LOC Method
If you have been experiencing serious dryness this winter, you may benefit greatly from using this method of moisturizing your hair. Especially if you've found that no matter how many things you've tried, your hair is still feeling dry hours later. This method is called the LOC method.
L.O.C method, what is that?
L=Liquid.
O= Oil.
C=Cream.
Here's how it works. The liquid moisturizes your hair. The oil seals in the moisture, so that it won't escape. Then the cream works to locks in both the liquid and oil. The cream creates a barrier so that neither will escape your hair strands. The whole process is based on how you layer each key ingredient.
Step 1: First use water or a water-based moisturizer (which means water is the first ingredient listed on the bottle.) Now apply the L (liquid) to your hair. (If you have thick hair try applying it in sections.) Products such as Giovanni Direct Leave-In, or even Bee Mine Juicy Spritz, will work perfectly.
Step 2: Next, apply the O (oil) make sure the oil is a natural oil such as (coconut, extra virgin olive, or shea butter.) Apply the oil directly on top of the liquid.
Step 3: Finally apply the C (cream) on top of the liquid. Creams such as Bee Mine Luscious Moisturizer, or even Shea Moisture Conditioning Curl Milk will work for as the cream. Just make sure the consistency of the moisturizer is thick and creamy.
Now, if you like to wear your curls down, try adding gel or styling butter as your (cream.) As shown below.

Using the L.O.C method will stop you from having to reapply products daily to your hair. Therefore it helps to save $ in the long run.

You said it makes to were you don't have to apply products daily. How after would you do this method then?
I use it on myself and my baby girl. She's only 1 but I wanted to start her on a healthy hair journey. She has beautiful, soft curly hair and I want to keep it that way. She's the reason I decided to go natural and I've been transitioning for 8.5 months now. It works great on both our hair.

my scalp is still dry however,I do have a relaxer..but still use natural products...Ido the loc method..what do u recommend using on the scalp? and maybe I need to try loc every day because I don't do it daily
I tried the LOC method on my relaxed hair and it did NOT come out like I thought. I ended up washing my hair again right after. Can this method be done on relaxed hair? p.s I use it on my daughter and LOVE it!!!
