Butters and creams do different jobs. A cream spreads and disappears, while a butter stays where you put it and keeps working for longer. That makes it the right choice for ends, for parts, and for hair that dries out within hours of leaving the shower.

This is a rich one, sold in a 236.8g tub and made for curly and coily textures rather than for everything. It melts down between the palms into something spreadable, then sets slightly on the hair, sealing moisture in behind it. Elasticity is the practical result: hair that stretches instead of snapping when you handle it.

Frizz drops, curl definition holds longer, and the shine is the soft kind rather than the greasy kind.

It is billed as a daily dressing, which is fair on type 3b to 4c hair. On looser curls it will be too much used every day, so keep it to the ends, or save it for wash days.

Application tips

Scoop with the back of a fingernail rather than digging in with a whole hand. It looks like too little and it is not.

Rub it between the palms until it turns clear and loose, press it into the ends first, then work upward only as far as the hair still feels dry. Partings take a smear along the line. On braids and twists, seal each one as you finish it rather than coating the style afterwards.

Results

Ends stop drying out by the afternoon. The butter sits on the outside and slows the water leaving, so hair stays supple into a third day and handles without that dry crackle.

Frizz settles and the curl keeps its shape longer. Shine is soft and matte-leaning rather than greasy. Overdo it and fine hair looks separated and loaded, so the ends are where it belongs.
