17 Best Conditioners For Low Porosity Hair
Low Porosity Hair Conditioners
By Siraad Dirshe · Updated September 1, 2022
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

By now, most of us are well aware of the low porosity conundrum (if you’re not, you can catch up here).

The hair’s inability to retain moisture can make it difficult to find the right products for wash day, especially when it comes to finding the right conditioner. The key, however, is to discovering a product that is super lightweight; versus one that is greasy, or one that just sits on the hair. This can be tricky considering many of our favorites are super thick and gooey.
