I've limited the use of shea butter in my hair for quite some time. However, I'm still using it faithfully on my skin; but as a sealer. I use it on just out of the shower, dripping wet skin, and then I air dry. I do the same on my face.

Shea butter doesn't agree with my hair when used on dry hair, it's just too heavy and results in build up. But now I add a small piece (melted) to my deep conditioner and it feels wonderful. I'm so glad I've found a use for it.

I also use on my face like you.

I use my shea butter mix on my skin as well as hair...its best for me when my hair is wet, i havent tried it on dry hair....

Thanks for posting this video SisterBoyd.

I'm going to cut & paste this video link to ask our resident chemist - dajewel her opinion on shea butter.

I use shea butter in combination with my leave in and other oils.

Very informative. I would love to hear what Dajewel has to day about it.

Thanks for the video. This is exactly what I was asking about in the other thread...many hair products claim the shea butter is a moisturizer, but I always thought that butters and oils were the same...sealants.

Thanks a bunch.

I would to know what the properties are as well.

I also completely agree with her I always used it as a sealer
