Hair has different types of porosity. Porosity is the amount of moisture that the hair is able to absorb. There are a lot of factors that affects the porosity of the hair such as hair colors, perms, relaxers and other things. The more the hair is expose to these factors affects the overall porosity of the hair. The Porosity are Resistant porosity, normal, or extreme. Extreme porosity will relate to damaged hair that are unable to take color very well or it will fade faster or often. That means that the cuticle is missing and the hair is badly damaged.

What not to do to hair with high porosity?

Porosity refers to your hair's ability to retain moisture. Hair that is highly porous has a raised cuticle that is both quick to absorb and lose moisture. Much highly porous hair is the result of overprocessing, and it is best to avoid chemical and heat processes on such hair in order to prevent futher damage. Instead, using protein treatments will help fill the gaps in the cuticle of porous hair.
