“It’s Me, Not You: A Guide to Breaking Up with Your Hair Products”

by Candice M

Well, it’s never easy giving the speech, especially when it comes to breaking up with your hair products. It’s like saying, “It’s me, not you.” Letting go, though difficult, may be the key to achieving the hair results you desire.

In a previous article, we explored the significance of embracing your natural hair. Yet, it’s equally crucial to recognize when it’s time to bid farewell to products that may not be the best fit for your hair. Understanding your hair’s porosity is a vital aspect of this journey.

Hair porosity, essentially your hair’s ability to absorb and retain moisture, plays a pivotal role in product selection for optimal hair health. High porosity hair quickly absorbs moisture but struggles to retain it, while low porosity hair has difficulty absorbing moisture. Knowing your porosity level can revolutionize your approach to finding the perfect products for your unique hair needs.

When navigating the world of product labels, knowledge becomes your power. Steer clear of products containing harsh ingredients, especially sulfates, which can strip your hair of its natural oils, leading to dryness and damage. Instead, opt for sulfate-free alternatives to maintain your hair’s natural moisture balance.

Dive into the ingredients list to find oils and creams suitable for your hair porosity. High porosity hair benefits from heavier oils like olive or coconut oil for much-needed nourishment, while low porosity hair thrives with lighter oils such as jojoba or argan oil, preventing product buildup.

Being intimate with your hair involves understanding its unique characteristics and needs. Empower yourself to break up with products that may be doing more harm than good. Embrace the journey of finding the right products tailored to your hair’s porosity, and witness your natural beauty flourish. After all, when you deliver the speech, remember: it’s me, not you, and your hair will thank you for it.
