  • Hello there.... I was wondering where you get your pure Shea Butter from?

  • Where do you purchase your Shea Butter from please? :)

  • Can you please inbox me some good sites for the shea butter? :o)

  • How many vitamin e did u use? And did u melt it or something?

  • @marib16

    What Ido is I simply snip or cut in it and squeeze the oil out :o)

  • A couple of questions:

    1. You put the mix into a bag for what reason? Was it to squeeze the Shea mix into the jars?

    2. Where did you get the pure shea block?

    3. What was the brand of that Coconut Oil?

    4. Where'd you get that blender?

    :-)

  • Girl you are one mess of a scientist, lol. Hope that oil doesn't spill on you ever. I would be scared that it would spill so I would set it back on the counter ASAP. :)

  • Wearing your African stuff. I like! I like!

  • Can I also get the website info to purchase the shea butter you use?

  • Hi loved the vid, I would also like to know where I can buy the raw shea butter from too please? i tried on ebay but they all did not look authentic. thanks x

  • @ButtahscotchKisses look in the description box, i've just posted some links :)

  • @ButtahscotchKisses it didn't work go look in your messages

  • I followed this mixture and I have to say that since using it my hair has been sooooo happy, thanks for sharing.

  • @welsh1969 oh your welcome :) you made me happy

  • I like your mixture and plan to try it on my locs. Love your accent.

  • if the shea butter is yellow ( or dead like you said ) is it still good for the hair ? is it still useable ? will it harm the hair ? or should i just throw it away .

  • @StreetRaeRae omg! i didn't say DEAD lol i said dyed ... it's completely fine to use babe

  • @FusionofCultures oh, lol , okaye thanks, but mine is chopped up as well, i had it for some years now .

  • you are so gorg!!!!!!

  • @TheeMislolsmileyface *blushes* thank you

  • pound shop aka dollar store lol, love it! btw you are my motivation for my 20 month transition goal :)

  • Your dress is beautiful. Ive had my grandmother bring me dressings from Liberia but never this pretty.Is there any way possible I can find out where you got it? Thanks so much! xoxo-Newbie

  • @MsMayaBrowne thank you :) this was sent to me from Ghana.

  • @MsMayaBrowne Hey fellow Liberian! when it comes to fashion in Liberia, the tailors and seamstresses are not really up on what's modern in the world of fashion, so in order to get what you want, you must either send a picture or draw it. And pray that what they make you will be similar to what you asked for. From what I've heard, the clothing made in Nigeria and Ghana are much better made and much more fashionable than that in Liberia. I can attest to the more fashionable.

  • @liznewark Oh thank you for the feed back. I wouldnt really know where to send my ideas off to but I definetly love the style and I wish I could get a hold of some clothing. =)

  • I would love to have some of this I am 5 months post big chop and have every one against me...but I refuse to throw in the towel due to negativity. Please help, I love all of your videos BTW . XOXO

  • I LOVE how u make this...I want some

  • Amazon sells the ivory cream type...I'm going to get some asap

  • where did u get the shea from Ghana?

  • @Myrlourah from Ghana

  • that doesn't leave your hair greassy? the shea itself and the coconut oil is greasy. I bought a small container of shea and its yellow i wondered because i know shea butter is ivory. thanks for the vid

  • @Myrlourah no neither of them leave my hair greasy ... i've been using both for many years now and god knows i hate greasy hair lol

  • OMG.... can I have some!!!!! that looks amazing...

  • Hey,

    I was just checking out your channel and you got great videos. I got a site that may helps people cure herpes naturally! Check it out, they actually have some real documented test results of peoples test that came back negative!

  • Ahhh your shea butter mix looks awesome! I want some of that pure stuff like you have, all I ever see around here is the yellow crappy looking kind :(

  • Can I use wheat germ oil as a substitute as Vitamin E???

  • @Aquaneta yes girl... any oil of your choice

  • @cakehaslayers I got mine from an African store (they sold, like, African movies, spices, cultural foods, and stuff). I think if you have any African-Caribbean-Latino stores around you, they probably have it there. I've seen it in beauty shops, too, but I think you might get a better deal from the African places.

  • I had to stop and think when I heard you say "Pound Shop" @ 1:58. All I could think of was a dog pound and a pawn shop, lol. I was like, "What kind of pawn shop would sell that?"..lol, I feel so slow. I realized it's like what we have here in the U.S. - the Dollar Store. *turning five shades of red*

    (or at least I think it's the equivalent. Correct me if I'm wrong. Always willing to learn something new)

  • @TheLordsPrecious lmao yes.. pound as in £ and $

  • Where could I buy pure Shea butter from in england?

