    Glossary Moisture

    presence of water within a substance or environment

    Moisture refers to the presence of water or other liquids, often in trace amounts, within a substance or environment. In the context of hair and skin, moisture is crucial for maintaining hydration, elasticity, and overall health. For professionals, understanding moisture levels can help in diagnosing conditions like dry scalp or brittle hair, and in recommending appropriate treatments or products to restore optimal hydration.
