Hey everyone!
As we all know, keeping your hair moisturized and preventing breakage can be a challenge for many hair types. This is extremely true for very tightly curled 4c hair and low porosity hair types.

Here are some great simple hair tips to moisturize 4c hair types as well as low porosity hair.

Moisturize Wet Hair Immediately After Deep Conditioning.
One great tip is to moisturize your hair immediately after deep conditioning. After washing and deep conditioning with the Hydratherma Naturals products, section the hair in 4-6 sections. While still wet - to each section, apply the Hydratherma Naturals Protein Balance Leave In Conditioner (protein), Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion (moisture) and seal in the moisture with the Hair Growth Oil (sealer). Then, style as usual.  

Remember that water is the ultimate form of moisture but as we all know, we cannot walk around with wet hair all day long. Moisturizing the hair while in its wet state (after deep conditioning) will allow the hair to retain more moisture. This will definitely help to increase the moisture levels in your hair.

                                   Hydratherma Naturals Protein Balance Leave In Conditioner 
                            The Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion and The Hair Growth Oil

These 3 products should be used daily on dry 4C low porosity hair to maintain a nice balance of moisture and protein during the week. It is not necessary to wet the hair before each use during the week. If you are experiencing dryness, this tip will help you a great deal.

Don't Moisturize Dirty Hair. Moisturizing Clean Hair Is Optimal.
Moisturizing dirty hair containing product buildup is a waste of time. To moisturize effectively, the hair cannot be dirty. The goal is to have the moisture penetrate the hair strand from the cuticle (outer layer) to the cortex (inner layer). The water based HydrathermaNaturals Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion will penetrate the clean hair strand easily. If there is too much product buildup on the cuticle, the moisturizer will not be able to penetrate the shaft which will eventually lead to dryness and breakage. It is so important to keep the hair clean.

Know That Hair Oils Do Not Moisturize the Hair.
Many try to use "hair oils" to moisturize their 4c low porosity hair. Oil alone will not properly moisturize the hair. Oil should be used to seal in the moisture "AFTER" moisturizing the hair. We suggest that you moisturize first with the  water based Hydratherma Naturals Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion and then seal in the moisture with our Hair Growth Oil. Water based moisturizers penetrate the hair strand easier and moisturize better. Stay away from mineral oil and petrolatum based products to moisturize because these substances will not penetrate the hair strand.

Don't Over Moisture The Hair
Did you all know that 'over moisturizing' the hair can cause breakage? If your hair is over moisturized, it will feel soft and spongy when wet. Hair in this state will break easily. If your hair is over moisturized, balance the moisture with protein. The HydrathermaNaturals Protein Balance Leave In Conditioner or our Amino Plus Protein DeepConditioning Treatment will help balance the moisture / protein levels. Once the hair is balanced, the breakage will stop and length / thickness will be obtained over time.


If you have 4c or low porosity hair, these tips will help to increase your moisture levels and prevent breakage.  Great hair practices and the right products will keep your hair healthy, moisturized and strong.

Please drop us a note and let us know how these methods work for you.
Best!
