Balancing Curl Cream for High Porosity Curls + Coils in Temperate Climates
Full size: 8 oz aluminum jar | Sample/Travel Size 2 oz aluminum Jar
High porosity hair refers to the high amount of gaps within the cuticle. The more gaps there are, the higher the porosity.
Because of these gaps, high porosity hair is more susceptible to weather changes.
In dry weather, high porosity hair will lose moisture through the gaps. So in dry climates, high porosity hair needs to be sealed to prevent drying out.
This curl cream was intentionally formulated for high porosity hair in humid climates to provide hold, definition as well as reduce and prevent frizz.
The humid line is also a great option for those who live in areas with salty air, as it will provide added protection from sea spray and salty air that can dry your hair out.
For temperate climates, or areas with average dew points of 35-55F
What's Inside:
Organic tremella mushroom extract has the ability to hold moisture, it forms a light film over hair strands, locking in moisture thus helping to maintain the integrity of the hair. It is also a natural alternative to hyaluronic acid and silicones, leaving hair silky and shiny.
Organic artichoke extract preserves the cohesion of cuticle scales. As a result, hair's protective outer shield is maintained, blocking the entry of damaging elements. Therefore, the internal matter will be less attacked by harmful factors. Artichoke leaf extract helps promote more resilient, shiny, frizz-free and disciplined hair.
Organic, unrefined kokum butter softens and seals the hair strands, while also promoting growth. It has been shown to rejuvenate damaged hair and prevent hair loss. It is excellent for high-porosity-hair as it will seal the cuticle and prevent frizz. It softens the hair, and helps promote elasticity.
Organic, unrefined coco butter is a great choice for high porosity hair strands as it is an occlusive that will hold water in, as well as preventing too much from entering the strands. Packed with fatty acids (stearic, oleic and palmitic acids), the rich, creamy texture of cocoa butter infuses your hair strands with essential moisture. It penetrates deep into the hair shaft and reduces hair porosity. Cocoa butter not only seals moisture into your hair strands, but also forms a protective barrier over your hair. This keeps your hair safe from UV exposure, chlorine water, dust, pollution, heat damage and chemical hair products.
Castor oil is healing and fortifying making it one of the best oils for high porosity hair. This oil is not only great for sealing strands, it has some benefits for your scalp. Castor is one of the best oils for high porosity hair (especially in dry or humid weather) because it acts as a sealant that creates a thick coating on the hair strands to keep moisture in and frizz out.
Organic, unrefined sunflower seed oil is a high-penetrating oil, notorious for adding moisture to strands, stimulating hair growth and improving scalp health. It is an emollient that also has humectant properties, allowing it to attract water to the hair.
ECOCert-approved and a USDA Certified 100% Biobased, naturally derived silicone-ALTERNATIVE that is inherently biodegradable, reduces frizz and keeps hair frizz-free, protects hair from color degradation, helps seal down cuticles and restores more natural structure of hair, provides heat protection and prevents damage from heat appliances, Improves elasticity, strengthens the hair and prevents breakage. This is not a silicone- it’s a clean, green alternative to silicones.
Plant-based amino acids strengthen the follicles and encourage growth. High-porosity hair needs regular implementation of protein as it loses it easily.
