So I've been mixing my own whipped shea butter since going natural (for over five years now), and it has gone many a transformation, usually for the better. Below is my latest recipe that I use it to seal my hair after a fresh wash and condition. (I actually eyeball the portions but will do my best to give you actual ratios based off memory.)
Ingredients:
� cup shea butter
� cup aloe vera gel
1 tbsp safflower oil (or oil of your choice)
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp grapeseed oil
1 tsp honey
Instructions:
Break the shea butter into small pieces and place in a bowl. Using a hand mixer, whip the shea butter until fluffy and the chunks are gone. (If your shea butter is too hard, melt it only slightly to soften it a bit.) Add in the remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly with the hand mixer. Finito!
