yayyyyy Shea Butter!

My boyfriend must love me! He just bought be me some Shea Butter and I'm beyond excited to try it.
The game plan is to do some two-strand twists tomorrow or Monday.  Picture updates when I get them!

PS- this means I have to try to some Shea Butter recipes :)

(Fox's) Shea Butter Conditioning Cream
1 part Shea Butter (1 Tablespoon)
1 part Conditioner (1 Tablespoon)
1/2 part Oil (1/2 Tablespoon)
Make sure Shea Butter is soft. This can easily be done by setting it in the sun. Mix with an equal part of conditioner. I prefer to use natural conditioners (Aubrey Organics) so no chemicals will effect the properties of the Shea Butter. Add in a half part oil, like jojoba, meadowfoam seed oil, or Monoi, and mix well. Allow to cool and harden. If the mixture tends to separate, stir a few times during the cooling process and it should stay well mixed.
Apply a pea sized amount to your ends. This may feel slightly sticky at first, but it will not leave your hair sticky.
