Old barber taught me why hot towels do what they do, blew my mind

He told me it's not about opening pores, which is a myth, the heat actually softens the keratin in the hair and that's why my fades were coming out patchy on thick heads, anyone else ever get told something that flipped their whole technique after 7 years on the chair?

Think about how often we just repeat what we were told without ever questioning it. Like, I had a buddy who swore by changing oil every 3k miles, turns out his manual said 5k, whole time he was just wasting money. Once you learn the real reason behind something, it's like a whole new world opens up, makes you question everything else you think you know.
