Top 5 Hair Butter Recipes for Luscious Healthy Hair

Hair butters are the sisters of body butters that took the world by a storm for intense hydration and moisturizing for skin. Hair butters offer the same as body butters, but for the hair. Especially if you have curly hair, natural hair or dry frizzy hair, hair butters can transform your hair care game.

Many hair butters can be used as leave-in like this DIY Shea Butter Hair Butter Leave-In Conditioner, but the ones below are wash-out butters that are lighter, and I love using them because of how I can easily infuse my hair with the goodness of powerful natural ingredients like amla, moringa, hibiscus and more!
