Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Shampoo 13 oz / 384 ml - For Dry, Damaged & Natural Hair
Raw shea butter is what the brand is named after, and this is the shampoo where it is used at its heaviest. It is the one to reach for when hair is dry enough that a normal wash leaves it worse than before.
Sea kelp is the ingredient doing the cleaning. It carries trace minerals and clears product residue, so the formula can stay sulphate-free without giving up on actually washing the hair. Argan oil sits alongside the shea butter and takes the edge off the dryness.
Expect a low lather. That is normal for a sulphate-free shampoo, and it is worth washing twice on the first pass if your hair is heavily coated, which is worth weighing against the 13 oz / 384 ml bottle. It is the heaviest wash in the line, so it is not the one for a scalp that goes greasy quickly.
Aimed at type 3b through 4c natural hair that is dry, damaged or both.

Application tips
Dilute it. Half shampoo and half water in an applicator bottle turns a thick, low-lathering formula into something that actually reaches a scalp under dense hair.
Part in rows, squeeze it along each parting, and massage with the pads of your fingers.
Rinse until the hair stops feeling coated, then get into a conditioner before it starts to shrink up. This is a heavy wash and it does not do well left sitting on bare, drying hair.
Results
A wash that leaves dry hair softer than it found it, which is not the usual trade with a shampoo. The scalp is clean, the lengths are not stripped, and the tightness that normally follows does not turn up.
Hair takes conditioner better afterwards. On a greasy scalp it will feel like too much; on genuinely dry hair it is the right amount.
