The LOC Method

• Leave-In Conditioner

  Applying a pH-balanced leave-in conditioner is important because it closes the cuticles of your hair shaft. This ensures that all the nutrients and moisture that you added during washing and conditioning don’t escape. It also leaves your child’s hair super soft and alleviates breakage due to dry hair.Some great leave-in conditioners to use in your child’s hair regimen are:

  • Mixed Chicks Leave-in Conditioner
  • Miss Jessie’s Leave-In Condish
  • Cantu Shea Butter Leave In Conditioning Repair Cream
  • As I Am Leave-In Conditioner
  • Carol’s Daughter Black Vanilla Leave-In Conditioner
• Oil

  Oil helps seal in moisture. Apply a thin layer of oil to your hair to help lock in the moisture. Common oils are coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil and Jamaican black castor oil.Some great oils to use in your child’s hair regimen are:

  • Darcy’s Botanicals Organic Coconut & Hibiscus Conditioning Oil
  • Curl Junkie Beauticurls Argan & Olive Oil Daily Hair Conditioner
  • Spectrum Naturals Organic Refined Coconut Oil
  • Sunny Isle Jamaican Black Castor Oil Extra Dark
• Cream

  Apply a butter-based, creamy moisturizer to your hair to seal that moisture in. Shea butter is PERFECT for this step!Some great cremes to use in your child’s hair regimen are:
