BUTTERS ARE GREAT FOR THE WINTER!!

When I say butters I speak of shea butter, avocado butter, etc.  I prefer to seal with butter in the winter instead of oils because of the harsh winters that we tend to have in Philadelphia.  Butters (to me) are heavier than oils so I feel like they protect my hair better.  I'm going to give you a list of butters that you can try out so you can transform dry, brittle, hair into healthy, nourished hair!!

Shea Butter

Shea butter is fat extracted from the African Shea-Karite tree.  Shea butter provides nourishment for hair and skin.  This butter can help shield the hair by locking or concealing moisture.  It has the ability to repair the hair and protect the hair against weather damage, UV rays, and soothes an irritated scalp.

Murumuru Butter

Murumuru butter comes from the nuts of the Astrocaryum Murumuru tree that grows in the Amazon basins.  It's highly emollient, moisturizing, film forming, and naturally glossy.  Great for dry skin and dry damaged hair.  It's natural gloss, vitamins, and minerals gives your hair a nice sheen. It is found in many of the moisturizing hair products that we love.

Mango Butter

Mango butter is made from the mango seed.  It has emollient properties which is great for softening the hair and sealing in moisture.  Mango butter can also restore flexibility to hair and reduce degeneration of hair cells.  Great for the skin also!!

Avocado Butter

Avocado Butter is made from avocado fruit oil through a hydrogenation process which yields soft, yellow-green butter. It conditions hair and scalp. Heals dry damaged skin and hair. Reduces wrinkles, age spots, marks, scarring, and can also be used as a heat protectant.

Kokum Butter

Kokum butter is very similar to cocoa butter because of it's uniform triglyceride composition.  It's better to combine this butter with other butters and oils because it's such a hard butter.
