I know there is alway the caveat, with a traditional or natural humecant, that in exceedingly dry weather conditions it can strip hair of moisture instead of provide it.
I would like to know, though, if that applies *after evaporation* if it was applied with water originally.
So, for eg, if you have an aloe/water mix in a spray bottle and apply it to the hair, that should work to moisturise as at that moment the water is there.
If that is used as a leave in, though, the hair eventually will dry off, presumably leaving behind aloe traces. If you are in dry climate, is the risk of 'stripping' water still present at that time?
i.e once chemically bonded with water [as on application in this eg] does it remain chemically altered or will it revert and therefore risk stripping the hair down the line?
I hope that makes sense of the question.
Thanks!
