Can you have different hair porosity on one head?


📸 @amaka_maranma (IG)

Yes, it is possible to have different hair porosity on one head. Hair porosity is how your hair absorbs moisture. It can be low, medium/normal or high or a mixture.

Hair porosity can vary from strand to strand, and even on the same strand, porosity can differ along its length. This is known as "porosity variation" or "porosity inconsistency."

There are several reasons why porosity variation can occur:

1. Genetics: Hair porosity is influenced by genetics, and some people may naturally have a mix of high and low porosity hair.

2. Hair damage: Chemical processing, heat styling, and mechanical damage can cause porosity to vary along the hair shaft.


3. Hair growth patterns: Hair grows at different rates and in different directions, which can lead to variations in porosity.


4. Product buildup: Using heavy styling products or using them excessively can lead to buildup, causing porosity to vary.


5. Scalp conditions: Certain scalp conditions, like dandruff or eczema, can affect hair porosity.


To address porosity variation, you can try:

1. Targeted treatments: Apply treatments specifically formulated for high or low porosity hair to the corresponding areas.


2. Customized hair care: Use products suitable for your overall hair type, but adjust application and frequency based on porosity variations.


3. Protective styling: Use gentle, low-manipulation styles to minimize damage and reduce porosity inconsistencies.


4. Regular trims: Trim your hair regularly to remove damaged ends and promote healthy hair growth.
