Why do influencer hair remedies fail to work for everyone?
Most influencers promote one-size-fits-all remedies without considering individual hair porosity.
For example, rice water is great for high porosity hair but can make low porosity hair stiff and protein-overloaded. Using the wrong remedy can worsen dryness, breakage, and hair loss.
Why does my hair feel greasy even after washing?
Answer :If you have low porosity hair, your cuticles are tightly sealed, making it difficult for oils and products to penetrate. Instead of nourishing your hair, heavy oils sit on the surface, leading to build-up, limp hair, and scalp issues.
Can too much protein damage my hair?
Yes! High porosity hair needs protein to fill cuticle gaps, but low porosity hair already has a tight cuticle.
Using too many protein-rich treatments (like egg masks, keratin products, or rice water) can make low porosity hair brittle, stiff, and prone to breakage.
Why do deep conditioning treatments sometimes make my hair feel worse?
If you have low porosity hair, using thick, heavy conditioners can sit on the hair without being absorbed, causing product buildup.
Instead, use lightweight, water-based conditioners or apply heat (like a warm towel wrap) to help the moisture penetrate.
What’s the biggest mistake people make when choosing hair oils?
Using the wrong oil for your porosity!
Low porosity hair needs lightweight oils like jojoba or argan to prevent buildup.
High porosity hair needs heavier, sealing oils like castor or coconut to lock in moisture.
- Why does my hair still look dry even after oiling?
Answer: If you apply oil to dry hair without hydrating it first, it just sits on top instead of moisturizing.
Always spritz your hair with water or herbal infusions before applying oil to help it absorb properly.
- Can incorrect porosity care lead to hair loss? Absolutely!
Using the wrong products can cause build-up, clogged follicles, protein overload, or moisture loss, leading to weak hair, excessive shedding, and slow growth.
Understanding your porosity is key to choosing the right routine for strong, healthy hair.
