Thanks for the update! I think it is looking pretty good! I definitely get better curls when I apply a curl cream in the shower so the sopping wet works for me too. I may have to give Mop Top a try one of these days but so far I am liking the Curls Blueberry Bliss. It has a small amount of protein in it though, so may not be what you need.

As far as porosity, I have no idea. I have tried to figure it out and just get confused so gave up.

I think Spiralicious is supposed to be good for humid weather. I think it has a polyquat in it that is good for protecting against humidity. I'm curious to see how things turn out!

Coming back to this thread to admire your curls again
