Happy Sunday! 🤗 In todays video, I’m sharing 3 Things to AVOID when it comes to having high porosity hair. Let me know in the comments if you have high porosity hair and if you find this video useful. Also do LIKE & SUBSCRIBE if you wanna continuing seeing more videos from me 💛
@@carolinenakitto2292 I used to have high porosity hair when I was relaxed, but now it’s around the normal range. But no, my videos are geared towards natural hair care in general.
Hello. Can you please do a video about elastic hair? Like my hair has become too elastic and I read that I need to do a protein treatment and/or cut my spilt ends... so I would just like to know about it because I would love my hair thicker and fuller.
I'am so grateful I cam across your youtube channel. I have high porosity hair and I just discovered this video, and lots of the things you are saying are making so much since now. I'am definitely going to binge watch you love
@@ann-dialiecesaire3513 Hey…welcome! 🤗 I’m glad you found my video useful and yes, please feel free to browse, as there’s lots more videos you may enjoy too.
This was so insighful! I have been using hot water when washing my hair for years and as such my hair has been dried out for years. Thought I needed to do this to get product out of my hair. Stopping this madness today!
Great to hear 👌🏾 Warm water is effective enough to remove product build up and dirt, but it’s more about the shampoo that’s going to get the job done. But I’m glad my video was useful.
I have high porosity hair I knew something was off !!!! yes sis I was using warm water on my was days 🤭🥱 I went natural in 2021 so I’m still in the learning stage . Thank you so much for this tip ❤️
me too. I started using Ms. Jessie, baby butter for my daily curl light conditioner and wash and mask with mielle rosemary mint. use Camille Rose conditioner custard. and so far, very good. I use Aphogee leave in pro vitamin to refresh my curls, and so far, so good.
With the hair dyes I find that black hair isn’t as damaging for hi po girls because it’s not stripping color but it is adding color. I usually dye mine black and don’t have problems with my very high po hair.
@@kellygoodman6167 You have to strip your natural color to deposit blonde. It will be drier and more tangled and prone to breakage. It requires more care and maintenance but I have seen people pull it off with no problems.
I know realize why my hair screaming for moisture. I started coloring at home since covid. I’m using permanent drugstore color, hot water from hell is my go too & my blow dryer. In fact all the don’ts you talk about is exactly what I have been doing😮
Should I stay away from steaming. I saw a TH-camr say steaming was good for high porosity hair. Should I avoid it unless I'm deep conditioning or is it ok to use when detangling? Love the content 💓
@daniellaspace I would avoid any type of heat since heat opens hair shafts. The reason why steams are so highly promoted is because it works best for normal and low porosity individuals who are trying to get their hair shafts open to absorb the products. Since high porosity is caused by the hair shafts being more open than it should be, we need to find methods that will close it or create a seal. Heavy conditioners, moisturizers, oils, and cold water is best for high porosity. Doing your hair in the LCO method and using a heavy grease like Blue Magic to seal your hair (not just your scalp) works wonders for my hair. The cold water will help your hair shafts to close a little as well. If you must use hot/warm water during wash days - try to keep the water lukewarm or room temperature, just be sure that your final rinses are with cold water.
Thank you! Sorry I’m late with the reply, only just seen it 😩 Yes, it’s ok to use heat (steamer) when deep conditioning, but avoid it or lay low on using other heat appliances.
@@HealthyAfroHair thank you so much. I did a lab analysis of my hair a month ago and it turns out I’m actually low porosity. Talk about mind blown 🤯 I love your channel. Keep rising ❤️❤️
Great tips….Thank you!! It is now Winter and I have started using Petroleum Jelly to seal my hair before putting in twists. Never did this before but got desperate once cold, dry weather turned my strands into desert straws. I love it!!!! Not greasy like oils and especially effective for keeping the ends moisturized. Doesn’t take a lot and my strands look great when I take the twists down to moisturize. (I wear head wraps and never wear my hair out in Winter.) Not sure I’ll use Petroleum Jelly in Spring and Summer bec I roll with WnG when it’s warm…but, I’m loving it for now to keep my hair moisturized!! ❤
Did you know when you color treat your hair, you should be deep conditioning your hair often and with heat like a hairdryer in salons. I color my hair but i also deep condition with heat. It helps a great deal.
finally i understand why my hair looks awful after air blowing it It felt likd the only way for it to look good is the pressure from a straightener This also explains why my hair looks good after sealing it in a braid
Do you add moisture back into the hair after blow drying it? Are u wearing your blow dried hair under protective styles. Blow drying is pretty drying, so you have to replenish moisture, especially if you’re frequently blow drying.
Never know what type of hair I have..till I put keratin straighten in my hair..n it damage..starting to fall out..n it get tin....n I feel to cry every day..but tŕy to watch hair lost video.n I will try to care my hair..thank u for this video..
Thank you for this explanation. I just did a big chop where i shaved off all of my hair because it wasn’t growing. I wanna say that I do have high porosity hair because i over use products that have different kinds of ingredients that I use on my hair, as well as washing it with hot water and using different types of shampoos/ conditioner. As well as blowdrying and combing it everyday. I believe that is what caused me to have high hair porosity because I’m an impatient person and I don’t know what my hair likes. I want to be able to use natural products. Or would it be best to not be any products on my hair? Right now my hair is shaved so should I wait until it starts to grow out?
You’re very welcome! If it’s completely bald, then you don’t have to worry so much about using products. However, once your hair starts to grow, you will want to start using them. But keep it simple and stick to one product at a time.
I don't agree with first one: i bleach/balage my 4c hight perosity dark blonde at least 1 a year, and it in fact makes my hair easier to manage... that why i kept doing it. Weird but true and i take good care of it.
Same😂 but I now wonder did I changed the porosity of my hair because I think it was low porosity before bleaching-regardless the secret to managing my hair after years of struggling was bleaching so I’m not stopping
Hey, MSM is good since it’s known to help extend the growing phase and can be taken orally (mixed with a drink) or added to an oil. Also, it’s perfectly fine to wash your hair every 2 weeks, but if there’s lots of build up, then you can wash it sooner.
@@mariafisca6114 You’re welcome! Personally, I think twists are better because it’s not as tight as braids, so will allow the shampoo & deep conditioner to get between the hair more easily. But you can give both a try to see what works best.
You’re welcome! No, I don’t have a video but generally, products with a medium to thick consistency works well for HP hair. So you might like to opt for curling/twisting creams.
I cant straighten my hair but using a blow dryer after washing has helped me tremendously also I wonder if hair porosity has something to do with the way tou apply heat I can do well with hot combs and Marcel tools but flat irons are a no.
@@obaroeyerakporaomenogor1955 The Kinky Curly Come Clean shampoo works great for my fine, high porosity hair! It removes buildup without drying out my hair, which seems paradoxical but somehow it just works lol. Highly recommend it.
If you want your hair to naturally return back to its natural colour, you would have to fully grow it out until all the colour is gone. But if you can’t wait, then yes, there’s the option to dye it black, but that means adding more chemicals to your hair.
Hello dear, I just wanted to let you know that I learned a lot through your chanel, my only concern is doea keratin treatment helpful for high hair porosity? I look for evry single video about it but nothing seems to be found, they always shows video for people with low hair porosity. Can you please advise? Thank you so much sis.
Hey, happy to hear my video was useful. No Keratin treatments don’t have any benefits in helping high porosity hair, as it requires the use of lots of heat and is quite a lengthy process. But once the hair is straightened, it apparently can last for up to 6 months.
@@ioincognito9953 No, not necessarily! It’s more to do with how well the hair absorbs moisture and you’ll generally get an idea based on how your hair feels after applying moisture to it.
Deep conditioning treatments involves using protein (with heat) to treat your hair, so it’s not two separate things. So when doing your protein treatments, depending on the strength of it, you may need to follow it up with a moisturising treatment to prevent your hair from becoming too dry or hard.
@@HealthyAfroHair thank you if you can’t i understand i go to a channel who or low porosity i need some tips on what the best products for low porosity

