CHECK YOUR POROSITY!!!!
I bought a small bottle of porosity control to use the last time I self relaxed. I had forgotten about it until about 2 weeks ago. I underprocessed myself pretty badly and I was losing hair from manipulation of the underprocessed parts which makes up about 80% of my head. I decided to whip out my little blue bottle and give it a try. I washed my hair and applied for just a minute. I rinsed and then conditioned as usual. I have done this twice now and I have followed with a moisutrizing conditioner both times. The change is amazing. My hair is much softer and easier to comb. Believe it or not but in my most underprocessed sections, I could run a fine tooth comb through it smoothly and easily. I am NOT advocating detangling with a fine tooth comb but this just shows you how well it worked. I figured since I have straight relaxed hair, underprocessed hair, and newgrowth all in the same strand then my cuticle must be a mess. I think the porosity control helps smooth the whole cuticle and makes conditioning more uniform. My hair retains moisture alot better now as well.
Bottom line- If you are having trouble with different textures in your hair, give porosity control a try. Use it twice in a row with just a moisturizing conditioner and see the change. It will make your life a whole lot easier and help cut down on hair loss from basic manipulation.
