Meaning ❉ Hair Lipid Flow describes the gentle movement of the scalp’s natural oils, sebum, along each hair strand. For hair with distinct coils and kinks, often seen in Black and mixed-race hair, this natural distribution can be less uniform due to the hair’s structure. This understanding forms a core part of knowing why textured hair may experience dryness, providing clarity for effective care. To systematize care, one can set up routines that act with regularity, like well-designed systems, to assist this natural lipid distribution. This involves choosing gentle botanical emollients and applying them with considered techniques. Implementing this knowledge practically means consistent, delicate attention to the hair, helping to maintain its soft feel and flexibility, allowing it to remain well-tended.
