I suspect the reason why they're putting coconut in the "low porosity products" and trying to get us to buy into it is because it's a cheap product to use in their manufacturing process...
I think my hair is low porosity but nothing bad happened when I use castor oil or coconut oil. I made the mistake of using Shea butter but on my scalp and I used cold water so it didn't want to leave my roots. Now I use warm water and baking soda as a cleanse then shampoo and the castor oil comes off from my scalp. Castor oil is good for edges and that's where I use it mostly but I used it on my entire head when I was thinking from stress, lack of sleep and using raw carrot oil without a carrier oil. Not all oils are sealants.
I have low porosity hair and I agree with everything you said. My hair hates coconut oil, and heavy butters. My favorite deep conditioner is the TGIN miracle honey mask. I am a new subscriber, thanks for sharing!😊
was almost gonna buy this cuz of these comments but just saw it has silicones which is a big no for me, for the curly way ;; do you know alternatives without silicone?
@@2PMisTimelessI go through this same issue. It’s not a lot of silicone but I feel it ON the hair... if they took it out then it would be my holy grail. Right now, I use the mielle moisture hydrating deep conditioner, there’s no protein or silicone and it’s really effective. Unfortunately, it comes in a smaller container so that’s a bummer.
Thank you so much for this! My texture looks pretty similar to yours but I've been struggling with getting good curl definition, especially at my ends. I have definitely noticed heavy creams just coat my hair and weigh it down, and makes it look stringy almost.
I always use a heating conditioner cap to deep condition, after oiling my scalp, and just for no reason throughout the week. My hair grows quick and healthy.
Your hair looks really nice. Omg! I didn't know that Kemi OYL was still around. It's been about 3 decades since I've used it. That was my favorite oil when I was relaxed. Gonna have to purchase some. Thanks for sharing. Peace and Blessings ❤
It's really nice listening to you. It's like my friend is talking to me and yes thank you for the info I have wavy hair low porosity and I have recently found it out. Thanks a lot for sharing this
Wow , I have low posority hair, and was notice, the thinning and breakage, I am glad I found your channel, I had used Olive Oil Moisturizer three years ago, and noticed my hair loves it. I will go back using the moisturizer , '
I used my aunt's Olive Oil Moisturizer a while back, and my hair loved it. I was trying to find the name of it right right now when I saw your comment! My hair soaked it up nicely, and it was soft even when it dried, no crunchiness.
Im so confused because when i did the hair in water test my hair floated but my hair takes a really short time to dry like 10-20 mins but when i add too much product it just sits on top?
I believe I am low porosity my hair STAY FUCKING DRY AND NO MATTER WHAT I DO ITS DRY and FRIZZY i feel like relaxing it honestly ill try these but if no luck relaxer it is 😂
It can be challenging to moisturize low porosity, but adding low heat (just a minute or two) helps when trying to get moisture to penetrate the hair shaft. Don't give up just yet. ❤️
My hair takes forever to get wet but drys SUPER fast is that still low porosity? Also products do take awhile to absorb but after it does my hair is back to being bone dry, and that’s within a day or so.
This could still be low porosity hair, but perform the "hair strand test" to better determine your hair porosity. You can find videos here on TH-cam that show how to do the strand test. Thanks for watching!
You & your hair are just beautiful 😍😍. The Almond Jai Twisting Butter & Curl Love Moisture Milk from Camille Rose are just gems. They smell amazing, is moisture packed, & absorbs in the hair strands so well. Tfs.
I tried the tgin DC years ago, didnt work for me, it was like a placebo. I was so disappointed because i spent a lot on their products, but such is the life of us naturals. Trial and error. I will try the shampoos. Appreciate your content, we need more info and products for low porosity. I did find a leave in by shea moisture. Its not bad just a lil oily. Blessings and continued success.
