Thanks for the video it was super helpful....I just bought some shea butter and dont have a mixer either. So thanks, I tried using my blender after softing the shea butter at room temp. it wasnt what i expected and I was some what disappointed but now im happy because i re-did it your way and i think its going to work better this time. I kinda let it melt more than I wanted but Im going to let it cool at room temp so fingers crossed:)
@meandmyself364 You can store it at room temp so it can stay soft or in the fridge where it will harden. I bought my raw shea butter from the website butters-n-bars
Question??? Does the shea butter stop up your drain?? My husband is certain that it is. I don't know. He's being trying for 3 weeks to get the drain free flowing, and when we shower, we stand in 1-1/2 in water :(..... Help!!
If you drink coffee, pour the grinds down the sink! Two people have told me that it keeps their plumbing running without a hitch, it like fibre going through the pipes :P
I am Jamaican too (heard the accent speaking to ur baby lol...) so this is it i live in Utah, where its very dry and my hair and skin is suffering, i make my own coconut oil, mi granny teach mi...lol, but shea is very good too so i need to know if there is an online store where i could get the raw shea butter..to mix wid di olive oil...cause I cannot find it here.
@MrJwad50 u can email me so that i can get u some..am in ghana and my email is aminushak@yahoo.com...my number is oo233243889137 or u can cotact imani in usa +1 314.643.6067
I do not have a hand mixer either so I appreciate this video and I love that it was informative, straight to the point and the kids were adorable, "I love shea butter!" lol
Thanks for sharing! Where do you purchase your Shea Butter and oils? Do you use the mixer in your hair as well? Can you use the butter without the oils? Please inbox me. Thanks again!
Question: I have a severe allergy to all types of nuts, so is there a substitute that you can use for the sweet almond oil, or do I just leave it out altogether? Great video, by the way!
If you need a hand-mixer my friend of mine recommended me to go to ''Goodwill'' . Soak the blades in some bleach and water. Found a nice kitchen aid in the box 4.39 :D.
i tried using a mixer just the other day (it was from another tutorial i saw on shea butter) mine didnt turn out so great. i am gonna have to try mxing it by hand my ownself!
Great tutorial! And I don't have a hand mixer either. Watching over Shea Butter Mix videos they would always put castor oil in their mix. I don't have that on hand right now, but I DO have glycerin which is the same consistency. Thanks for this!
I did Shea Butter with olive oil and it made my skin so dry I followed your instructions and made my own Shea Butter, thanks so much as \I thought you had to have a hand mixer.. I used it on my skin and felt the difference
i agree adding more oils to it makes the mixture softer and easier to hand mix. Also, i used the microwave to melt the shea butter. The defrost setting works very well so that the butter barely melts.. it just softens it up, take it out, mix it with spoon and add other ingredients.
i really appreciate that you have made this video.. when i received my shea butter in it's raw state, i thought "what am i going to do with all of this?" thank you so very much!
shea butter and black soap are essentially the same. The main difference is the black soap is shea thats been created by laying the stalks over hot coals and all the nutrients from the tree bark itself are included in the butter as well. I make a really cool black soap using the traditonal african black soap. I loved my whipped shea as well, but I dont use a hand mixer I whip it in the blender to get it etrxa fluffy and incorporate more air into the whipped butter along with my oils.
I just started using African Black soap and also my own whipped shea butter mix today. I hope to get the same results as you in regards to the black soap.
@kahluaqdee You should I think black soap and shea butter can work for everyone. That is all I use on my hair and body as well as my kids hair and body.
wow very nice...this is the very first video without a mixer....i never thought it will come out that nice without a mixer...i don't have one so i'm gonna try to do it with a spoon or fork....i also like the fact that your daughter's voice was in the background...
@ciara844 Yea it came out really soft just make sure you don't melt it fully or it will harden. I think a fork works better to stir it up and get the lumps out. I am hopeing to get a hand mixer soon. How have you been?
@NeicyGoingNatural alright...thanks for the tip....i'm doing good actually been very busy...i see you little one is turning one soon...wow time does fly...
@ciara844 Yup she will be one next month time did fly seems like just the other day I was in the hospital giveing birth. I am so happy I made those update vids while I was pregnant and after I had her I was just looking back on them the other day smileing. How old is your daughter now?
@NeicyGoingNatural oh she'll be 10 months on the 28th of this month....she already started walking...and she likes to dance alot lol...i'm gonna update you guys very soon so you can see her.

But i didn't melt my shea butter in heat like you did..
If you just let it sit out in room temperature to just become soft your shea butter mixture will come out fluffy it won't harden up like it does.
