LOC'ed Up, Bunned Up, and Ready to Go!

Quick update on Z's Double Buns with Cornrows and Twists Hairstyle:

She was over the whole double buns on day 2; I combined the two buns into one at the middle of her head. She was a much happier camper.
Wearing hooded coats significantly increased the frizz factor of her style. I need to find hair friendly head coverings to keep her head warm while minimizing friction and frizz against her hair.
We are traveling up North today to bring in the New Year with family, and it is going to be coooooold compared to our visit down South this past week. Therefore, I moisturized Z's hair using the LOC method to help combat the effects of the cold weather against her hair especially her ends. I:

moisturized her hair with my homemade moisturizing spritz
applied coconut oil to her hair focusing on her ends
applied Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie to her hair
applied a small amount of Castor Oil on her ends for extra protection

I bunned up her hair and tucked away her loose twists at the front of her hair to create a bang look while keeping her ends hidden.
I plan to do nothing much to her hair while we are on vacay except re-hydrate her hair if necessary using water and coconut oil. When we return this weekend, I may curl her loose twists with flexi rods for her to wear a curly twist out look for Church this Sunday.

I totally adore this hairstyle on her and love the fact that all her hair is up instead of down and rubbing against her clothes and coats. I truly want to stay in line with the December goals I set for Z's hair and finish the month (and year) off strong.
