QUESTION 1

How does your hair feel to the touch?

Rough

Smooth

Hard to say - sometimes smooth, sometimes rough

YOUR HAIR IS:

High porosity

What does it mean if hair is high porosity?

High porosity hair has scales that strongly deviate from the hair shaft and therefore has a tendency to become tangled and/or brittle (specific white spots).

This hair type can be a natural genetic trait, but you can also acquire this trait, e.g. through inappropriate care, highly invasive hairdressing procedures (including frequent bleaching and coloring) or over-straightening, repeated and excessive blow-drying with too much heat.

How to care for high porosity hair?

Use cosmetics containing Proteins, Emollients and Humectants (PEH balance)
In shampoos, look for gentle cleansing ingredients (no SLS) that will cleanse the hair without drying it out
In conditioners, masks and oils, look for oils such as jojoba, sweet almond, grapeseed, cottonseed or nigella to close the cuticle and proteins such as vegan keratin, wheat, oat and milk proteins to penetrate the hair and rebuild it

YOUR HAIR IS:

Medium porosity

What does it mean if hair is medium porosity?

Medium porosity hair has scales that do not adhere too tightly to the hair shaft, but are also not strongly deviated from it.

This type of hair can be a natural genetic trait, but you can also acquire this trait, for example through invasive hairdressing treatments (including frequent bleaching) or too frequent straightening and repeated blow-drying with too much heat.

YOUR HAIR IS:

Low porosity

What does it mean if hair is low porosity?

Low-porous hair has scales that cling tightly to the hair shaft, creating a smooth and resilient sheet full of shine.

This hair type can be a natural genetic trait, but you can also acquire this trait through the right care.
