What it is
A humectant that draws moisture from the air into the hair shaft. It is one of the most widely used and studied ingredients in moisturizing hair and skin products.
Why it matters for curly hair
Glycerin is one of the best ingredients for curly hair. It actively pulls moisture into the hair, which is essential for curl definition and frizz control. The only caveat is that in very dry climates (low humidity), glycerin can pull moisture out of the hair instead, so it should be paired with a sealant like an oil or butter. In normal or humid conditions, it is a curl's best friend.