Words cannot express how thankful I am that I found your video. I have low porosity hair and I have been struggling for years with breakage and trying finding products that worked and nothing did. My hair was still dry and breaking no matter what I did. I came across this video a few months ago as well as your video showing your wash day routine and I followed exactly what you did. Now 6 months later, my hair has grown so long and thick! I never thought this day would ever come. Thank you so so so much for sharing with us what worked for you ❤️
New subbie! Thank you so much for this info I will be buying all the products that you mentioned in this video….I have always had trouble with my low porosity 4C hair……thank you so much……you are a godsend!
it's sad that it took me 11 years to find out about my hair and still learning. I finally found the perfect products for my fine 4c low porosity hair and it's Taliah Waajid curls, waves and natural line.
Fr, it's so hard to get my parents to buy hair products I want, they just say "you already have hair products", so it's really hard for me to take care of my hair
Can you tell if garnier whole blends honey will be good for low porosity, because you said not to use sulphate but it has sulphate in it think and you said honey is good and this has honey too
My low porosity hair looooooves sulphates. I tried giving them up & I had thee worst crunchy dry hair using sulphate free products 😩😩😩 Clarifying tea tree shampoo is life. I’ve recently learned my hair loves honey too.
Hi there, at the moment, The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam and the Ouidad Heat and Humidity Stronger Hold Gel has been my winning wash n' go combo lately for my low porosity hair.
Thankyou do much for replying so quickly, I have one more question which I should have included sorry, Do you think eco styler , wetline extreme,?or kinky curly custard are good choices for w low porosity wash and go’s . I’ve tried the doux but it makes my scalp itch. Thanks again
I would say the Wetline Extreme would be your best bet because it has glycerin and aloe vera as ingredients. Kinky Curly Custard would be the second choice, and since the eco style gel has wheat protein in it, I'd stay away from that one.
oh ok. tried that. But I think I have made a discovery. I think I can use it with leave in conditioner mixed. However using aloe vera with water spray and then leave in after not good. @@zolekamazibuko8764
Thank you soooo much for sharing this. I'm currently transitioning for relaxed to curly hair and it has been such a struggle. I've been buying some trendy leave-ins but all they did was dry my hair and. Turns out they all had shea butter as a top ingredient and low porosity hair doesn't like that. I recently bought Camille Rose Honey Hydrate and I swear I've never seen my hair so hydrated and frizz free 😭
It seals your hair so if you put coconut oil on your hair it can trap like the dryness in a way. My hair doesn’t like coconut oil but my scalp does? It’s weird
I make my own hair product using shea butter,mango butter vitamin e oil,avacado,rose,grape seed oils but I apply to my scalp only and it's does wonders
I brought the shampoo by shea the one you used and man my hair was like. I will slap you next time you use this. The hair mask was on point but the shampoo was a no no. It made my hair really hard.
Hi, typically right after you wash your hair is good. Low porosity hair gets product build- up easily, so I wouldn't recommend you condition your hair daily (unless you're someone that washes your hair daily as well).
Thank you for this explanation! I only just found out my hair is low porosity and why most Shea Moisture products don’t work for me, but Camille Rose Curl Maker works well for me.
What if you're not really low porosity but actually some where in the middle? Would the products you mentioned still be beneficial since they do in fact contain healthy ingredients?
If you feel your hair is in the middle, then that would be medium/normal porosity. This would mean that your hair can take in moisture fairly easily and hold it for a longer time. If that's the case, you'd want to stay away from products that are heavy and be sure not to use a lot of products that have protein in them (normal porosity hair already has the right level of protein), or you will easily get protein-overload. You mentioned in another comment that you were trying to bring your hair back to life. Check the labels on the current products you are using because you may be in protein-overloaded, which produces dull, dry, frizzy, hard, and limp hair. The products I mentioned in this video should work well with your hair 🙂.
I have low porosity hair and I'm trying to start my own journey with natural hair and I'm not sure but is Mielle a good hair product? Some people have said their hair has been falling out from it while some say it's working for them. I had bought the shampoo and conditioner from the brand but haven't used it yet, I don't want my hair to fall out..I used avocado oil for my hair and everything seems fine.
You are right my hair loves honey & aloe vera Everything but hates coconut oil. I just found out by your video I'm low porosity hair type. THANK YOU! New sub here
Hey sis enjoyed your video. Good info. Stumbled across researching info to help me bring my hair back to life. Subscribed! Good luck with your channel.
