Type 4C Hair: Medium Density, High Porosity – Your Complete Growth Guide
Froband Hair Mag Type 4C HairMedium Density · High Porosity Your complete personalised growth guide Medium density, high porosity 4C hair is one of the most commonly encountered profiles among Type 4 naturals, and one that responds dramatically to the right care. Your tight zigzag coils give you natural volume and a striking shape. High porosity means your cuticles are open and absorb moisture eagerly but struggle to hold it, and 4C hair is already naturally the driest curl type because of its tight pattern. The combination creates hair that... Lire plus...
Type 4C Hair: Medium Density, Medium Porosity – Your Complete Growth Guide
Froband Hair Mag Type 4C HairMedium Density · Medium Porosity Your complete personalised growth guide Medium density, medium porosity 4C hair is arguably the most balanced profile in the entire Type 4C category. Your cuticles absorb and retain moisture at a healthy rate, your strand count gives you enough hair for real volume and presence, and your tight zigzag pattern creates the natural fullness that 4C hair is known for. The main thing this profile asks for is consistency. When you show up for your hair regularly with the right... Lire plus...
Type 4C Hair: Medium Density, Low Porosity – Your Complete Growth Guide
Froband Hair Mag Type 4C HairMedium Density · Low Porosity Your complete personalised growth guide Medium density 4C hair has a presence and fullness that is immediately noticeable. The tight zigzag pattern combined with a solid strand count creates natural volume and a cloud-like shape when the hair is properly moisturised and defined. Low porosity is the central challenge here, as your tightly sealed cuticles resist moisture even when there is plenty of it to absorb. Understanding how to work with that resistance rather than against it is what transforms... Lire plus...
Type 4C Hair: Low Density, High Porosity – Your Complete Growth Guide
Froband Hair Mag Type 4C HairLow Density · High Porosity Your complete personalised growth guide Low density, high porosity 4C hair is one of the most delicate profiles to care for, and one of the most transformative when you get the routine right. Your tight zigzag strands are fewer in number and their cuticles are open and raised, meaning moisture rushes in during wash day and rushes back out almost as quickly. The combination of low density and high porosity means your hair can look thin and feel perpetually dry... Lire plus...
