🌍 Did you know that Afro-textured hair has fewer cuticle layers than other hair types? This is why our hair is more prone to dryness and moisture loss—especially in colder climates. In this video, I break down the science of Afro hair structure, how our hair is adapted to warmer environments, and what this means for your hair care routine.
📌 What You'll Learn in This Video:
✔️ Why Afro-textured hair has fewer cuticle layers than Asian or Caucasian hair
✔️ How cuticle count affects hair porosity & moisture retention
✔️ The role of genetics & environment in shaping hair structure
✔️ How cold weather impacts Afro-textured hair differently than other hair types
✔️ The best hair care routine to protect your strands in winter & summer
🔥 The Science of Hair Cuticles & Porosity
🔹 Afro-textured hair (originating from warmer climates) has 3-7 cuticle layers, making it easier for moisture to enter but harder to retain.
🔹 Asian hair (from colder climates) has 7-10 tightly stacked cuticle layers, locking in moisture and protecting against dryness.
🔹 Caucasian hair falls in between, with 5-8 cuticle layers, allowing for a balanced moisture absorption & retention.
💡 How Seasonal Weather Affects Afro Hair:
❄️ Winter: Dry, cold air strips moisture, leading to brittle strands & breakage
☀️ Summer: Higher humidity helps retain hydration, reducing dryness
⚠️ This is why following generic hair routines from different hair types may not work for you!
✨ How to Care for Afro Hair in Different Seasons:
✔️ Winter: Use heavier butters & oils (like Hair We Gro’s Hair & Body Butter) to seal in moisture
✔️ Summer: Lighter products & frequent hydration to maintain balance
✔️ Avoid harsh chemicals & over-processing that can increase porosity over time
👉🏽 Watch now to learn how to properly care for YOUR hair based on its true porosity and cuticle structure!
