Curlfriends!! Thank you for watching this week's video! Need more Curly Chemistry resources in your life, here it is!! Ebooks, 1:1 coaching, and of course the infamous Hydrating Herbal Hair Tea Rinse! curlychemistry.com/ 💕
As a teen with high porosity 4b/c hair, I have been using Liquid (water), Cream (creme of nature leave in) and grease (blue magic castor oil) or just a very thick oil like castor oil on my hair for years now, and it's the only way my hair stays moisturized all week even after stretching it. Monthly protein treatments have been a must for me as well. I make sure to detangle beforehand with a conditioner first, rinse it out & wash my hair in twists, then apply a protein treatment (the originals hair Mayonaise) so I can just comb the protein treatment into each section quickly and not leave it for too long. Not doing this in the past, and just detangling with the protein treatment has led me to leave it on for way too long in some sections since I have very dense hair. Detangling with conditioner-> braid/twist hair -> washing my hair -> applying protein treatment in each section & being able to comb it through quickly has had my hair feeling unreal and I have retained a lot of length especially over the last few months
My high porosity hair air dries within 30 minutes. I was shocked when you said 2-5 HOURS. What works for me is Liquid and oil. Liquid, Leave in, Oil. Or Liquid, Oil Leave-in. My leave in is made using lighter oils, distilled water essential rose oil and essential peppermint oil blends and aloe but I seal with pomade. My hair is super soft afterwards which is saying something because I have micro locs. I don’t know if this is typical of high porosity hair but my scalp is sensitive. No cream on the hair because that makes its way onto my scalp and I wind up washing everything out that I just put in or scooping it up and onto my hair and taking an antihistamine!
This LCG method is the truth! Stumbled on it through trial and error and I have length after 3 years. Really appreciate your channel Ms. Tonya. Blessings to you ❤.
What works for my high porosity hair is a castor oil rinse after deep conditioning. My hair was so dry after I went natural I almost went back to relaxers. I saw this recommendation on You Tube and it saved my natural hair journey. I've been doing it for almost a decade and love it!
@@minnitreez333 Yes... I let it sit for like 2 minutes and then rinse with warm water until the hair doesn't feel oily. Seals the moisture in beautifuly.
@@cjsmomom I use a pump dispenser for the oil and I use 1 pump per quarter section. My hair is medium density and shoulder length in its curly state. Hope that helps.
I have been using the LCG method for the past month and my hairstylist commented today that my hair looks very healthy. I could have put the grinch out of business with how wide my smile was 😌 The only thing is that with grease I'm forced to wash my hair more frequently to avoid build up.
@CurlyChemistry You are a blessing to the natural hair community. This video has touched on exactly what I needed to hear to finally gain length retention. It has been a consistent regimen of the LCG method that is FINALLY allowing my hair to grow since my hair journey from 2015 when I transitioned from relaxers. Since September I literally had to stop using any oils or butters because they did NOTHING for my 4b high porosity hair. Even when I would use a creamy leave in and then avocado and olive oils my hair would still remain dry. I had to literally go back to good old hair grease after my leave in and had to stop using gels (unless I'm doing a slick back ponytail), and now in the last few months I am finally getting hang time to where my hair shakes when I move my head. I also realized my hair tangles too much from wash and gos and the heat stretching my wash and gos was also damaging my hair even more. I now just do the LCG method and do flat twists and nothing else and can even go out in humidity and keep my hairstyle. GREASE was the COMPLETE GAME CHANGER. You give great natural hair advice. I also saw your video about keeping hair moisturized in the winter and it has been working great for me in this cold weather.
