Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter)

What it is

A natural fat extracted from the nuts of the shea tree, used as a deep moisturizer and sealant in conditioners, hair masks, and styling creams.

Why it matters for curly hair

Shea butter is a CG-approved ingredient that provides rich, deep moisture and helps seal hydration into the hair shaft. It is especially beneficial for high-porosity and thick, coily hair types that need heavier products. For low-porosity or fine hair, it can be too heavy and may cause buildup if used too frequently, so it is best matched to your hair type.
