Moisturize and seal

After your hair is clean and properly conditioned, you’ll want to moisturize your hair properly using either the LOC or LCO methods. To do this, you’ll need a liquid leave-in conditioner, hair oil, and a cream moisturizer. Since it will be a while before your hair is out again, you’ll want to take your time and apply the products to your hair one section at a time. Doing so will allow your hair to retain moisture for longer periods of time beneath your install. Because your hair won’t be out, it’s important to make sure it’s well-moisturized.
