to your channel. I am so frustrated with my hair because of how bad I took care of it. I used various hair products like spray, gel, and mousse all at once and little did I know that it would mess up my hair to this extent.
I actually began to lose hair because of all the products I used all at once. Also with stress from university and work doesn't help either. Finally, to top it all off I currently have a dandruff problem which also causes hair loss.
If you have any healthy, natural remedies or tips for hair loss and dandruff please let me know!
Thank you so much for your videos!! I am so happy I found your channel!! I can't wait to begin taking care of my hair the healthy way from tomorrow on. ^^
Ivelisse Alvarado Hi! Gel, mousse and spray have one thing in common, alcohol. They are drying and give NO MOISTURE. Your hair needs MOISTURE. Invest into a good leave in conditioner :) also, make sure you watch this video where I share all my knowledge on how to keep your hair nice and defined
th-cam.com/video/zwNmK6hDFqQ/w-d-xo.html
CurlyPenny Yes!!! I literally just saw all your videos! They were extremely helpful! There was so much that I didn't know. Thank you!!
I really can't wait to begin taking good care of my hair.
Ivelisse Alvarado If you need any more help lemme know!
CurlyPenny please do a diy hair trim or hair cut tutorial
soon!
I have low porosity aparently...... 😂 Would have never known that if I didn't watch ur vids! 😂 💖 U Penny! Good luck with nursing school! 😀
+Mistygirl17
Lucky for me, we have the exact same hair. I can tell in your videos. Same thickness, same strand thickness, same curl pattern---everything. I just have to do exactly what you say, lol. My hair is pretty nice, but I've definitely been committing some sins lately. I'm definitely going to do cowashing now, along with thicker conditioning on the hair below the ear. I've been using it on my scalp too much and it weighs it down. I'm also going to be much more careful and braid my hair back when I surf. I think surfing a lot has caused me to lose more hair than normal.....
I feel like you are my older sister teaching me all i want to know about curly hair care 💕
Roy AlYa awww :')
Ur a genius! U are a beauty queen.
Well explained
you are so right
I have low to normal porosity! thx penny!
You were so ahead of your time 💕✨ original curly teacher 🙌🏽
