I've been buying mostly Shea Moisture products for years, but I ordered some raw shea butter and mixed it up with some coconut oil and some jojoba oil yesterday. I'm not proud, I'll use Blue Magic on my hair in a pinch, but I used my new mix last night and it was soft as can be, I even ended up using it instead of my moisturizer, too. My mom called me a curandera, she said, "You're brewing now." :grin2:
My mom has Primary Progressive Aphasia, it's a form of early dementia, so she has a hard time getting her words out and when she does it's often very random. That caught me off guard and made me laugh out loud. My bro and SIL were there and last year I had mixed him up some eucalyptus and sweet almond oil because he wanted some Vicks when he had a cold, so they found it hilarious too (once my bro explained to her what a cuarandera is, she's all white and doesn't know any Spanish words at all.)