I have low porosity hair and back of my head has pimples often and dry and rough scalp too, you're video will be really helpful, thanks alot ❤. How many often should I use clarifying shampoo?
Curious. I recently figured out about hair porosity and i also have straight, thin, fine hair and my hair just feels dry on day 2 after just getting new shampoo and conditioner from Carol's Daughter. Possibly feels dry cz i didnt do clarifying shampoo first or deep conditioner but any tips on getting that moisture in on day 2 hair?
Thank you for this. I just recently damaged my hair with a color shampoo. I used way too much and now my hair is dry and breaking. I’ve had shedding for a while but no breakage until now. I was just trying to cover the few greys I had and it didn’t even do that 😞 It just left my hair in worse condition. I learned low porosity hair does not like too much products so we have to be careful not to over process our hair. If I can’t restore my hair then I may just have to cut it. I’ll do what I can first and hopefully it turns out okay.
@@SimplyJustCee It’s okay it was a lesson. Now I know not to use too much product in my hair moving forward. I thought it would be okay since it was supposed to be a natural color shampoo but it made little difference. I’ll try a few sessions of deep conditioning but yes it’s okay to start over if I have to. Thank you 🙏🏽💗💕
I can relate to your post except I was using a shampoo to keep my grays gray which in turn dried my hair out so bad. I've had to cut my hair off several times because it keeps growing back brittle. It's so frustrating....
@patricemurray7620 I'm sorry to hear this. Try taking a spirulina supplement. It has worked wonders with strengthening my hair, increasing it's thickness and it reverses grays. amzn.to/3OVzGGK
@@patricemurray7620 Oh no… You would think that by cutting it, it would grow back healthy but it’s still brittle after that smh. That does sound frustrating. I was thinking of cutting my hair if the deep conditioning doesn’t repair it but now I wonder if it will make any difference by cutting it. So are you just going to keep cutting it until it grows back healthier? Have you already tried deep conditioning treatment/ reconstructing hair bond? I wish there was some kind of warning on the label to not use too much or maybe there is. I don’t think I want to use any color moving forward.
I have to spray my hair one or two times over about an hour just so my hair can actually get wet within the course of a 15 minute shower lol. I was bald for about 7 years and recently started growing out my, hair again. I had so many problems with product build-up last time I grew out my hair because I was using high-porosity products (which it seems like most products are for high-porosity 😮💨). This time around, I'm using Allafia black soap for shampoo, Pierre's Apothecary conditioner, NOU's low-porosity leave-in, and tiny bit of Renpure conditioner (or any conditioner tbh) bc the NOU leave-in needs just a little bit of help to hold moisture throughout the day. I co-wash every time I shower, and I shampoo every 3-4 days. The Pierre's apothecary conditioner is sooooo good, it really moisturizes and washes put like 95% clean. It's not a shampoo, but it rinses out great because it has only a few, light ingredients in it.
I agree with everything that you're saying,EXCEPT Coconut oil. For some reason my hair seems to love it..I did order some great new products I'm going to fast from coconut oil and see what happens..My scalp likes castor,my hair doesnt get greasy,but HONEY iz the shizz!
Very very informative. With trail and error I learned just about everything you said. I will def try some of the products you suggested. Thanks so much for this. After 10 years of being natural my hair should further along than it is. U made my day. ❤🥰🤗
I have type 2 hair and it may be on the lower end of porosity. Becuse it takes a long time to blow dry. However it takes color ok and I know that coloring your hair can effecty hair porosity. So I am wondering if these products will improve my hair health as I have always has a hard time finding things that help my waves and not build up on them. I know that when your hair grow at the root its already low. If anybody has any idea on stylers or other products feel free to let me know. FYI when I blow dry its always frizzy and when I put a flat iron to it. It never gets complely straight. 😊
I’m confused on something, for the conditioners, like TGIN and Camille Rose, do I wash those products out or leave them in? Also, do I use these products all at the same time when I shower, or pick and choose?
