Tonya, Wondeful article and just what I needed!

As Diana said before me I will be re-reading and studying to figure out why my easy to maintain and moisturize hair 4a/b hair has become overly porous, thin, damaged and protein reliant and all without the use of heat or relaxers.

Thanks for helping me take a big step in becoming knowledgeable in the care of my hair.

Umm this is an amazing article with so much helpful information.

I’m just curious as to the reason why a picture of refined shea butter was used as an example of regular shea butter. If you see shea butter with that pure white color it means that it was extracted in a why that totally changes the chemical composition of it and depletes all of the natural beneficial properties. Ladies do not pick up shea butter that has a pure white color. You might as well just slather Vaseline on your hair.
