Hey Glamfam!
In today's video we are going to discuss a topic that I've been getting a lot of questions about lately: "How do I take care of my low porosity relaxed hair?"
Spoiler alert...you don't. Thats because there is no such thing as low porosity relaxed hair. Caustic chemicals we put in our hair permanently alter the structure and porosity of the hair. Each time you chemically treat your hair, in increases a little (or lot) in porosity, as well as it's need for moisture, protein, and TLC.

At first, I had no intention of covering this topic, but after a started getting the same question from multiple people, I wanted to ensure that I spoke about it, as clearly if people are asking, then an answer is needed...especially considering that many naturals have been thinking about taking the plunge back to relaxer. In short, relaxed, permed, and bleached hair all require elevated care, as the chemicals have elevated your porosity.

I hope this helps answer any questions that you may have had on the topic, but if you should have a few more, please don't hesitate to ask me in the comment section! Until next time GlamFam, take care, God bless, and stay Glam!
You know I love you boo!

I learned more watching this 6+ minute video than I learned in the last 4 years. This is why you’re a teacher. Thank you.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! You broke this down so well that it made me understand my relaxed hair so much better. My water glass hair test tells me I’m low porosity but my hair doesn’t respond to a low porosity regimen. When I started treating my hair like it was high porosity, my hair started thriving and because of your explanation, I now know why. Thank You!

YES! Its just BIOCHEMISTRY (my field) :) Very nice explanation.
OMG - I LOVE teaching props! ESPECIALLY your hair follicles- brilliant!! :)

[BrittanyGas]

Wow your students have no idea how awesome their teacher is!!! Great video!

Thank you! I’m a 12 year natural going back to relaxed hair this week and I’m arming myself with as much info as possible. I was a low porosity natural and now I have to adjust to being a high porosity relaxed girl - so incredibly helpful!

Linwood, where were you when I was taking chemistry Sir? 😂 This is the best examplation ever! This is the first time I understood this! Great job with the education. Greatly appreciate it!!!

I remember when I was a little girl my mama threatened to whoop my butt because she had told me to go oil my hair and thought that I hadn’t. My hair looked dry ass hell but when I rubbed my hand down my hair and showed it to her it was slick with oil. This classroom lesson was very helpful and clarifying. Thank you

Such great information. I take all of your tips and educate my 'stylist'. She can style hair but she cannot take care of the hair/scalp so I bring my own products all at the right PH and chosen by my trichologis and I have my hair on a schedule based on consistency and what it is asking for. She is basically the labor, I am the brains! Thanks for the constant knowledge!

I actually shaved my head a couple years back and have been enjoying the super short look. But now thinking of growing it back out and this will be super helpful on my journey. Thanks Linwood, you are a gifted teacher!

This was a complete explanation of hair porosity. Thank you for sharing so much of your knowledge. This post brought back good memories of cosmetology school.😀

Best explanation ever given about hair porosity. I was knowledgeable about this topic, but this information provided, I just became the expert with the levels of it. Time to open your own school.

[ashlouw]

Ive heard of changing of the pH levels when you use harsh chemical treatmens but it hasn't been broken down like this where I truly understand it. Thank you for this very informative break down. I'll be saving this when getting products for my hair

[kimneal]

Your in-depth tutorials have sustained me throughout the pandemic and now I don’t feel the need to run to the salon every two weeks for minor things I can do at home😎

[sweettoothmarie]

I'm a relaxed girl and this is useful info for me...

[m.b.]

Thank you 🤗 I have a relaxer and this year I wanna do my best to completely understand and properly care for my hair. ..Thanks again 🙏

[LivxLaughxLove]

Considering getting a relaxer, so this is great information to know! Thank you!

[tinagray]