  • I want some shea butter from Ghana!!! Share!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

  • @GorgeousCurlyDreamer i'll send you some of my next mix but you have to remind me

  • @FusionofCultures Awwww yaay!!! That would be so awesome. I was actually thinking about sending you a few items that you may or may not have had a chance to try that were only sold in the U.S. (once I move and get settled in my new place later this month) How much is shipping do you know??

  • @GorgeousCurlyDreamer oh where are you moving to? it cost me £4 and some change so ship the shea to the lady that won it in the states but i'm not sure how much it is from yours to here. I dont want you to have to spend too much money. 

  • I love your mixture I actually made some for my hair which is relaxed and I love the way it makes it feel..Thanks for sharing with us!!!!!!

  • Where do you buy shea butter? Can this be bought from a whole foods store?

  • Fellow Americans: where do you generally find your shea butter and coconut oil?

  • @cakehaslayers I purchase coconut oil (the Parachute brand in the blue bottle) from an Indian/Middle easter supermarket. My mother brings shea butter from Nigeria and if not, I purchase from an African market or online from oils by nature, butters n bars, camden grey, texas natural supply etc. Hope this helps. :)

  • @cakehaslayers shea butter from my local beauty supply store, but there are tons of online stores that sell it, and i get my coconut oil from the vitamin shoppe.com, its the spectrum brand, unrefined of course :), hope this helps

  • I like this video. Ghana Shea Butter Pure. I love it. Its so creamy. What type of of Coconut oil is that like the brand???

  • how often do you use your "shea goodness"??? like every day, every other day, orrr what?

  • how many vitamin E capsules do you use?

  • @CTforshort i used about 8 maybe... i cant remember

  • I would love to receive the mix. I have Tried to whip my mix but it seems to be a bit grainy. It melts ones it hits body temperature but my mix doesn't come out creamy. I ordered the Western African Shea butter

  • There are so many cute and funny parts in this video like @ 0:44 and @ 1:16 you sound like Nicki Minaj. :)

  • @BeesOHoney lol Hey Honey!!!!

  • I love ur accent!!!

  • Hi, where exactly do you get the shea butter that you use?

  • Pick me...because I could probably never get my hands on REAL pure Shea butter!

  • I would love to win it because you, Leila, made it. And I can thus delude myself into believing my hair's gonna look like yours next year - hair texture difference notwithstanding. :D

  • I would love to win it because I love to use Shea Butter!!

  • I love your hair!! I would love some of this yummy looking Shea Butter because I'm newly natural and my hair is lacking the moisture that it needs! It's so dry and I know that this concoction would be perfect for me:)

    xoxo maya!

  • i would love to win because my hair loves shea butter and your mix looks simply wonderful :)

    and btw i had your into music stuck in my head for days ! i was walkin around the house goin "lalala la la la la " and i couldnt figure out where it was from lol

  • i'd like to win bc my hair could use some "shea goodness"! i'm transitioning to natural and i'm sort of a product junkie and i'd like to stick to ONE product and i believe this just might do the trick :)

  • I absolutely love your intro! Wow, your Shea Goodness is truly whipped! Came out great!

  • Quick question: is the "pound shoppe" there the equivalent of the "dollar store" here in the U.S.?

  • thx i made this yesterday

  • I want to win your shea butter because it seems like it would do some wonders for my hair! I am looking for a concoction to help my hair grow thicker and just keep my hair moisturized and healthy, it would be nice to see if your product does the trick.

  • I want it because my hair is jacked up..!(forreal) and i want it to look like urz :)..

    Go naturalz

  • ok so i had a separate question below. please enter me for your lovely shea mixture :) and I would love a container of shea love because I just cut my hair less than 2 months ago, after transitioning for a year and 2 months. Love your top and chop video. I'm a new subbie and enjoying your vid.s so far/ thx

  • I want your Shea Goodness because it looks like cake frosting!!(:

  • where do you purchase your shea

  • I would love to win the shea butter mix because I've been wanting to get some shea butter since foreverrrrr. Okay, February. Not really forever but, I can't afford to buy any for myself (it's so expensive) so I'd love to get some from you if possible ^_^

  • Im going natural, again (lol). I do use coconut oil by itself for hair and skin, but I want the smoothie because it has real shea butter in it. I just bought shea butter, but it yellow :-(

  • I'd like to win because my own attempts at mixing a Shea butter moisturizer have been disastrous. Ans it's hard finding a moisturizer with good ingredients and no artificial fragrances.

  • I'd like to win it because I NEVER win anything :*( If I don't win, then you should feel bad because I didn't win anything again. Be the one to change this vicious cycle that's attributing to my unhappiness Laila!!! You can do it!!! That is all...
