So after using the Ladine Hair Softener Leave-In conditioner, I think I found yet another staple product. After a long search and asking every African (Nigerian, Congolese, Mozambican) hair stylist on where I can find the ever popular Shea Butter mo Mzanzi with no success,  I decided to go online eye-shopping and see if I can find it somewhere. So, I finally found an online shop based in the Motherland (Cape Town) and found the very last in stock of 100ml Kenyan Shea Butter here

It’s good shem. I put it on my hair every morning, followed by a few natural oils (mostly coconut and olive oil) then voila, instant softness & shine.

Volume: 100ml

Price: R79.00
Ingredients: Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)…yes yona feela. lol. It doesn’t get more natural than this. I’m happy.

Like the Ladine Leave-in a little really goes a lllllong way. I’m ordering another one soon. Definitely going into my list of staple products. Now if I can find a good alcohol-free gel. The search continues, I guess.

Love,
Matlhodi

  1. OMG you guys!!! I came to the site today SPECIFICALLY to ask if you guys knew anywhere to get Shea Butter!!! Craziness!!! I’ve been dying to try it for the longest time and haven’t been able to find it anywhere! (I couldn’t bring myself to pay the crazy shipping costs from Amazon.com) Thanks so much…I’ll def be ordering some soon! Now, if only I could find some 100% Aloe Vera Gel ;) Keep up the great work on the site! :)

  2. Kenya does not produce Shea butter. This plant grows naturally in West Africa, mainly Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Sierra Leonne.

    You can find pure Shea butter produc at that site: http://www.karilor.bf/Karilor-presentation.htm

    • Hi lol…I am aware that it’s produced on that side of the world. All I was doing was share the product I found online that I bought & found that it’s working. Why it’s called Kenyan Shea butter, I couldn’t be bothered. Thanks for the info though.
