The LCO Method is one of my absolute favorites for stimulating healthy and moisturized hair. Whether your hair is natural or relaxed, you hair needs moisture in order to thrive. On your journey to keep your natural hair healthy and moisturized, you may have tried the LOC method. The LOC method stands for Liquid/Leave-In (L), then Oil (O), and Cream (C). While this hair care technique comes highly recommended from thousands of YouTubers for hydrating your hair, it may not actually give your hair the moisture it craves.
If that’s the case, you should consider using the LCO method instead (Liquid/Leave-In, then Cream and then Oil). It uses the same ingredients as the LOC Method, but in a different order. The LCO method works for both natural and relaxed hair and is guaranteed to keep your hair feeling moisturized longer. Below we will discuss how to use the LCO method to achieve moisturized hair.
Step 1: Leave-In Conditioner (L)
The reason you are here is because you are ready to grow healthy moisturized hair using the LCO method, right? The first thing you should do is get started with freshly washed and conditioned hair. After washing and conditioning your hair, you will need to mist your hair with a leave-in product (where water is the first ingredient) or plain water. I find that leave-in sprays or water work better than leave-in creams, for this method. Sprays tend to be lighter on the hair and work together better when layering additional products on top. The purpose of this step is to get the hair hydrated.
Step 2: Styling Cream (C)
Now that your hair is fully hydrated with a leave-in conditioner, you can take things up a notch and apply your hair cream. While there are plenty of hair creams to try, it’s essential to use a product formulated with nourishing and moisturizing ingredients that don’t provide a heavy feel. Depending on the style you are going for the cream could be a moisturizing cream or a styling cream (which has hold).
Step 3: Oil (O)
You’re at the finish line! Oils actually repel moisture, so it’s important that this is the last step to ensure that the moisture from the cream can penetrate the follicle. Seal in your moisture with the help of a sealing oil, such as the Voice of Hair PureFix Elixir. This lightweight oil serum adds shine with a smooth finish to keep your hair hydrated for longer. Apply four to five drops of hair oil to the palm of your hands, distribute throughout and style as desired. Now, you’ve provided your hair with plenty of hydration so that you can get away with moisturizing every few days, without your hair feeling dry in-between.
We recommend using the Nourish and Quench Bundle that includes an amazing shampoo, conditioner, leave-in cream, and oil to apply the LCO method with effectiveness.
You are now one step closer to getting rid of dry hair! With spring being just around the corner, it may be time to consider some cute protective styles.

You still have not ans my question how long before I see results
Hello Corretta!
That is a great question! Because we don’t use any chemicals in our product you will definitely see healthier, stronger hair but only if you use it consistently along with scalp massages. Since hair grows on average ½” per month it’s very difficult to see visible results until you use for at least 2 months, although we have several customers who see growth sooner. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] ?

Hello,
Any product suggestions on moisturizing creams and leave-in sprays for this method?
Thank you.
I want to order this. I have the hair oil, Is it better to use this with heat?
Hello Shonna!
You can use the oil as a hot oil treatment by heating the oil in separate container and apply the heated oil to your scalp/hair and covering your hair with a plastic cap/bag for about 15-20 minutes before washing it out! However, it is optional. You do not have to use it as a hot oil treatment. You can simply apply the oil to your hair/scalp using the LCO method!

How do I get the LCO
Ladies I have all 4 products. You will get better results you’re looking for sticking with these products instead mixing other brands. That’s just my opinion my hair is better than it has ever been growing from a full lost of hair from chemo and so much softer.
