- What method do you use??
I've always assumed I had low porosity hair. BUT when moisturizing I prefer the LOC method which has been said is best for high porosity hair. What are your thoughts on this?

I don't use any of them, I use the LB method (liquid, butter). I find that it works better for my hair. Your hair is goals! 😍😍😍😍
Me too..LB makes my hair soft and it breaks less😍
Same. I was using LCO before but find with LB i can go atleast 3days before remoisurizing.
The LCO looks nicer to me, but if its not as moisterizing as the LOC method then that is something to really think about. I always use the LCO method, but this means me want to try both and do a comparison of the methods. Thank you for sharing. Loooove your hair.
Naturally Focus thank you for watching!
I have low porosity hair and for some reason my hair can’t stand the layering of products, it just sits on top and dries my hair out. It can only take 2 products at a time. So I can do L.C. Or L.O. But not all 3
Love love love your channel. I’ve noticed my hair isn’t as moisturized with LCO either. I’m trying LOC ASAPPPP.
I am in awe that you were able to do this style on wet hair versus blow dried hair. Very impressive❤️
This is by far the best natural hair style I've ever seen! 😍😍😍
Omg this is crazy!! I was literally thinking about this yesterday doing my hair. I switched to the LCO method last night because I want the oil to seal everything on top 🥰
Gorgeous can't wait for my hair to get this longg
Same here
I love it! Thanks for sharing! Lord knows I needed this
Sooo glad ur back with posting Love u big cuz ❤️❤️❤️
Mo Motoni love you too Momo!! ❤️❤️
I have high porosity 4c-b and my hair LOVES the LOC method. But instead of liquid I use a creamy leave in then I seal it with an oil then a heavy butter 😭
That's a lot of product on the hair... but hey, if it works for u... 👍🏾
Yay for the upload! Your hair has grown SO much omg 😳😭 I currently do the LCO method and it works for me. Question: how often do you wash your hair? I’ve been meaning to grab me some melanin hair care but didn’t know what products to get. I love your videos!
Shelethia Tre'nae thank you! I wash my hair once a week. Normally on the weekends. I might was midweek if there’s a lot of product build up or if my hair needs more moisturizing
Beautiful lady with the good hair. I will celebrate the day my hair is half of yours, it looks so healthy and beautiful and long too😍😍😍😍
Aaayeeeee! I'm here! Notification squad! I often interchange the two methods. I use loc on wash day and lco when adding moisture midweek. I find that works for me
Monica Kalyonge that’s really smart!
@@roothie__ thank you! 😊
Not a bad idea. I must try. Thanks for sharing
@@setapartaay925 you're welcome. I hope it helps you out
I thought the “L” stood for “leave-in conditioner🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. Oops! I use the Melanin Haircare line. To style a spray a good amount of water on a small section of my hair then I apply her leave-in, her cream and then her oil and then the Mane Choice orchid gel and then I two strand twist. My twists stay for 4-6 weeks👍🏾...I usually retwist/remoisturize at somepoint in that duration. Your hair looks good either way💛
Liquid based leave in falls within the L.
I thought so too. Thought she’s use the leave in on BOTH sides and the twist elongating cream and oil flip-flop on each side 🤷🏽♀️
Eniye Mission So I guess my question is am I doing too much by doing water and then leave-in if they both are “L’s” because essentially I have 5 layers of gunk of my hair (4 w/o counting water)?
@@JessicaSmith-ie7cm I do the same. I say, If it works for you then continue on with it. I use water and a liquid based leave in, but I don't count that as my L.
Hey, your hair has grown sooo much, wow! Great video, always wondered which method was good for my hair. Love naptural85!
Sis your shrinkage is tooooo real 😭😭😭😭
Uh huh,that hair,that hair, the bounce is killing me softly.
Okay length!!! I definitely need to figure out my porosity too!
Feranmi Motoni let me know if you do and we can compare results lol
Haha! You’re so funny! “Am I saying that right?” My hair is the total opposite , it likes LCO. Granted I never really tried the LOC, Lolol. But as you’re describing how your hair feels in LOC is how my hair feels when I do the LCO. Anyway, lovely results 😭 truly makes me want to experiment more with my natural hair than the regular twists I do. Hahah! Thank you Ruth ☺️💗
Same! I’ve tried LOC and LCO and my hair likes LCO better but I think I have high porosity hair so that extra time I get to lock in moisture with the oil because the cream still has it moist is good? Idk I just know my hair looks really good and moisturized when I do the LCO as opposed to LOC.
Hahaha I kept confusing myself throughout the whole thing. But thank you! You should experiment more! I will say though, sleeping with those rods in was no fun Lol
Thanks for this detailed video! I use LOC I need to do this experiment. Thanks again.
Omg that lip colour! Love it! Which one is it?
I’ve done both but never paid attention to drying time. Beautiful results.
Love you girl. You are so pretty and your hair is goals. Sending you love from England ❤
Georgia Anderson ❤️❤️❤️
Missed you and your gorgeous hair.
True, LCO takes long to dry
Your hair is beautiful! How do you maintain this style? I'd love to see a week in your hair and how you maintain looks/moisture.
exclusiveop thank you! I’m able to wear it like this for about two-three days by just wearing a large bonnet at night. Then I throw it in a puff/bun. That’s a great video idea though!
It depends of the oil.. melanin oil has mostly sealant oils in it the first ingredient is almond oil that's a sealent it goes on top but it has avocado oil that's a mix between moisturizing and sealent.. a good oil to use is oilive or argan oil for the loc method it will look good and feel good..
Like the results
Very interisting
Beautiful hair ,love it! My hair is low porosity and I have been working with the LCO method.I'll try the LOC to see whether its able to retain more moisture.
Besides that am curious on whether you've ever hit a growth plateau stage during your natural hair care journey.If so ,how did you deal with it?
@@FelicityBelle Thanks for the tip.I'll definitely try it!
Verona Kibe I haven’t noticeably hit a plateau. But I would say, examine the products you’re using, keep a clean and healthy scalp, and look into your hairs moisture/protein balance.
Second question: (Lol) when applying the oil directly after your water did you feel your hair was more prone to breakage? I would imagine applying oil alone to wet hair just wouldn’t be enough to penetrate the shafts of my 4c hair.. like how do you get it to just not sit on the surface? I hope this makes sense. Both methods look GREAT on your hair!
Shelethia Tre'nae Moni haven’t noticed more breakage. The oil is meant to seal the moisture from the water and the leave in just adds an additional layer of moisture. My hair seems to absorb moisture well from using this method
Hey miss you 😘!! Ok
So pretty. Love it. How many flexi rods did you use and what size are they? Thanks.
Kim L thank you! I used 30😪, the pack says 0.63” in diameter
Roothie Patootie Thanks Roothie.
If Nap85 method works for you chances your hair is high porosity like hers but interested to know your results. I use a butter , oils just seat on my low porosity hair. So LCB for me.😁
Saaaaaame sis !!!! I’ve realized I’m a butter girl !! Do you like using true butters ? Or do you like/use butters that are made from the different companies
@@JRD72 I make my own butter mix the prime ingredient being organic Sheabutter. These days I have time so I went back to natural butters, cleansing and deep conditioning methods.
❤❤❤
LCO method. Wouldn’t have it no other way lol. Especially since I am High Porosity.
I notice... u put a product on... then u wait & then put the other product on top... most videos... I see ppl putting the product right on top after the other without waiting... I wonder if that is wat also effect the results... 🤔
The lco looks a little better for me
I hate when they stop to dance. Just get on with the video. So frustrating.