I use LCO, sometimes LCB (butter). One thing that had changed my hair game is adding glycerine to my aloe Vera spray. I use it every 2-3 days or whenever I feel my hair is dry
I learned that protein treatments are very helpful for me as a high porosity girl. This summer I came across a leave in or rinse out protein conditioning treatment. All summer, I used it pretty much as a leave in every few days for my wash n go. It was so good to me because it gave me a curl style that I enjoy without the crunch/dryness of a gel and the added benefit of building up my hair. I used it because I learned through your channel that maybe I was drying my hair out using clarifying shampoos. You suggested sulfate free shampooing instead so I switched to that and I also wanted something to counteract the damage I was doing with clarifying shampoo. After using the protein treatment consistently over four months I notice now that my hair is no longer dull, light reflects off my hair (I say this because I literally forgot what shiny hair is supposed to be) and the feeling of my hair is less dry and brittle (it has substance). Now since it is fall I’m more so focused on moisturizing with creams and oils and using the protein treatment just as a rinse out conditioner instead (I just don’t want to have wet hair since the weather is unpredictably cold some times). But so far this is what helps me.
*1. I go between medium to high porosity and I do Liquid/Cream +Gel/Grease because I live in a highly hot and humid industrial city and this last for days.* *2. I do Reconstructor bi-weekly and Two-Step every 8-10 weeks* *3. Nothing goes on my scalp because she doesn't like it.*
I alternate between LCO and LCB, but my fine low-density hair cannot handle heavy oils and grease, so I stick to butters. The game-changer for me is keeping my hair in twists 99% of the time to retain moisture for longer. I also do protein treatments monthly, and moisturize with aloe vera juice + grapeseed/ avocado oil between wash days.
Definitely the CO method every 2 days but using the LCO method as a prepoo. I’m so scared with protein treatments so I get them at the last wash before and first wash after a relaxer.
I use henna and my hair loves it…wash day always consists of a hot oil and massage night before or slit then double cleanse, deep condish , the blow out with round brush and put in two braids for protective style, refresh with rose water a leave in and a oil and sometimes I’ll do a bonding treatment but I always pour organic Amla oil to my ends and soak them, in the morning my ends look and feel like freshly cut ends😍
Hi Tonya! I've been doing the LOC method for a few years now! I've been using your tea rinse as well! It does make my hair softer and I feel like my products are preforming so much better! Thanks again!💙💙💙💙
I am high porosity and I am curious about your opinion on pure Aloe Vera as a Leave -In? I will grate the aloe leaf with a cheese grater (the fine side) then strain it to get the pulp out. Once it dries which is only a few hours I follow up with my shea butter mix (shea, Dax grease which is an all natural hair grease and my oil mix) this keep my hair moisturized for about 3-5 days. If I do need to moisturize I have a fenugreek and rose water spray I use. But I am about to try banana peels soaked in water next
Design Essentials Chebe Prewash Hair Masque & Leave In Conditioner . oh Yeah, Thanks for the advice for the dry scalp I just purchased some Grapeseed oil.
So I am relaxed with waist length hair and I use a mousse leave in from Joico Kpak line, then cream from either Aunt Jessie or As I am So much moisture and then a combination of jojoba, pumpkin seed and almond oil on my ends. I wash with moisturizing and protein Joico and Mizani products and do a light protein once a month and a protein treatment every 8 weeks. I relax twice a year, do a protein before and do an Olaplex treatment after for two washes and a protein treatment immediately after. I do not need to add moisture to my hair outside of bi-weekly washes but I add a little oil to the very ends a couple times a week if I wear my hair down.
Sofia i am very interested in your comment. please tell me do u follow the olaplex by a protein treatment on the same day or a week after the olaplex treatment ?
Thanks sista hair care! I have fine hair texture but, high porosity so I always end my moisturizing regimen w/aloe in my oil base. Do not like creams due to buildup. I use all natural products on my locs 😊💕
Neva let your niece tell you what your porosity is 😂I KNEW I was high porosity! Thanks Tonya! Fortunately I have been doing exactly what you recommended but I do my protein treatments quarterly. I alternate between oils and grease for sealing ❤✌️
I would LOVE yo get your opinion on asian brands such as &honey, apparently they have a good selection depending on porosity and the hydration/slip is pretty high, but I didn't see many reviews for type 3/4 hair, would love your take on them!!
