Low-porosity hair is characterized by a tightly compacted cuticle layer that resists the absorption of moisture and product. As autumn progresses and outdoor humidity declines while indoor heating systems activate, this hair type frequently experiences surface dryness, product accumulation, and a rigid texture despite regular conditioning.

Air-drying has become increasingly popular in modern haircare routines, especially as more people look for ways to reduce heat damage and simplify daily styling. For some hair types, air-drying can improve hair health and preserve natural texture. For others, it may lead to frizz, scalp issues, or inconsistent results.

Understanding these changes helps explain why a routine that once worked well...
