For thoes of you that use shea butter, would you say it works better on relaxed, or natural hair?  What is a good site, or store to get it.

Also,  If any of you do two strand flat twist, do you find they work better on wet or dry hair?

thanks!.

i use shealoe butter on my natural hair and i love it. Couldn't provide you any guidance on relaxer hair as i have not had a perm since 2003. I never use it on twists- i use it as a nitely moisturizer but i do know a few ladies on line that use it for twists and works well for them. I purchase my shealoe butter at www.fromnaturewithlove.com  but you can also purchase it at www.crabapplesoapfactory.com   I hope this helps.

I use it on my relaxed hair and i have good results. Especially after using heat with it, my hair feels very soft and not weighed down.

Carmeldiva, you DO have good sites.

Finally got my shealoe butter, (i know it hasnt been that long. I'm just impatient.) But I washed and I used it on my scalp, hair, and especially my ends, and air dryed. My hair came out so soft and shiny I am in love I think!!!!
