YOU MUST SHOW YOUR NATURAL HAIR DURING CONSULTATION
For overworked or over-washed hair, we recommend our Knotty Conditioner & Co-Wash for dry and damaged locs. Not only will you hydrate and replenish, but adding steam to the equation will send the ingredients in these conditioners deeper into hair and rehydrate from inside the hair shaft outward.
It’s hardest for this hair type to absorb moisture because the cuticle doesn’t open easily. Even if you apply products with a lower viscosity that are meant to sink in, it might not happen. This leads to dryness and lots of product buildup on top of the strand. This visible result is weighed down, greasy curls/locs that once cleansed are actually dry.
What steaming does for low porosity hair is utilize a safe heat to open the cuticle and let moisture in. For this hair type, it’s best done after shampooing with our Knotty Spa Shampoo. You want your hair to be clean and ready for all the moisture of your conditioner or treatment to settle in once the vents on the hair shaft open up.
Another benefit of steaming is deep cleaning hair. In the case of medium to highly porous hair, which may tend to soak up oils and creams more easily, when you open the cuticle up with a steam you can help release any grime that has settled in and that your regular cleansing isn’t able to remove. It works the same way to lift the cuticle and clear it out, then restore moisture before you seal it back up.
