This is raw shea butter used in the LOC method on the afro as the sealant to lock in moisture after the application of our pure Jamaican Black Castor Oil. Shea butter’s anti-inflammatory properties might also help reduce redness and scalp irritation by providing healing effects without clogging the pores. Additionally, as a natural product, it’s safe to use on all types of hair, even hair that’s damaged, dry, or color treated.
