Oh my goodness. I am really thankful that I have stumbled across your videos. I purchased some shea butter about three weeks ago. At first I wasn't too sure about using it when I flat iron my hair because I worry about having that heavy feeling to my hair when I use similar products. BUT like you said in your video, you really don't need that much at all and Im truly happy with my results! My hair looks and feels healthy and it's flowy. I hope you realize that you and your insight are a blessing

@ladydipset88 good question...i just looked it up and found this on ehow(dot)com:

Heat Protection

•Protect African hair during heat styling by using shea butter. Shea Butter absorbs quickly into the hair without leaving a greasy feel. Yet it coats the hair strand to protect against heat damage while it allows for smooth passing of the heat appliance over the hair.

[ladydipset88]

Is shea butter a heat protectant?

[MeekaJael]

@mzsongzbaby flat iron with shea buter...make sure the flat iron is as hot as your hair can handle...dont take so much hair at a time when running the iron through it...avoid chuncks of hair...try to flat iron streaks of hair not uneven chunks.

vauno,

@babiixcrazii It's bad to use heat on your hair in general :x there are certain oils and butters that will cook your hair bc of the melting and boiling points but I mean it's the same for serums and other things like that. I use the shea butter and it does wonders against heat damage; I wear my hair curly 90% of the time so I need something that won't destroy my curls. I'd rather use a food grade product than laden my hair w silicones and chemicals bc they absorb into your body anyway and cook
