Curl Science checks popular hair advice against the research, one question at a time. Does rice water help your hair grow? Does the porosity float test work?

The show comes from Kenneth and Kira Byrd, the husband-and-wife team who have run Curl Centric since 2008. Researched and written by Curl Centric. Read by an AI voice.
