If your hair feels like it just won't drink up conditioner no matter how much you apply, you might be dealing with low porosity hair. This hair type has tightly packed cuticles that resist moisture, making it harder for hydration and oils to penetrate the strands. The result? Hair that can feel dry, dull, or product-heavy, even when you're doing everything right. The good news? With the right oils, low porosity hair can become soft, shiny, and manageable. Oils don't just add gloss; they help seal in moisture, reduce frizz, and protect your strands from damage. From lightweight grapeseed oil to deeply nourishing castor oil, knowing which oils work best for your hair type is the secret to transforming your tresses.