High porposity girl here: I'm approaching all the tips. LCG and Aphogee protein treatments have made a difference for me. I am curious about a Keratin treatment. Can you make a video about some information about Keratin Treatment or Brazilian blowout type Treatments
Can you do a review regarding the science between hylloronic acid for high porosity hair. I've been using lorreals conditioner and cer100 as a deep conditioner which makes my super high porosity hair feel like butter but I want to make sure it's not raising the cuticle
I am in the middle of having high porosity hair and normal porosity. I never know which one I should choose. When I look at my hair strand under a microscope, the outer layer looks smooth. When I do the hair strand in the glass of water, it floats midway in the glass of water. My hair absorbs water quick and drys quickly on the top of my head, and the bottom hair dries normally. It's crazy to me. I can moisturize my hair, and it will last 5 to 7 days without needing to reapply more moisture to it.
I always do the prepoo coconut oil on wash days. My moisturizing, buttery cream is Twist Elongating Style Cream by Melanin which I use on wash day and the in-between days for moisturizing my hair shafts. I have found that I need to avoid glycerin as a Top 5 ingredient in any hair product because its effect on my hair is just too unpredictable in causing frizz.
@@kimboldingreyes3284 LCO: ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion or As I am Double butter, Unlay Hair Oil Spray; Light Protein: Vitale Olive Oil Hair Mayo; Intense Protein Treatment: ORS Hair Mayo or Joico K-Pak Reconstructing Conditioner.
I am beginning to think I have high porosity or maybe medium porosity hair. I used to believe it was low porosity due to the sink/float test but I think that test is inaccurate. It's interesting to find out that high porosity heads have dry scalps. Anyway, my hair does pretty well with liquid, creams, butter or liquid and buttery creams.
How do I find out what type of hair I have? I have curly hair but not sure the porosity I have. Please any help is appreciated on how I can find this out. Thank you.
Hello, Im new and learning the process of using “leave in conditioner” If im using a spray how many spray is appropriate? This also applies to heat protection I have thick 4c hair.
Nothing is working for me. I’m here to learn. I do know LCO does not work for me longer than a day so I need LCG, I’ll pick up some blue magic this weekend. Thanks for the video! YT didn’t tell me, but I appreciate the email I got letting me know about this video!
My hair is very high porosity Dries super fast Always has No chemicals, color, or heat use When I use oil or grease as the last layer, my hair feels very hard. I HAVE to do cream last It's the only way my hair feels even slightly soft. I have to repeat this the day after wash day, then every other day until next wash day(the following week) I know we are all different I have tried the other ways for years When I finally applied cream as the last step, I was shocked at the difference in my hair I can't believe it took me so long to figure this out I just thought, since everyone else says, apply oil or grease, last, then it must be the only way I could not understand why my hair was always so hard, no matter what moisturizing treatments I did My monthly protein is always followed by moisture, but it was still hard 🤦🏾
I’ve been doing lco for years but def haven’t been doing it every 2 days and often notice plenty of breakage by wash day so should do it more. It’s just so time consuming 😩. Question- I havent used hair grease in ages. Would a thick butter give the same results or should I look for a grease to try?
One day I’ll take the time to figure out what type of hair I have far as porosity. My granddaughter is a teen and I mention about her using grease because her hair seem to be so dry
My hair is dry by the time I moisturize my flesh and brush my teeth like it was never wet let alone hours😂😂😂 I lco I don’t know a grease without petroleum 😢
Thanks for the video….. for my high porosity type 4 …the LOCG PLUS flaxseed gel has been working for me ❤ and I do green beauty protein treatment mix that in with my favorite conditioner and ACV rinse has helped my hair old on to moisture.
The number one game changer for me with my ultra-fine, high porosity( hair dries in an hour) hair and sensitive scalp Daily use water-based hair protein mist, moisture lotion and moisture cream (US$0.25/UK£0.50 coin size) and water-based scalp mist from my trichologists. Once I do that and wrap my hair and scalp all the time, they stay calm and behave. I only add a little silicone to my ends in winter. My scalp reacts badly to pure raw oils, butters and grease.
