Hair Care

Benefits Of Shea Butter

Butter is always the magic ingredient! Natural hair always needs special love and what better way to take care than Mother Nature’s Conditioner. It is extracted from the seeds of Shea-Karite tree native to East and West Africa, and is a boon for the people of this region. Not only has it given results for the skin, health and medicinal purposes but it is the best thing you can add to your hair care arsenal too.

The extra dry African hair, finds relief in the goodness of this butter. The curls have a hard time absorbing the natural sebum of the scalp and hence lack moisture. Adding Shea butter in your shampoo or conditioner makes up for that missing moisture without weighing down your hair.
The all-in-one conditioner softens the hair too. We all add water for moisture but what retains that moisture? Shea butter! Using Shea butter will add life to your dull strands and also repair those brittle dry ends, ultimately softening your kinks and waves.

Ultra-violet rays not only damage the skin but can have a negative impact on your curls too. Shea butter contains low SPF to help guard your mane from the harsh weather or even defy the heat of your styling tools.

Healthy roots lead to healthy hair. Your scalp needs nurturing and something that soothes the dryness. Possessing anti-inflammatory properties, Shea butter seeps easily into your scalp without clogging the pores and sending the moisture all the way from the roots to the ends. Not only is this good for dandruff but also ah-mazing for coloured, relaxed hair.

Since 90% of your selfie is perfect hair, we cannot emphasize enough on the importance of hair care. Check out these 3 Amazing DIY Masks Your Hair Will Thank You For.
