Honey for Hair

[05girl]

Hey, what affect does the use of honey have on hair? Would a honey treatment be affective and useful on low porous hair?

I have low porosity and I add honey to my deep conditioners to increase moisture to my hair. Honey is also an antibacterial substance so it is really good for the scalp too.

Honey really does add oomph to my DC sessions.

I used honey during my first year but stopped after it was mentioned it can have a lightening effect on the hair. I've since found conditioners that do the trick without having to add honey. I also have low porosity hair.

Honey acts as a humectant. I used to use it on my hair all the time. I'm too lazy to mix stuff nowadays, so I stopped using it when I changed to more effective conditioners.

it losts its colouring properties when it's heated, so you can have no worries about it if you do it in this way !
(a few mins in microwave !)

If you put it in the microwave the peroxide doesn't work anymore.

I have low porosity hair too and I love honey. Where I live it's perfect humectant weather, so honey works great. I like to do a simple honey and EVOO steam treatment - it leaves my hair feeling awesome. You could also find a humectant conditioner for the same effect.
