Our Take

A blended hair oil designed specifically to seal in moisture after your water and cream steps. The castor seed oil, jojoba seed oil, and olive oil base closely mimics the scalp's natural sebum — meaning it absorbs well without sitting greasily on the surface. The addition of wheat germ and coconut oil adds vitamin E and fatty acid support. Apply a small amount to damp hair after Smooth (or after Sheen and Smooth in the LOC method), working from roots to ends with attention to tips. Also works as a styling finisher for removing twist-outs, or a shine booster on dry hair. Best for 3a–4c hair; thicker patterns get the most benefit from castor oil's sealing properties. Protein-free.

How to Use

Apply Seal to damp hair after moisturising as the oil (O) step in the LOC or LCO method. Start at the roots and work down to the ends, paying particular attention to tips. For everyday shine, apply a few drops to fingertips before styling or when removing twists to reduce frizz.
