Review (5/5): This blend is perfect for my hair
I bought this product for my 3C/4A natural hair. I've always been skeptical of butters because my hair tends to be oily in parts (as many naturals report, I have more than 1 hair texture on my head). I bought this with low expectations, just to add a butter to my regimen. I've been a conditioner, styling product, gel girl who loves wash n' gos always. I tried this last night for a braid out and I was absolutely shocked at the level of moisture and shine that my hair had this morning. I admit, I was totally a non-believer, but if you're on the fence definitely try it. This blend is perfect for my hair! It is not a whipped butter, so it is hard as a ROCK, but I just dutifully jammed my finger in and got a dime sized amount that I rubbed vigorously between my hands until it warmed up and became a liquid/oil. I distributed it between my palms onto approximately 4" sections of my hair (I have a LOT of hair, so it was divvied into approximately 6 sections) and then brushed with my denman brush (I had previously detangled with my wide toothed comb and of course I was doing this on SLIGHTLY dampened hair). I then braided my hair and went to bed. When I took it out this morning, my hair was shiny, bouncy and defined. Additionally, there was none of that greasy feel that I've gotten from trying heavier oils like castor or jojoba alone. I live in a dry, DRY state, so having a product that both adds moisture and seals (apparently: Please don't quote me on this because I'm not a naturalistA, just a chick who has been natural forever and is super lazy about varying her routine) is awesome. My hair feels and looks amazing. LOVE IT!!!
