Im still experimenting with LOC. This time I used the milk for leave in, coconut oil for oil and a tiny bit of shea smoothie for cream and it was too heavy, too much. Hair looks kind of stringy when I take it down. I got a new leave in conditioner that I am eager to try next time.
ALso, I have discovered something weird about peacock twists. Last time I cut my hair was thin ends yes, but also because I couldn't wear it up anymore. Even wearing it in a peacock twist I would start to get a knot on one side of my neck and get a bad headache. Well, this entire growing out time I have pretty much worn my hair in a cinnabun held with really nice sturdy claw clips. The other day I tried a peacock twist with a clip and within 30 minutes I had the knot in my neck! I took my hair down and put it back in the bun and it went away. So, for some reason the peacock twist pulls a neck muscle out of alignment? I dont' know, but it never occurred to me that something as benign as a peacock twist could cause me problems! I wish I had experimented more with buns before I cut my hair, but oh well. Thought I would share just in case anyone else has problems with the peacock twist down the road.
