Hair Porosity Test
~1.4 mins read
Goodevening beautiful people ☺️
In my last post, I talked about hair porosity and how it affects your hair growth (feel free to check if you missed it☺️).
Anyways I'll be teaching you how to do the test today.
To do a hair porosity test, you have to make sure your hair is clean meaning you'd have to wash and dry the hair first, do not apply any cream or oil, and if you do not want to wash your whole hair it's fine. Since all you'll be needing is a strand of hair, you can choose to wash just that one strand and dry with a towel.
Get a glass filled with water and drop your hair into the water. If your hair floats on the water it simply means you have low porosity hair,(your hair finds it hard to absorb moisture,) so you'd have to avoid products with protein in them and always use warm water to wash your hair, it'll help you open the pores on your scalp.
If the hair sinks to the bottom of the cup then you have a high porosity hair. Feel free to use any good product on your hair.
And lastly if the hair stats in the middle then you have normal porosity, therefore anygood products can work.
For those of you with low porosity hair you can try out mielle rosemary mint products or mielle pomegranate and honey collection they have zero protein in them
If you have high or normal just any good product can work
Whatever porosity you have,just be consistent with your haircare routine and you'll definitely see results
Lastly,try not to over oil your hair. Oiling at least once a week is enough.
Do not comb your hair dry and make sure you wash often.
Do remember to cut off split ends, do not be scared to lose that part of your hair cause you're better off without them.

Hair Porosity And How It Affects Your Hair Growth
~0.7 mins read
Hair porosity is the level at which your hair can absorb moisture. There are three different types of hair porosity,which are;
High hair porosity
Low hair porosity
Medium hair porosity
Now if you fall in the high porosity category, it simply means your hair is able to absorb moisture therefore every product you apply goes directly to your follicles. You won't have any issue with breakage and won't need to use much on your hair to grow it.
If you fall into the low porosity category it simply means your hair cannot absorb moisture easily. Therefore you'll have to treat your hair differently and make sure you don't use products with protein or apply too much oil.
And lastly of you fall into the medium or normal hair porosity then just any good hair routine could work perfectly for you.this is very similar to the high porosity hair.
Thanks alot for reading. Watch out for my next post to know how to identify your hair porosity and suitable products for you

Hair Growth Vs Length Retention.
~1.7 mins read
HAIR GROWTH vs LENGTH RETENTION (Long hair)
Let me explain something to you real quick. Not only will this save you stress,but also money.
HAIR GROWTH is a natural process. Infact,you do not have to buy magic hair products for your hair to grow. It will,and can grow,on it's own.
But,if you want to Increase your hair's growth and health,you have to focus on increasing blood flow to your scalp.
Our hair feeds on blood. 🩸
This comes from stimulating the follicles. The follicles is where hair grows from and is pushed to the scalp. At the base (end) of the follicle is what they call DERMA PAPILLA (this is a connective blood tissue and it sends blood to the follicle snd scalp).
Now,things like stress can contrict the blood vessel, making it hard for blood to flow.
What do you do? Message your scalp. This will stimulate you hair follicle and Increase blood flow.
Some essential oils or herbs are known to stimulate and widen the hair follicle.
When this is used to massage the scalp,due to its penetrating abilities,it activates the follicle.
Aside this,even without messaging with a hair growth oil,your hair can still grow.
But,the thing is,hair growth oil cannot give you long hair. It can grow your hair,but it can't give you long hair.
Long hair comes from your hair care practices. This is what we call LENGTH RETENTION.
Length retention is when you're able to SAVE the growth that your scalp is giving to you.
For example,every month you earn 10 coins.
If you keep saving the 10 coins,in a month,you should have 120 coins. The coins Increased right?
Should it be coins retention?
But wen you spend every penny you make,you have nothing to show for it.
Same goes for hair growth. As your hair grows on an average, 1/2 an inch month.
If you're able to take care of your hair, reduce manipulation,you should have 4-6 inches in a year.
Summary; without hair growth, there's no length to retain.
And if you do not retain length, there's no long hair (that is,if your hair goal is to grow long hair).

Difference Between Love And Infatuation
~1.0 mins read
How to know the difference between love and infatuation.
Infatuation is an intense but short lived passion or admiration for something or someone.
Love is an intense feeling of deep affection, great pleasure and interest in something or someone.
They both entail affection and passion but how do they differ?
1. Infatuation is generally sexual attraction while love is attraction to the person himself.
2. Infatuation is most times interested in physical intimacy while love is interested in all other activities in the life of the person.
3. In love you are interested in the persons life outside the bedroom and have the desire to meet his/family and friends. In infatuation you want just the person and nothing more.
4. Love looks out for the interest of the other while infatuation looks out for ones own interest only.
5. Infatuation is strong but short lived. Love is strong but patient.
6. Infatuation is blind with no explainable reasons. Love sees and is always for a reason.
7. Love brings a feeling of safety, security , commitment and partnership. Infatuation brings feelings of unrest .
8. Love is reciprocal and leaves you with a feeling of fulfillment. Infatuation gratifies your cravings but leaves you with a feeling of emptiness.
Please add your own difference in the comment section.