I always wondered why my hair was so shiny when I accidentally rinsed my conditioner with cold water lol my curls literally popped out so fast
When you rinse your shampoo out. A cold rinse for the final rinse will make your hair shine.
I have fine high porosity hair, I do blow dry once every 6-8 weeks for protective styling.
That’s not too bad. Just as long as the temperature isn’t too high and your hair is protected using a heat protectant.
I have a high porosity hair thank you so much for sharing the tips👍🏾🤗
You’re welcome! Hope it helps 🤗🤗
I have high porosity hair I knew something was off !!!! yes sis I was using warm water on my was days 🤭🥱 I went natural in 2021 so I’m still in the learning stage . Thank you so much for this tip ❤️
You’re very welcome! 🤗 Its ok, you’re still learning and I’m sure you’ll get there eventually.

Or use natural hair desire creme of nature
I want to go blonde in my ends will I be safe?
I think you are telling the truth. I dye my hair black every few months and it’s no problem. I’m still learning though best practices for HIPO hair
@@kellygoodman6167 You have to strip your natural color to deposit blonde. It will be drier and more tangled and prone to breakage. It requires more care and maintenance but I have seen people pull it off with no problems.
Also materials we use to tie our hair cause breakage. Satin is recommended.
This hot water is my downfall. 😣 I’ll do it the next was day. Pray church.
Yes, turn that temperature down girl 😄
I know realize why my hair screaming for moisture. I started coloring at home since covid. I’m using permanent drugstore color, hot water from hell is my go too & my blow dryer. In fact all the don’ts you talk about is exactly what I have been doing😮
😩 Time to put things right 😄💪🏾
My top tip for my HiPo hair is an ACV rinse after deep conditioning.
Yes, that’s a good one 👌🏾 Thanks for sharing.
what avc means please? i'm french speaker, thank you
@@francinekewa1582 Apple cider vinegar
@@francinekewa1582 It stands for Apple cider vinegar.
Or mix a little in your DC
Thank you for this, the dying hair part is hard for me, I dye my hair red and love it😬

it would be great if i had low porosity hair because i love hot showers 😭
