Humectants For Hair - Natural Aloe and Glycerin Moisturizers Work With Humidity To Prevent Frizz

Absorb and retain moisture with natural aloe vera and vegetable glycerin.

By definition a moisturizer makes the internal and external layer of the hair softer and more pliable by increasing its hydration and reducing evaporation. Water alone is not a sufficient moisturizer because it's hydrating/softening effects evaporate as the hair dries. Humectants, on the other hand, increase the level of hydration in the hair because they draw moisture from the atmosphere and pull it into the hairs cortex, effectively moisturizing the hair, inside and out, for extended periods of time.




Remember the old saying "too much of a good thing"? This is especially true with humectants and hair care. You should only apply just enough to lightly coat your hair, otherwise the excess moisture that will be drawn into the hair will force the cuticles outward and cause frizz. Another thing to remember is that certain climates (high humidity) can affect the way your hair reacts to glycerin, so you may need to experiment to find the right regimen.

Brendita, are your products scented? Is it savory or sweet?

[BrenditasBodyWorks]

@Clarity321 Products for both hair and skin are available scented or unscented. All facial care products are unscented. Please go to our website to see the scent choices: There are too many to list here :-)

I disagree. The theory is that since the air is drier in winter, glycerine will draw moisture from your hair, since it can't pull any from the atmosphere. Even if this were the case, the glycerin is still in your hair, so if it's pulling moisture from your hair, it's not going any where. It's not as if glycerine is a water seeking thief, grabbing moisture and running away :-) Personally, I've had no issues with dryness in the winter from using glycerine. Thanks for the question!

I heard that glycerin is bad for the hair during the winter. What is your opinion?