Clarifying shampoos should be used when you feel you have quite a lot of build up or Haven't washed your hair in awhile, otherwise just use your moisturizing shampoo, then go in with you regular rinse out conditioner to help you detangle your hair, next should be your deep conditioner which you can apply heat to like she said for it to really work, you wash everything out up till the point of a LEAVE-IN conditioner and the a styling cream and oil ❤ Hope this helps?
This is by far the best informative video on low porosity hair. Besides have a question how many times do we have to use the clarifying shampoo and deep conditioning mask??
Hi there, yes, I recommend you own both a clarifying and moisturizing shampoo. She should clarify your hair when you notice a lot of product build-up on your hair or scalp; use a moisturizing shampoo after and a good conditioner.
I agree with what u said , i have low porosity hair, n my hair hates buttery products , n loves olive oil , it absorbs it easily n like u said it keeps it like u r not going anywhere
Hey there! I don't recommend using a moisturizer daily. Low porosity hair holds on to product and gets weighted down easily. Take a look at your wash day routine because that's where the initial hydration and moisture will come from. If moisture in locked in properly, low porosity is able to retain moisture anywhere between 3-5 days (depending on the style it's in). I use Camille Rose's Curl Love Moisture Milk as my moisturizer every 4 days with a little water or The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam if my hair is in its curly state. Check out my Wash Day Routine for some tips on how to lock in moisture on low porosity hair. th-cam.com/video/Sd0p7nJHLSo/w-d-xo.html :)
Hi there, both argan oil and murmuru butter work well for low porosity hair. In my opinion, since murmuru butter is an emollient, it's going to penetrate the hair better, allowing for moisture to enter.
Hi there, the SheaMoisture Manuka Honey Yogurt Hydrate Repair Whipped Curl Cream works well with low porosity hair as well as Camille Rose Almond Jai Twisting Butter.
How do you apply the butter without it flaking or weighing it down? Im considering just stopping at leave in. Also do you use heat after to 'set' your hair? I find my hair takes forever to dry otherwise and the moisture doesnt go in. More than products, i think i need to learn the right technique for my hair

@@yourtypicalshortscreator777 your welcome we low porosity girlies must stick together 🥰
I'm so glad a TH-camr said it... Cause my hair HATES COCONUT OIL! 😭
It literally damaged my scalp.
There’s so many products that are allegedly for low porosity hair that have coconut oil as a main ingredient and it always has me in confusion 😅
Right!! Get that 🥥 outta here! Lol
I suspect the reason why they're putting coconut in the "low porosity products" and trying to get us to buy into it is because it's a cheap product to use in their manufacturing process...
That's such a great point!
I think my hair is low porosity but nothing bad happened when I use castor oil or coconut oil. I made the mistake of using Shea butter but on my scalp and I used cold water so it didn't want to leave my roots. Now I use warm water and baking soda as a cleanse then shampoo and the castor oil comes off from my scalp. Castor oil is good for edges and that's where I use it mostly but I used it on my entire head when I was thinking from stress, lack of sleep and using raw carrot oil without a carrier oil. Not all oils are sealants.

How often should I be conditioning my hair in the shower, should it only be when I wash my hair or every other day?
Hi, typically right after you wash your hair is good. Low porosity hair gets product build- up easily, so I wouldn't recommend you condition your hair daily (unless you're someone that washes your hair daily as well).
Thank you so much, I guess I needed a black girl's wisdom to get my questions answered properly 😮💨
Thank you for this explanation! I only just found out my hair is low porosity and why most Shea Moisture products don’t work for me, but Camille Rose Curl Maker works well for me.
What if you're not really low porosity but actually some where in the middle? Would the products you mentioned still be beneficial since they do in fact contain healthy ingredients?
If you feel your hair is in the middle, then that would be medium/normal porosity. This would mean that your hair can take in moisture fairly easily and hold it for a longer time. If that's the case, you'd want to stay away from products that are heavy and be sure not to use a lot of products that have protein in them (normal porosity hair already has the right level of protein), or you will easily get protein-overload.
