Field notes
The project organizes loc-product testing around a single tester, one head of 4C locs, and a fixed category-specific test window rather than a broad routine guide. Its scoring separates residue, week-long moisture, styling hold, scalp response, and price-per-ounce value. The homepage says the first batch remains under test, so the site currently presents the protocol and editorial structure more fully than its completed review archive.
