    Hey girl, have you tried doing the LCO method instead of LOC? I had the same exact issue w/ moisture leaving my hair so quickly & couldn't understand why (my hair is v. similar to yours; 4b, same length, moderately dense)... I switched the order of products and it changed the whole game for me lol. Since the O you use is a mix of sealing oils (almond & castor are so thick), maybe doing the cream first then the oil will help lock in that moisture!

    • @AuntieSenSen
      @AuntieSenSen 7 лет назад +52

      Gabrielle Artis I have found that the LCO method works best for me too

    • @LynLvs2Laugh
      @LynLvs2Laugh 7 лет назад +18

      TheNotoriousKIA Try this combo: really LOCG, Water is the first liquid. I can't manipulate my hair without it. O is any oil of choice. I switch this up but my favorite is the scalp oil mix by Mizzini. It's expensive but you will see the difference. The C is my leave in moisturizer, normally Giovanni's Direct Leave In or Shea Moisture's castor oil leave in moisturizer. Both are creamy and I smooth them in well. I follow that with my gel normally eco with Argan oil.

    • @LynLvs2Laugh
      @LynLvs2Laugh 7 лет назад +26

      FYI: My styles usually last the whole week. My favorite way to moisture my hair? I leave my shower cap off and let my hair absorb the humidity from my shower. Once I'm out, I lightly massage some oil in my hands and spread it through my hair. Living dangerously I know but it works lol.

      @TheSmileycece 7 лет назад +12

      I have 4c hair too , this method works very well for kinkier textures .I've used it on multiple clients with similar hair texture to me and it works.It's better for me living in rainy England as it just seals evrything in.

    the dryness might be due to the fro. I found that spraying my hair lightly with water, applying a sealant to my ends then putting my hair in four loose buns kept my style moisturized and intact for the week.

    In my opinion Liquid, Cream and then Oil makes the most sense for dryer hair. Putting cream on top of oil is not as effective as putting oil on top of cream bc oil seals in moisture better than cream. Cream dries out faster. But your end result looks fantastic.

    I've always wondered if people had to wait their hair in the morning like me every time. I'm new to the natural hair movement and I don't have anybody to advise me. But my hair is really flat and matted on the sides in the mornings so if I don't wet it, I can't style it. But it's so cold!!! This method seems better. Thanks for sharing it!

I appreciate you, some of my curls are silky and loose and others are dry and tight. Real question what’s your favorite leave in conditioner and gel/cream to use?
    I know it’s different for each person but since my hair is so similar I would like to try your favorite cause it’s costly. Finally created an oil mix (try adding lemon grass oil it will help you hair grow fast)! Sorry if you are repeating yourself I couldn’t get through all 500+ comments. Thank you in advance and I can’t wait to test this out