You mentioned in another comment that you were trying to bring your hair back to life. Check the labels on the current products you are using because you may be in protein-overloaded, which produces dull, dry, frizzy, hard, and limp hair. The products I mentioned in this video should work well with your hair 🙂.

@@patricemurray7620 Oh no… You would think that by cutting it, it would grow back healthy but it’s still brittle after that smh. That does sound frustrating. I was thinking of cutting my hair if the deep conditioning doesn’t repair it but now I wonder if it will make any difference by cutting it. So are you just going to keep cutting it until it grows back healthier? Have you already tried deep conditioning treatment/ reconstructing hair bond? I wish there was some kind of warning on the label to not use too much or maybe there is. I don’t think I want to use any color moving forward.
The Doux Dear Mama Moisture Milk is a new ❤ for me. It can be used as a leave in and possibly one and done
Very nice video! Luv all the products you suggested 🥰💙
Thanks for sharing !
Thank you so much mama! I’m subscribed now. Low porosity hair is a trip!
Unfortunately I can’t get that Kemi oyl on Amazon UK and no other site seems to carry it. Shame.
Ih wow, that's disappointing.
Also thank you for the video. I changed a lot of products and my hair is doing great! Just daily moisturizer I can’t seem to find one. Please help!
Thank you so much for this ! I just found out my hair is low porosity… Could you recommend a good protein treatment for low porosity ? 😊 thanks !

HOW ABOUT KINKY CURLY KNOT TODAY LEAVE IN CONDITIONER IS IT OK FOR LOW POROSITY HAIR?
I have to spray my hair one or two times over about an hour just so my hair can actually get wet within the course of a 15 minute shower lol. I was bald for about 7 years and recently started growing out my, hair again. I had so many problems with product build-up last time I grew out my hair because I was using high-porosity products (which it seems like most products are for high-porosity 😮💨). This time around, I'm using Allafia black soap for shampoo, Pierre's Apothecary conditioner, NOU's low-porosity leave-in, and tiny bit of Renpure conditioner (or any conditioner tbh) bc the NOU leave-in needs just a little bit of help to hold moisture throughout the day.
I co-wash every time I shower, and I shampoo every 3-4 days. The Pierre's apothecary conditioner is sooooo good, it really moisturizes and washes put like 95% clean. It's not a shampoo, but it rinses out great because it has only a few, light ingredients in it.
I'll have to check that Conditioner out. 🙂
I agree with everything that you're saying,EXCEPT Coconut oil. For some reason my hair seems to love it..I did order some great new products I'm going to
fast from coconut oil and see what happens..My scalp likes castor,my hair doesnt get greasy,but HONEY iz the shizz!
Yesss, honey is the business! 🔥
Do you use one of those loc or lco methods?
Why do you recommend shea moisture line if low porosity doesn’t like shea butter or coconut oil?
Thank you for this informative video. I have so much to learn but you have helped me.
❤️
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!
Very very informative. With trail and error I learned just about everything you said. I will def try some of the products you suggested. Thanks so much for this. After 10 years of being natural my hair should further along than it is. U made my day. ❤🥰🤗

What are good products for detangling low.perosity hair
I am a new subscriber! Thank you for sharing!
So glad to have you here!
I have type 2 hair and it may be on the lower end of porosity. Becuse it takes a long time to blow dry. However it takes color ok and I know that coloring your hair can effecty hair porosity. So I am wondering if these products will improve my hair health as I have always has a hard time finding things that help my waves and not build up on them. I know that when your hair grow at the root its already low. If anybody has any idea on stylers or other products feel free to let me know. FYI when I blow dry its always frizzy and when I put a flat iron to it. It never gets complely straight. 😊
You can check out@luhhsetty and@ashleeswest
❤ Used to have really helpful videos
I hope it helps
I’m confused on something, for the conditioners, like TGIN and Camille Rose, do I wash those products out or leave them in?
Also, do I use these products all at the same time when I shower, or pick and choose?