I'm using creme of nature argon oil shampoo, shea and mango leave in conditioner from creme of nature, pink oil moisturizer lotion grease or castor oil to keep my hair motorized for the 2 days😊. It's working so far good. I'm living in humidity climate and work in AC.🇬🇾 😊

Finally a video specifically for us
Lcg and protein treatment every month. Tested and proven to work for me. 🙏
Liquid, Cream and Gel right? Oh Grease? I also add Gel to mine because I live in a highly hot and humid industrial city 👌🏿
@ liquid, cream and grease. I live in the Caribbean ant it extremely hot and humid this year.
Yes!!! My hair loves the LCG method. I also add protein once a month 😊
I'ma try it
What type of liquid, cream & grease do you use?
Great info. Just wanted to add that I always spritz my scalp with a little water before adding any oil. Never on dry scalp

Keeping my high porosity hair covered. It helps retain moisture.
Thanks for the tips.
Your hair looks 🔥💥🎉, Tonya 😁

Hair grease changed everything for me. Even living in a sub tropical, high humidity area it keeps my hair from shrinking. LCG for me!

Hello
After I do the LCG method do I than go in with my mousse, curling cream or my hair gel for styling?
Do you have any suggestions for cream that can be used with grease?
where would be a good place to implement a holding gel to help define your curls during the LCO/LCG method?
Hello,
Im new and learning the process of using “leave in conditioner”
If im using a spray how many spray is appropriate? This also applies to heat protection
I have thick 4c hair.
I incorporated grease into my lco method
Nothing is working for me. I’m here to learn. I do know LCO does not work for me longer than a day so I need LCG, I’ll pick up some blue magic this weekend. Thanks for the video! YT didn’t tell me, but I appreciate the email I got letting me know about this video!
I have high porosity microlocs so I don’t even know if I can use grease but I do have some from my loose natural days
My hair is very high porosity
Dries super fast
Always has
No chemicals, color, or heat use
When I use oil or grease as the last layer, my hair feels very hard.
I HAVE to do cream last
It's the only way my hair feels even slightly soft.
I have to repeat this the day after wash day, then every other day until next wash day(the following week)
I know we are all different
I have tried the other ways for years
When I finally applied cream as the last step, I was shocked at the difference in my hair
I can't believe it took me so long to figure this out
I just thought, since everyone else says, apply oil or grease, last, then it must be the only way
I could not understand why my hair was always so hard, no matter what moisturizing treatments I did
My monthly protein is always followed by moisture, but it was still hard 🤦🏾
Oh okay cool. My hair is in individual braids now for 4wks but I do my hair regimen even though the braids.
Lcg work for me in summer
I’ve been doing lco for years but def haven’t been doing it every 2 days and often notice plenty of breakage by wash day so should do it more. It’s just so time consuming 😩. Question- I havent used hair grease in ages. Would a thick butter give the same results or should I look for a grease to try?
I watched an old video of yours where you apply your conditioner on dry hair. Do you still keep to that?
One day I’ll take the time to figure out what type of hair I have far as porosity.
My granddaughter is a teen and I mention about her using grease because her hair seem to be so dry
This was so helpful. I don’t have high porosity here, but I felt like I learned a lot and you explain things so well.
I need to find a protein treatment that won't irritate my skin. I'm using fragrance free products.
lol I don’t have any grease and I haven’t used since a child
My hair is dry by the time I moisturize my flesh and brush my teeth like it was never wet let alone hours😂😂😂 I lco I don’t know a grease without petroleum 😢
Petroleum is the best for moisture. However, you have to clarify once a month.
@ I was worried about the carcinogen aspect of the product. I use to use it daily on my body. The softest I’ve ever been lol

Daily use water-based hair protein mist, moisture lotion and moisture cream (US$0.25/UK£0.50 coin size) and water-based scalp mist from my trichologists. Once I do that and wrap my hair and scalp all the time, they stay calm and behave.
I only add a little silicone to my ends in winter. My scalp reacts badly to pure raw oils, butters and grease.
