What Products To Use For The LOC Method

What is the LOC Method?

The LOC Method is the order in which you use products on your hair to retain moisture. The L stands for liquid, O stands for oil, and C stands for cream. Some naturals have had better results with switching the method around to form LCO at different stages of their hair growth and/or because of their hair's porosity.

What hair products should I use for the LOC Method?

The products you use depends on your hair's porosity--low, normal/medium, or high porosity hair. If your hair is normal porosity, continue to balance it with protein and moisture without overdoing it. Let's breakdown the process for low and high porosity hair:

• Low porosity hair
• L -- warm water or a warm water mix to open the closed hair cuticles, liquid leave-ins to penetrate the closed cuticles, products with humectants such as glycerin and honey during humid months to draw moisture into the hair strands.
• O -- light oils (do not use heavy oils)
• C -- products such as hair milk
