Roots Up Porosity Sealant

Read Carefully to know more about you hair porosity.

Hair porosity is a term used to describe your hairs ability to absorb and retain moisture. We know that hair consist of up to 8 layers and the cuticle is the outer layer. How well your cuticle absorb moisture and oils, determine the porosity of your hair.

We categorise hair porosity in three categories :

*Low porosity : Low porosity means that your hair strands have a tightly bound cuticle layer that lays flat and tends to repel water. The hair dries easily because water or moisture can't fully penetrate the hair. Once the water penetrates, and the hair is completely wet, it will take long time to air dry. So holding onto moisture is not the issue, but getting it in is. 

*Medium Porosity: In medium porosity, cuticles are less tightly bound and is considered normal porosity because it has no difficulty getting the moisture in and retaining it. 

*High porosity: High porosity means that your hair strands cuticle are completely widely spaced. It absorbs moisture quickly, but because the cuticle are widely spaced, it doesn’t retain that moisture easily and loses the moisture just as quick as it absorbed it, leaving it looking frizzy and feeling dry.

You can find These hair porosity in ALL TYPES OF HAIR.

What is the function of a sealant?

A hair sealant is used to seal the moisture within the hair strands. You moisturize your hair with water or water-based products. In order to trap the water we put into her hair, we must “seal” it in. Oils are best to lock moisture in as oil molecules are larger than that of water so they literally block them from leaving the hair shaft. But for this to work properly, you need to know your hair porosity and Which oil to use according to your hair porosity, otherwise the only thing you are going to do is weigh your hair down and cause breakage in the long run.

 How to use:

 Start by moisturizing your hair properly. Then, section the hair and use a small amount of this sealant to each section to seal the moisture on to your hair strand.