Clarifying shampoos should be used when you feel you have quite a lot of build up or Haven't washed your hair in awhile, otherwise just use your moisturizing shampoo, then go in with you regular rinse out conditioner to help you detangle your hair, next should be your deep conditioner which you can apply heat to like she said for it to really work, you wash everything out up till the point of a LEAVE-IN conditioner and the a styling cream and oil ❤
Hope this helps?
Thank you so much. Very helpful video.
I'm glad it was helpful!
Pin ..yes please ❤
This is by far the best informative video on low porosity hair. Besides have a question how many times do we have to use the clarifying shampoo and deep conditioning mask??
Thank you! Check out my playlist titled "Hair Talk with Cee." I did a dedicated video for both clarifying shampoo and deep conditioner.
how often would u reccomend using a clarifying shampoo? should i have both a clarifying and hydrating shampoo?
Hi there, yes, I recommend you own both a clarifying and moisturizing shampoo. She should clarify your hair when you notice a lot of product build-up on your hair or scalp; use a moisturizing shampoo after and a good conditioner.
@@SimplyJustCee how do you tell what hair type you have I don’t know what type I have
Great video!!!! What conditioner do you recommend for medium low porosity hair?
Really appreciate this video…thanks
What product do you use for a clarifying shampoo ?
Hi there, I use EDEN BodyWorks Peppermint Tea Tree Clear Clarifying Shampoo. There's a direct link to it in the Description Bar. Thanks for watching!
Thank you this was helpful
I agree with what u said , i have low porosity hair, n my hair hates buttery products , n loves olive oil , it absorbs it easily n like u said it keeps it like u r not going anywhere
Thanks ✨
What advice do you have for someone allergic to aloe?
Hi there, I'd say avoid products with aloe and lean more towards products with honey.
Thank you so much and yes honey honey honey my hair loves honey
What product do you recommend for wash and go?
I use the Mousse Def Texture Foam from the brand The Doux. I always have good results with that product.
Hi do you have something to recommend for daily moisture on low porosity hair?
Hey there! I don't recommend using a moisturizer daily. Low porosity hair holds on to product and gets weighted down easily. Take a look at your wash day routine because that's where the initial hydration and moisture will come from. If moisture in locked in properly, low porosity is able to retain moisture anywhere between 3-5 days (depending on the style it's in). I use Camille Rose's Curl Love Moisture Milk as my moisturizer every 4 days with a little water or The Doux Mousse Def Texture Foam if my hair is in its curly state. Check out my Wash Day Routine for some tips on how to lock in moisture on low porosity hair. th-cam.com/video/Sd0p7nJHLSo/w-d-xo.html :)
Hii!!! Just wondering if this works for mens hair too. I've been struggle to find right products for my hair.
Hey! Yes, these products should work well with all low porosity hair (regardless of gender). 🙂
@@SimplyJustCeethank you, also does it work for straight, 1A hair?
With low porosity, would aloe whipped butter gel be good or no ?
Sounds like it would.
What TH-cam videos do you recommend for high porosity hair?
Curly chemistry I saw has a video on high porosity hair products, I hope that helps(:
What about wild growth
amazing info!! thanks!!!
Please reply
Is argan oil shampoo is better or murmuru butter shampoo????
For low porosity hair
Hi there, both argan oil and murmuru butter work well for low porosity hair. In my opinion, since murmuru butter is an emollient, it's going to penetrate the hair better, allowing for moisture to enter.
New Sub!! Just watched your castor oil video. Blessings to you.
So glad to have you!
Thanks great
Anyone know any light butters we can use as a low porosity hair
Hi there, the SheaMoisture Manuka Honey Yogurt Hydrate Repair Whipped Curl Cream works well with low porosity hair as well as Camille Rose Almond Jai Twisting Butter.
what do you think about bamboo fibers for low porosity ??
Hi there, I don't know much about bamboo fibers to give an opinion on it, but I'll look into it.
How do you apply the butter without it flaking or weighing it down? Im considering just stopping at leave in.
Also do you use heat after to 'set' your hair? I find my hair takes forever to dry otherwise and the moisture doesnt go in.
More than products, i think i need to learn the right technique for my hair
