What is hair porosity?

Hair porosity is the measure of the number of holes and cracks within the cortex (the interior) of your hair.

High porosity hair means that your hair has a large number of cracks and holes within your hair’s cortex.

Low porosity hair means that the cortex of your hair possesses no holes or cracks within the cortex of your hair.
